ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Xinmailong (XML), Xiangdan (XD) and Shenmai (SM) Injection on early kidney damage induced by toxin of grass carp bile (GCB) and provide experimental evidence for Chinese medicine in treating toxication of GCB. METHODS: GCB (6ml/kg) was administered orally to adult SD rats to induce the model of GCB intoxication and a single intraperitoneal injection of XML, XD or SM was administered 10 min later. RESULTS: It was found that the levels of blood creatinine and blood urea nitrogen were decreased and the creatinine clearance rate was increased by XML, XD or SM. Degenerated epithelial cells of proximal convoluted tubules and glomeruli containing red blood cells in saccular cavities were decreased as compared with the normal group (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The Chinese medicine XML, XD and SM Injection have therapeutic effects on early kidney damage induced by toxin of GCB.
