RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the action and the mechanism of Jinyin granule(JYG) on cholecystitis in guinea pigs.Methods Cholecystitis models of Guinea pigs were established and then randomly divided into six groups: normal group,model group,XiaoYanLiDan tablet(XYLDT) group,treatment groups including low,middle and high dosage groups of JYG.The Pigs were given above drugs respectively while in normal and model groups the same volume of normal saline was given.Body weight,gallbladder weight,bile amount,IL-1? in the serum were measured and gallbladder pathological tissue was observed by light microscopy.Results Comparing with the model group,the treatment groups had higher body weight,lower gallbladder weight,less bile amount,obviously slighter inflammation and less amount of IL-1? in the serum.Conclusion JYG possesses the therapeutic action to cholecystitis on guinea pigs and its mechanism is interrelated to the decreasing of IL-1? in the serum.
