RESUMO
objective To explore the mechanism of Naotaitong granule on ischemic apoplexy by observing the effect of Naotaitong granule on ischemic apoplexy model. Methods128 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, console group, experimental group and control group. Ischemic apoplexy model were established in all the animals. Different disposal was given to different group. In the 7 d、 10 d、 14 d、21 d and 28 d after drug administration, immunohistochemistry were used to evaluate the expression of Slit2 and VEGF. In addition, behavior alteration and HE staining were applied to evaluate the variation of brain tissue neuron. ResultsAll the animals revealed hemiplegia and cerebral tissue softened after successfully establishing apoplexy model. The morphology of experimental group and control group was improved after drug administration with softened focus obviously reduced. Longa grade of console group in the 7 d、 10 d、 14 d、 21 d and 28 d was (2.92±0.20)、 (2.58±0.20)、 (2.25±0.27)、 (1.83±0.26) and (1.42±0.20) respectively. Longa grade of Naotaitong group in the 7 d、 10 d、 14 d、 21 d and 28 d was (1.92±0.20)、 (1.50±0.32)、 (1.25±0.27)、(0.83 ±0.26) and (0.50±0.00) respectively. Longa grade of control group in the 7 d、 10 d、 14 d、 21 d and 28 d was (2.33±0.41)、 (2.00±0.45)、 (1.75±0.27)、 (1.33±0.41) and (0.92±0.38) respectively. Longa grade of both control and Naotaitong group had statistics significance compared with the console group (P＜0.01) .Conclusion Naotaitong granule may improve anoxemia in rats brain and protect brain tissue.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the mechanism of preventive effect of Chinese medicine with Replenishing kidney and invigorating Qi on osteoarthritis. Methods 72 male Long-eared white rabbits aged 4 months were randomly divided into six groups, A group (blank control group), B group (model group), C group (traditional Chinese medicine high-dose prevention group), D group (Chinese herbal medicine with medium-dose prevention group), E group (Chinese herbal medicine with low-dose prevention group), F group (glucose-amino acid hydrochloride capsules prevention group).All the animals apart from A group were established osteoarthritis model by immobilizing knee joint with plaster cast for 6 weeks. In the same time of immobilization, traditional Chinese medicine and glucose-amino acid hydrochloride capsules were given to C, D, E and F group for 4 weeks. Physiological saline was given to B group. After 6 weeks of modeling, synovial fluid was extracted and the changes of TNF-α in it were analyzed by ELISA. Results Articular cartilage degeneration of B group was most obviously compared with C, D, E and F group. There was a significant difference of TNF-α level in comparison of A and B group (P＜0.05), B and C, D, E and F group (P＜0.05), and among C, D and E group. Conclusion Chinese medicine with replenishing kidney and invigorating Qi can prevent osteoarthritis by reducing TNF-α level in synovial fluid, enhancing cartilage cell metabolism, and slowing down cartilage degradation.
