ABSTRACT
The aim of research is to unveil the mechanisms of the beneficial effects of XYD on PCIV in a rabbit model. 40 New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups,including normal control group (NC), model control group (MC), low-dose of XYD group (LXYD), high-dose of XYD group (HXYD) and Yang-Xue-Qin-Nao group (YXQN). PCIV rabbit model was established by feeding high-fat diet companied with paravertebral sclerotherapy and rotation exercise. The general observation, step-down test, rheoencephalogram, blood tests, histopathological detection and the plasma concentration of the effective component of XYD were investigated. After pharmacological intervening, the step-down time, REG, PL, IPL, blood viscosity, the levels of blood lipids, CRGP were significantly improved. Moreover, the vertebral artery showed the reduced stenosis of arterial lumen and less proliferation of fibrous tissue in the arterial wall in the LXYD, HXYD and YXQN group. Based on the LC-MS detection, the blood concentrations of puerarin in the LXYD and HXYD group were significantly increased after pharmacological intervening. XYD could ameliorate the symptoms of vertigo, Qi-deficiency and blood stasis in PCIV rabbits via effectively regulating the levels of blood lipids and vasoactive substances, decreasing blood viscosity, increasing CBF and protecting vestibular function.

Objective To investigate stilbene glycosides(TSG) and PNS concomitantly on PC12 cell survival rate of Alzheimer's disease.Methods The nerve cells that were seeded on the two culture plates were cultured for 1 day after the removal of primary culture fluid.In addition to the blank group, the model group and drug compatibility group were added 5 μl Aβ25-35 perpore to induced PC12 cell damage.To established AD cell damage model after exposure to the circumstances for 24 hours.Uniform design and factorial design were used respectively.After 1 d, using MTT method in ELISA analyzer measured the OD value of each pore, and calculating the survival rate of cells.Results The uniform design results showed that the cell survival rate was significantly linear with TSG and PNS (P＜0.05).From the equation, The higher the dose, the higher the cell survival rate.In this experimental condition, TSG and PNS respectively 50 mg/L, 200 mmol/L achieved the highest cell survival rate.2×2 factorial design experiments showed that, compared with the model group, the cell survival rate of TSG-PNS group (74.46％ ± 2.06％ vs.65.42％ ± 1.42％) increased (P＜0.05), but there was no interaction between the two groups (P=0.053).This showed that the combination of the two drugs in this dose has a protective effect on AD damage.Conclusion The compatibility of total saponins of two stilbene glucoside and three seven combination has the synergistic effect of anti AD damage.
