Pharmacodymanics of Dispel Stasis Decoction in rats with endometriosis / 中成药

ABSTRACT

AIM: To observe the effects of Dispel Stasis Decoction(Radix et Rhizowa Salviae multiorrhizae,Rhizoma Sparganii,Rhizoma Curcumae,etc) on TNF-? and E_2 in rats with endometriosis(EMS),and to observe its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect. METHODS: Endometriosis rat models were made by autograft of endometrium in abdomen.Four weeks after operation,EMS model rats were randomly divided into 5 groups a model group,3 Dispel Stasis Decoction groups and a danazol group.All the rats were treated for three weeks respectively,and then anaesthetised and killed.The ectopic endometrium's focuses were observed by microscope,the levels of TNF-? and E_2 in the serum of all groups were measured by radioimmunoassay.The method of body twist and ear edema of mouse were used to the analysis the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect of Dispel Stasis Decoction. RESULTS: The survived graft shrinked and the number of the glanduls decreased in rats of Dispel Stasis Decoction group.The levels of TNF-? and E_2 in the serum were significantly lower than that of the model group.Also,Dispel Stasis Decoction could inhibite the ear edema of the mouse induced by dimethylbenzene and the body twist of the mouse caused by acetic acid notablely. CONCLUSION: Dispel Stasis Decoction inhibited growth of the graft and showed a significant therapeutic effects on EMS model rat.It also has notable functions of anti-inflammatory and analgesic.This may be related to its inhibition of TNF-? and E_2 levels.
