Effect of plant remedy «Polynoophyt» on energy metabolism of white rats in the early postanesthesia period

Abstract

The problem of preventing the development of metabolic disorders in the early postanesthesia period is relevant in modern anesthesiology and pharmacology. This article is devoted to pharmacological correction of energy metabolism in the liver and brain of white rats by phytoremedy «Polynoophyt» in the early postanesthesia period after application of sodium thiopental. The experiments were performed on 33 white Wistar rats. The content ATP as the main macroergic component and energy-supply metabolites (lactate and pyruvate) was determined. It shown that the course administration of «Polynoophyt» resulted to rising of ATP content in the liver and brain at 68% (p < 0,05) and 54% (p < 0,05) compared with the control, respectively. Furthermore, the ratio of lactate/pyruvate decreased indicating the normalization of the intensity of glycolytic and oxidative transformation of carbohydrates into the liver and brain. It should be emphasized that the phytoremedy «Polynoophyt» reduced the concentration of lactate in the liver and brain in 2,5 and 1,6 times respectively. The pyruvate content in brain increased at 45% (p < 0,05) accelerating the ATP resynthesis. The effect of energy-supply improvement was caused by the presence of a complex of biologically active substances (flavonoids, tannins, polysaccharides etc.) providing a wide range of pharmacological actions.
