Qilin Pill Exerts Therapeutic Effect on Resection-Induced Premature Ovarian Insufficiency Rats by Inhibiting the MAPK and PI3K-AKT Signaling Pathways.

Background: The Qilin pill (QLP) is a traditional Chinese compound prescription comprising 15 herbs that has demonstrated significant therapeutic effects on premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) in recent years. However, a pharmacological evaluation of QLP on ovarian function remains to be conducted, and the key mechanism of QLP treatment on POI is unclear.

Methods: Premature ovarian insufficiency rats were established by bilateral partial ovariectomy.

Oral exposure of sulpiride promotes the proliferation of Brown-Norway rat prostates.

The aim of the present study was to establish an animal model of prostatic hyperplasia to explore the mechanisms of this disease. Sulpiride, a specific type 2 dopamine receptor antagonist, causes prostate toxicity by stimulating prolactin (PRL) production. Male Brown-Norway (BN) rats were treated intragastrically (i.
