Study on the Mechanism of Kangnaoling Capsule Resisting Free Radical Injury of Vascular Dementia Rat / 中国中医药信息杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the protection of Kangnaoling capsule to free radical injury and influence on the expression of caspase-3 and Bcl-2 in neuron of VD rat. Methods VD rat model was duplicated. Using spectrophotometry to detect contents of SOD, MDA and NO, spectro-fluorimeter to detect the expression of caspase-3, spectrophotometric method to detect the expression of Bcl-2 after traditional Chinese medicine interference. Results Kangnaoling capsule can markedly reduce the contents of MDA, raise contents of SOD and NO, degrade the expression of caspase-3, enhance the expression of Bcl-2. Conclusions Kangnaoling capsule can markedly protect VD rat from free radical injury, which probably correlated with increasing expression of Bcl-2, decreasing expression of caspase-3.
