Effect of Naoluoxintong formula and its split prescriptions on cerebral vascular regeneration in rats with the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.

Objective: To observe regulatory effect of Naoluoxintong formula (, NLXT) and its split prescriptions on vascular regeneration of rats suffering from cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (IR) syndrome of Qi deficiency with blood stasis (QDBS).

Methods: NLXT is the representative prescription of Yiqi Huoxue Tongluo decoction, and NLXT is divided into Yiqi herbs and Huoxue Tongluo herbs according to their efficacies. One hundred and eight specific-pathogen-free, clean-grade, Sprague-Dawley male rats were selected to prepare the classical rat model with QDBS due to middle artery ischemia-reperfusion using the multi-factor compound simulation approach.
