ABSTRACT
Diabetes is a common clinical disease, with glucose and lipid metabolism disorder as the main clinical manifestation. The spleen of middle jiao can transport and transform the essence of grain and water. It is also the source of qi and blood, which also provides material foundation for the glucose and lipid metabolism. The spleen deficiency and dampness stasis can lead to the phlegm and blood stagnation, which are closely related to high sugar, high fat, high blood coagulation and vascular endothelial damage. This article discussed the relationship between the changes of spleen function of middle jiao and glucose and lipid metabolism, and provided some theoretical methods for clinical prevention and treatment of diabetes.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of bronchial asthma in rats treated by Chuanzhuping,a prescription which has the function of dispersing lung Qi and invigorating spleen Qi,and explore its possible mechanism.Method Thirty-two male Wistar rats of SPF level were divided into four groups randomly:control group(A),asthma group(B),Dexamethasone group(C) and Xiaozhuping group(D).Except group A,the others were established animal model of asthma.After drawing materials,hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staining were performed.The pathological changes in bronchopulmonary tissue of rats were detected.The basementmembrane perimeter(Pbm),the airwaywall area(Wat) and the smooth musclewall area(Wam) were measured and calculated by using image analysis system.The concentration of transforming growth factor-?1(TGF-?1) in bronchopulmonary tissue was observed by immunohistochemical method and the integral optical density(IOD values) of it was measured.Results In bronchopulmonary tissue of group B,Wat,Wam and the concentration of TGF-?1 increased,and were significantly different from that in group A(P0.05).In group D,the concentration of TGF-?1 decreased and was significantly different from that in group C(P
