摘要：
We investigated the protective effect of Yang-Gan-Wan (YGW, Pro-Liver pill), a Chinese herbal remedy, against liver apoptosis (programmed cell death) induced by anti-Fas antibody (Jo2). Mice were pretreated daily with 200 mg/kg YGW for 14 days before treatment with 10 mug/20 kg body weight Jo2. YGW significantly reduced the elevated activity of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and also reduced the elevated activity of sorbitol dehydrogenase (SDH) produced 4 hrs after treatment with Jo2. YGW also increased the survival of mice treated with Jo2 by about 1 hr in 11 out of 16 mice (69 %). Most of the mice died 9 hrs after Jo2 injection. This study demonstrates that YGW has protective effects against liver apoptosis induced by Jo2.
