Abstract

This study was carried out to examine the protective effect of Cultured Wild Ginseng(CWG) on the acute and subacute toxicities induced by doxorubicin(Doxo) in mice. Heart and liver weight was decreased following Doxo administration. In contrast, such a decrease was significantly attenuated by CWG administration. The value of serum CPK in Doxo group was increased compared with normal group. But the value of CWG group were decreased significantly compared with the values of Doxo group in the liver of the Doxo group, cloudy swelling of hepatic cells and narrowing of sinusoids were observed. Whereas in the CWG group, well oriented hepatic cell cords and sinusoids were observed. In the testis of the Doxo group, necrotic and degenerative changes of the seminiferous tubules, especially beneath testicular membrane were observed. But those lesions were alleviated in CWG group. Cross sectional area of testis and diameter of semineferous tubule were significantly increased in CWG group compared with Doxo group. Body weight was reduced in Doxo group compared with normal group. In contrast, such a decrease was significantly attenuated by CWG administration atwa5th day. Spermatogenetic cells in seminiferous tubules were necrotic and desquamated and the cellularity of seminiferous epithelia was reduced in Doxo group. But those lesions were attenuated by CWG administration. Cross sectional area of testis and diameter of seminiferous tubule were significantly increased in CWG group compared with Doxo group. In addition, the increase in lipid peroxidation(LPO) in testis was inaddition, the, iout such a increased was significantly inhibited in CWG group. BrdU labelled cells in the seminiferous tubules were remarkably decreased in Doxo group. Whereas the number of seminiferous tubules labelled with BrdU in spermatogonia was increased by CWG administration. The obtained results suggest that CWG has protective effect on doxorubicin-induced toxicity. This effect might be mediated through the supplementation of vital energy.
