BACKGROUND: Portulaca grandiflora is a tiny, upright herb that contains a variety of chemical components, including alkaloids, glycosides, mucilage, proteins, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, polysaccharides, and triterpenoids possessing properties that may help with atherosclerosis. The reported pharmacological properties of Portulaca grandiflora are antioxidant, antidiabetic, antiasthmatic, antibacterial, antiulcer and anti-inflammatory properties.
OBJECTIVES: The yield of methanol extract is higher than that of ethanol and acetone, and its phytoconstituents, like flavonoids and polyphenols, and has potent antioxidant properties. In order to determine the effectiveness ofPortulaca grandiflora methanol extract fraction against high-fat diet (HFD)-induced hyperlipidemia, hemodynamic change, antioxidant levels, and vascular dysfunction in rats, a study was carried out on a flavonoid-rich methanol extract fraction of the aerial part of Portulaca grandiflora Hook.
METHODS: This method involves a study of 30 days involving male Wistar rats (240-250 g) (n=5) that were fed with an Ath diet. Study groups were divided into (i) The Control Group, (ii) the Diseases Control Group, (iii) Disease + Standard drug (Atorvastatin 20mg/kg, orally, (iv) Disease + Test Extract dose 1 (Portulaca grandiflora 200mg/kg orally), and (v) Disease + Test Extract dose 2 (Portulaca grandiflora 400mg/kg orally). Both the test drug Portulaca grandiflora and the standard drug Atorvastatin were given orally for 30 days.
RESULTS: At the end of the study, blood samples were taken to measure the serum lipid profile, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, and levels of oxidative tissue stress. Hemodynamic parameters and aortic staining were performed. Portulaca grandiflora treatment improved the lipid profile and considerably reduced oxidative stress levels. Aortic staining examination revealed a marked reduction in atherosclerotic lesions.
CONCLUSION: These results revealed that Portulaca grandiflora is an effective treatment approach in preventing atherosclerotic lesion progression, which is attributed to its protection against oxidative stress and various enzymatic activities in the Atherogenic model.
