ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To optimize the extraction technology of Duoxuekang. METHODS:Using comprehensive score of salidroside,gallic acid content and extraction yield as indexes,U6(63)uniform design was designed to optimize the liquid-solid ra-tio,ethanol volume fraction and extraction time of Duoxuekang,then optimize extraction times,and verification test was conduct-ed. RESULTS:The optimal extraction technology was as follows as 50% ethanol,liquid-solid ratio of 1:14,soaking time of 1.5 h,reflux extraction for 1 h and repeated twice;the average extraction yield in 3 tests was 50.18%,contents of salidroside and gal-lic acid were 1.82 mg/g,16.54 mg/g (RSD≤0.84%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:The optimized extraction technology for Duox-uekang is reasonable,simple and feasible.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect of Tibetan medicine Compound Duoxuekang capsules on the acute lung injury in mice induced by lipopolysaccharide. METHODS:60 KM mice were randomly divided into blank group,model group,dexamethasone group (positive control,1 mg/kg) and Compound Duoxuekang high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups (3.6,1.8,0.9 g/kg,calculated by crude drug),10 in each group. Intragastrically administrated,mice in blank group and model group intragastrically administrated equal volume of normal saline,once a day. After 7 d of administration,except for blank group, mice in other groups intraperitoneally injected lipopolysaccharide to induce acute lung injury. After 6 h modeling,pathological changes in the lung tissue was observed,lung tissue water content was measured,superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxi-dase(GSH-Px),malondialdehyde(MDA)levels in lung tissue and IL-6,TNF-α levels in serum were detected. RESULTS:Com-pared with blank group,mice in model group showed pathological changes in congestion and edema,inflammatory cell infiltra-tion,obvious widened alveolar septum and alveolar wall;water content in lung tissue and IL-6,TNF-αlevels in serum were signifi-cantly increased (P<0.01);SOD,GSH-Px levels in lung tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with model group,injury degree of lung tissue reduced to varying degrees in each treatment group,except for the water content,MDA level in lung tissue and TNF-α level in serum in Compound Duoxuekang capsules low-dose group;the above-mentioned indexes in other groups were significantly improved (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Compound Duoxuekang capsules can obviously re-duce mice's oxidative stress and inflammatory response,and has certain protective effect on acute lung injury in mice.
