ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the effects of the disassembled recipes of Dahuang Zhechong Pill (DRDZP) on proliferation and apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) of thoracic aorta in atherosclerotic rabbits.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The atherosclerotic rabbit model was induced by high-cholesterol diet and immune injury of endothelium. Expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in VSMC was detected by SP immunohistochemical technique, and VSMC apoptosis was observed with TUNEL technique.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the model control, PCNA expression in VSMC decreased, while apoptotic cells increased significantly in all the groups treated by DR-DZP (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>All the DR-DZP could inhibit VSMC proliferation and promote its apoptosis to modulate the balance between cell proliferation and apoptosis, so as to exert antiatherosclerotic action, among which the disassembled-recipe I is the main composition to contribute to antiatherosclerotic action of Dahuang Zhechong Pill.</p>
