<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To quantitatively analyze the effect of modified Biejiajian Pill (BJJP) on the pathological change and degree of albumin induced immune hepatic fibrosis in rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Rats were immunized by multiple subcutaneous injections of human serum albumin (8 g/L) , and were medicated in groups respectively after antibody producing, BJJP high-dose (13 g/kg) group, medium-dose (6.5 g/kg) group, low-dose (3.25 g/kg) group, the model group, colchicines (1.0 mg/kg) group, and Ganpikang (22.23 mg/kg) group. Then, caudal vein injection of albumin was given 40 min after medication to induce liver fibrosis. Animals were sacrificed finally to observe the pathological change, and the distribution and content of collagen and plastin were determined quantitatively with HE and Masson stain.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>BJJP high-, medium-, and low-dose groups could obviously improve the pathological change of the hepatic fibrosis rats (decreasing rate of the total score was 62.50%, 40.75%, and 8.33%, respectively), and the content of collagen reduced markedly (P<0.05, P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>BJJP can effectively prevent and reduce the pathological change of albumin induced immune hepatic fibrosis in rats.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the influence of one Chinese herbal extract complex (GETO) on the expression of corticotropin-releasing factor(CRF) and protein kinasec(PKC) proteins of the hippocampus in middle cerebral artery orilusion(MCAO) rats.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>All rats were subjected to MCAO by nylon thread, except the sham-group rats. Rats were divied into four groups: sham-group, cerebral ischemia model-group, GETO-group(6. 1 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) )and Duxil-group (7.3 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)). Using immunohistochemistry technique we measured the expression quantity of CRF and PKC protein in hippocampus of MCAO rats at 2 h,6 h and 24 h after reperfusion, contrasted to Duxil.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>CRF: There were lots of positive and deeper dyeing neurons in hippocampus of model-group rats, while there were a few of positive and lighter dyeing neurons in sham-group, GETO-group and Duxil-group. The positive expression areas of CRF protein in hippocampus of model-group was significantly bigger than that of sham-group, GETO -group and Duxil-group respectively( P <0. 01). PKC: There were a great number of denser positive granules in hippocampus of model-group rats, while there were a few of scattered positive granules in sham-group, GETO-group and Duxil-group. The positive expression areas of CRF protein in hippocampus of model-group was significantly bigger than that of sham-group, GETO-group and Duxil-group respectively( P < 0. 01). At the same time there was not significant difference about the expression of CRF and PKC protein between GETO group and Duxil-group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The high expression of CRF and PKC induced by cerebral ischemia may be one important factor that resulted in the delayed neuronal death in hippocampus. GETO can down-regulate the expression of CRF and PKC induced by cerebral ischemia, which may be one of the mechanisms that the Chinese herbal extract complex, protect cerebral ischemic injury.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the influence of Kingsbrain (GETO) on the learning memory impairment of rats with cerebral ischemia.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Rats with cerebral ischemia were administered GETO orally once a day for one month. The ability of spatial-learning memory of rats was evaluated by Morris Water Maze (MWM). Duxil was used as a positive control.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>the results of place navigation of MWM showed that at the 3rd time of swimming training, the escape latency of rats of the GETO group, Duxil group and Sham group were shorter than that of model group. The escape latency were (54.1 +/- 43.94), (55.9 +/- 43.49), (50.4 +/- 34.99) and (85.4 +/- 42.8) s, respectively; but there was no significantly difference. After the 6th time of swimming training, the escape latency of rats of the GETO group (37.8 +/- 38.69) s, the Duxil group (37.4 +/- 38.03) s and the sham group (26.9 +/- 21.63) s were significantly shorter than that of model rats (77.5 +/- 47.59) s, P < 0.05, respectively. Comparison of the swimming distance among groups were similar to the escape latency among groups. In the test of spatial probe, results of the ratio of the swimming time of platform quadrant (tP) vs the total swimming time (tT) and the ratio of the swimming distance of platform quadrant (dP) vs the total swimming distance (dT) indicated that the ratios of the GETO group (0.347 +/- 0.0662, 0.344 +/-0.055 1), the Duxil group (0.345 +/- 0.0984, 0.34 +/- 0.0934) and the sham group (0.35 +/- 0.0662, 0.349 +/- 0.0589) were significantly higher than those of the Model group (0.261 +/- 0.0689, 0.274 +/- 0.0544), P < 0.05, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>GETO can significantly improve the spatial learning and memory ability of rats with cerebral ischemia, which provides the pharmacodynamics evidence for its clinical application of improveing the learning and memory ability in poststroke patients.