摘　　要：AIM: To study the effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction(BYHWD) on the antioxidant enzymes and drug-metabolizing enzymes in rat liver. METHOD: Following treatment of rats with BYHWD at 6.42, 12.83, or 25.66 g·kg–1 per day for 15 days, microsomes and cytosols isolated from the liver tissues were prepared by differential centrifugation according to standard procedures. The activities of the antioxidant enzymes and cytochrome b5, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, CYP3 A, CYP2E1, UGT, and GST of the rat livers were determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. RESULTS: The activities of ALT, AST, antioxidant enzymes, and the Hepatosomatic Index in serum were not significantly affected. In cytosols, the activity of CAT was significantly increased at the dosage of 12.83 g·kg–1, and all the other antioxidant activities and MDA levels were not affected by this treatment. BYHWD had no effect on cytochrome b5, NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase, CYP3 A, and UGT. At the highest dose(25.66 g·kg–1), the activity of CYP2E1 was significantly inhibited, and the activities of GST and the level of GSH were increased. CONCLUSION: BYHWD is safe for the liver, and has the functions of detoxification and antioxidant. Patients should be cautioned about the herb-drug interaction of BYHWD and CYP2E1 substrates.AIM： To study the effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction （BYHWD） on the antioxidant enzymes and drug-metabolizing enzymes in rat liver.
