RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of different ratios of ginsenosides(GS) and panax notoginsenosides(PNS),which are extracted from Qi-strengthening herbs of Radix Ginseng and blood-activating herbs of Radix Notoginseng respectively,on rats peritoneal mesothelial cells(PMCs) in peritoneal dialysis solution(PDS).Methods PMCs were isolated from rat peritoneal membrane by trypsin digestion method,and then a stable PMCs culture model was established.PMCs were pre-exposed in 4.25% PDS for 3 hours,and then respectively grew in culture solution with different ratios of GS or PNS for 6 hours.The capacity of proliferation of rat PMCs was assessed by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay.Results GS 100?g/mL and PNS 80?g/mL showed protective effect on the proliferation of injured PMCs in PDS(P 0.05).Conclusion The combination of GS and PNS,which are extracted from Qi-strengthening herbs of Radix Ginseng and blood-activating herbs of Radix Notoginseng respectively,exerts certain protective effect on PMCs in peritoneal dialysis solution.