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the protection and treatment effects of Kudan granule on rats of pulmonary fibrosis induced by pinyangmycin.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>In asepsis condition, rat was anaesthetized by 3.5% chloral hydrate, inserted the needle above the bifurcation of trachea and injecting 5 mg x kg(-1) pinyangmycin normal saline solution.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>For model-group rats, after injecting pinyangmycin at 7, 14, 28, 56 days, there were mass inflammation cell infiltration at pulmonary alveoli and interstitial, the pulmonary alveolar wall and interstitial thickened obviously, and the pulmonary interval broadened distinctly. The structure of collagen fiber was destroyed, and the pulmonary alveoli disappeared. By Masson dyeing, there were hunk collagen fiber and the consolidation of lung had come into being. Compared with the model group, the rats of Kudan granule big-dose group, at 7, 14, 28, 56 days after injecting pinyangmycin, there were still much inflammation cell infiltration at pulmonary alveoli and interstitial, pulmonary interstitial edema and spotty necrosis, thickened alveolar wall, broadened pulmonary interval, and much collagen fiber in pulmonary interstitial, but there was not bunk the consolidation of lung. The curative effect of Kudan granule small-dose group was not better than that of Kudan granule big-dose group, because there were still bunk collagen fiber and the consolidation of lung in pulmonary interstitial. Although the destroyed area was more than 50%, it was better than that of the model-group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The big-dose Kudan granule show the better function of protection and treatment for pulmonary fibrosis of rats induced by pinyangmycin.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To observe inhibiting effect of CGE (compound ginseng extract) on increased expression of IL-1beta and c-fos protein following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The vascular dementia model was made by middle cerebral artery occlusion for 2 hours. Expression of IL-1beta and c-fos were determined by immunohistochemistry in the hippocampus regions in brain tissue at the 0.5 h-7 d after reperfusion. CGE was diluted by CMC and poured into the stomach by 0.7 mL x (100 g)(-1) with a high dosage (19.34 x 10(3) g x L(-1) row herbs), a middle dosage (9.67 x 10(3) g x L(-1)), a low dosage (4.83 x 10(3) g x L(-1)). There were an IL-1ra (rhIL-1ra 20 microg injected into the left cerebral ventricle), a sham operation (NaCl 20 microL injected into the left cerebral ventricle) and a model as control.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Compared with control group, three dose groups (low, middle and high) in CGE showed significant inhibiting effects on the expression of c-fos protein at 2, 3, 4, 12 hours and 3 day following cerebral ischaemic-reperfusion. The level of the inhibiting effects in small and middle groups were lower at all time points than that in IL-1ra group (P < 0.05 to P < 0.01). CGE inhibited the expression of hippocampus IL-1beta protein, taking effect from the 2 h after reperfusion. Both HD group (531 +/- 151.1) and MD group (589.3 +/- 78.6) showed more obvious effect which lasted until the 72 h compared with the model group (687.6 +/- 116.7) (P < 0.01 and 0.05). Large dose group (81.3 +/- 16.1) showed the same level of the inhibiting effect on expression of c-fos protein as IL-1ra group (67.2 +/- 25.7) from 4 hour on following cerebral ischaemic reperfusion (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>CGE with function of Yiqi Bushen, Huoxue Huatan has effect of inhibiting up-regulated expression of IL-1beta and c-fos protein following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion. However, this effect of CGE starts relatively later than that of IL-1ra. The effect of CGE is associated with its dosage, i.e. a larger dosage has a better effect on expression of c-fos protein in post-stroke dementia.</p>
