RESUMO

Qingxuan Jiangya Decoction (QXJYD), prescribed by academician Ke-ji Chen, has long been used as a Traditional Chinese Medicine formula in blood pressure control and has achieved good clinical outcomes in hypertensive patients. Qingda granules (QDGs), which is a formula simplified from QXJYD, might serve as a novel anti-hypertensive pharmaceutical. However, the functional mechanism of QDGs remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of QDGs against the elevation of blood pressure, systemic inflammation and brain injury in Ang II-mediated hypertensive mice. Ang II-mediated hypertensive mice were treated with 28.63mg QDG of per mouse every day. The blood pressure of all mice was measured on days 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 14 and 28 by using the tail-cuff plethysmograph method. Following 28 days of treatment, the mice were sacrificed and their whole blood and brain tissues were used for analysis. The results showed that QDGs significantly decreased elevated systolic and diastolic blood pressure in Ang II-mediated hypertensive mice while body weight did not change, which demonstrated anti-hypertensive activities of QDGs without obvious toxicity. QDGs significantly attenuated the level of serum cytokines (IL-6, TNF-a) and chemokines (MCP-1, MIP-1a, RANTES) in the Ang II-mediated hypertensive mice. Moreover, pathological staining showed that QDGs significantly ameliorated cerebral histopathology changes, reduced the loss of neurons and activations of astrocytes. Additionally, QDGs inhibited neuronal apoptosis by down-regulation of Bax expression and up-regulation of Bcl-2 expression. These results suggested that QDGs exhibited excellent anti-hypertensive properties by preventing systemic inflammation and providing neuroprotective effects against Ang II-mediated hypertension.
