ABSTRACT

@#ObjectiveTo study the therapeutic effect and mechanisms of nourishing Piyin Remedy (nPR) on experimental rat spinal cord injury.MethodsThirty-two healthy SD rats were divided into 2 equal groups randomly: nPR group and injured group. Animal model of incomplete injury of spinal cord was made by Allen's equipment on rat's T8—T9 segment. The spinal nerve function,SEP,retrograde and label technique of horse radish peroxidase,gross observation,histological and morphometric analysis were taken as the observed indices.ResultsThe value of observed indices of nPR group were improved evidently compared with injured group.ConclusionNourishing Piyin Remede can hold back the secondary spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of spinal nerve function.
