Abstract:
Objective To investigate the development of follicles in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)model rats treated with Xinjia Erjia Dihuang Tang and its possible mechanism.Methods Twenty-eight female SD rats with regular estrous cycle were selected and randomly divided into normal control group,model group,Chinese medicine group and Western medicine group,with 7 rats in each group.In addition to the normal control group,the other three groups were continuously given 0.1mg/(kg·d)of letrozole-carboxymethyl cellulose suspension to construct the PCOS rat model.Since the 22nd day,the traditional Chinese medicine group was given 5.268g/(kg·d)of Xinjia Erjia Dihuang Tang,the western medicine group was given 0.286mg/(kg·d)of ethinylestradiol cyproterone tablet,and the normal control group and model group were given 10ml/(kg·d)of distilled water.After 3 weeks,the ovarian coefficients of the rats in all groups were compared,and the morphological changes of the ovarian tissues of the rats in all groups were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The serum hormones of the rats in all groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the ovarian kisspeptin(Kp)and G-protein-coupled receptors(GPR54)protein expression levels were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the normal control group,the follicles in the ovary of the model group showed more cystic dilatation and atresia,and the number of granular cell layers decreased,the ovarian coefficient of the model group was increased;Serum levels of testosterone(T),luteinizing hormone(LH)and Kp were increased in model group;Serum levels of follicle stimulating hormone(FSH)and estradiol(E2)and protein expressions of Kp and GPR54 in ovarian tissue of rats in the model group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).After treatment with Chinese medicine,compared with the model group,the number of follicles in the Chinese medicine group decreased,the layer number of granulosa cells increased,there were nearly mature follicles,and a small amount of corpus luteum existed,serum LH,T and Kp levels were decreased,serum FSH and E2 levels and ovarian Kp and GPR54 protein expressions were significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion The development of follicles in PCOS model rats was improved by the intervention of Xinjia Erjia Dihuang Tang.The therapeutic mechanism may be to affect the release of FSH and LH by regulating Kisspeptin/GPR54 system,so as to affect hormone content,adjust ovarian function,and improve follicle development and ovulation ability.
