ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of Bu Yang Huan Wu Tang on serum contents of microelements sunch as Zn,Cu,Fe,Se and Mn in spontaneously hypertensive rats-stroke prone(SHR/SP). Methods Twenty male SHR/SP of 8 weeks old were divided into two groups: treatment group(n=10),treatmemt with Bu Yang Huan Wu Tang;control group,taking normal feed.Ten WKY rats were served as blank group. The experiment lasted for three months,and the monitored parameters were serum contents of microelements such as Zn,Cu,Fe,Se and Mn. Results It was revealed that the serum contents of Zn,Mn and Se of the blank group were significantly higher than those of the treatment group(P0.05). Conclusion Bu Yang Huan Wu Tang may have regulatory effects on the serum contents of microelements such as Zn,Cu,Fe,Se and Mn in SHR/SP.
