ABSTRACT
The protective function of five traditional herb medicines, namely anisodamine,escin,salvia miltiorrhizae radix,astragalus root and ecdysterone, in cultured HUVECs challenged by LPS. ATP,ADP,AMP and energy charge were measured in cultured HUVECs challenged by LPS after treatment with five herb medicines. The results showed that energy charge of HUVECs decreased after LPS challenge,and increased significiantly more afer the addition of escin,radix astragali and ecdysterone than other herbs.It suggested that escin, astragalus and ecdysterone can protect HUVECs from injury induced by LPS.
