RESUMO
Objective To isolate and extract effective antiendotoxin materials from Radix Paeoniae Rubra.Methods By the biosensor technology,effective antiendotoxin materials were isolated and extracted with general separation technology for Chinese traditional medicine.By ELISA mensuration for LPS and inhibition of TNF-? release from endotoxin-stimulated cells in vitro,the antiendotoxin activity of Radix Paeoniae Rubra was elucidated.Results The materials extracted had high binding capability to LPS and inhibitory effect on TNF-? release from endotoxin-stimulated cells in vitro.Conclusion Isolated and extracted effective antiendotoxin materials targeting LPS by the biosensor technology were valuable in searching antiendotoxin agents from Radix Paeoniae Rubra.The ability of Radix Paeoniae Rubra to neutralize LPS was assayed and proved very high.
