Aims: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been considered to be effective auxiliary strategy for the treatment of hemocytopenia including immune thrombocytopenia. However, the molecular mechanism is still not understood.

Methods: In present study, Qian Five Rhinoceros Gindeng (QFRG) mainly containing buffalo horn, rehmannia root, radix rubia, trogopterus dung and radix salviae miltiorrhizae administrated to thrombocytopenia mice induced by injection of MWReg30.

Neointimal proliferation after vascular injury is a key mechanism of restenosis, a major cause of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty failure and artery bypass occlusion. Emodin, an anthraquinone with multiple physiological activities, has been reported to inhibit proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) that might cause intimal arterial thickening. Thus, in this study, we established a rat model of balloon-injured carotid artery and investigated the therapeutic effect of emodin and its underlying mechanism.

Objective: To study the action mechanism of tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), thus providing experimental evidence for Chinese medicine to effectively prevent restenosis.

Methods: Rats' thoracic aorta VSMCs in vitro cultured (cell line A7r5) were divided into five groups, i.e.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and myocardial fibrosis in acute viral myocarditis (VMC).

Methods: Twenty-eight Balb/c mice were randomized into 3 groups: control group (n=8), VMC group(n=10) and intervention group(n=10). Mice in VMC and intervention groups were injected intraperitoneally(i.
