Article Synopsis
- Angong Niuhuang Wan (AGNHW) is a traditional Chinese medicine from the Qing dynasty, aimed at treating brain edema caused by infections and ischemia, but its effects on LPS-induced vascular brain edema were previously unclear.
- This study tested AGNHW's impact on LPS-induced cerebrovascular edema in mice through various measures, including survival rate, cerebral water content, and protein expression.
- Results showed that AGNHW improved survival, reduced cerebral edema, and enhanced certain protein expressions while influencing multiple phosphorylated proteins and revealing 11 AGNHW metabolites in the blood.
Article Synopsis
- The prevalence of colitis is increasing, and traditional treatments like Xihuang pill (XHP), a historical Chinese medicine, have shown promise due to their anti-inflammatory properties, but their specific effects and mechanisms are not fully understood.
- This study aimed to analyze the impact of XHP on colitis using a mouse model, assessing various health markers such as colon length, mucus barrier permeability, and levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines after administering different doses of XHP.
- Results suggested that XHP improved weight loss and reduced colon shortening in colitis mice, indicating its potential therapeutic effects and prompting further investigation into its mechanisms of action.
Effect of on the Prevention of Postoperative Peritoneal Adhesions in Abrasion-Induced Rat Model.
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med
June 2019
Postoperative peritoneal adhesions (PPAs) constitute a common complication of abdominal surgery with a high incidence. (BS) is an important hemostatic drug used in China for nearly 2000 years. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of on postoperative intestinal adhesion in rats.
