Abstract:
BACKGROUND: It has been discovered in experimental researches that qiang chang heji acts on prevention and treatment of brain injuries induced by insufficient blood supply and improvement of blood rhelogical property.OBJECTIVE: To study on the effects of qiang chang heji on peripheral red blood cell in rats with insufficient blood supply to brain so as to probe into its mechauism on improving blood rhelogical property.DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Central Laboratory of General Hospital of Chengdu Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Central Laboratory of General Hospital of Chengdu Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from July to September 2003. Totally 50 SD white rats of either sex were employed, weighted varied from 150 g to 170 g.METHODS: The common carotid artery(CA) on the right side was ligatured to induce insufficient blood supply in the brain. The control and qiang chang heji(QCHJ) group were designed for comparison. On the same day of CA ligature, in treatment group, QCHJ of various dosages were applied daily for gastric perfusion; and in the control, physiological saline was applied. Three or seven days later, the parameters of peripheral red blood cell and its rhelogical property were analyzed with equipment.the sham-operation group, mean cell hemoglobin (MCH), haematocrit(HCT) (%) and RBC aggregation index were in the tendency of increase and mean cell hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) (g/L) was increased obviously (375±7 vs 363±13) (P ＜ 0.05) .In the treatment group of 10 g/kg QCHJ, HGB(139.2±12.4 vs 153.6±9.6), MCHC(355±7 vs 375±7) and haematocrit(HCT) (35.4 ±0.9 vs 42.8 ±4.5) were significantly lower the control compared with the sham-operation group, both rigidity index and aggregation index of RBC were in the tendency of further increase. In treatment of QCHJ 10 g/kg, MCHC(354±4 vs 361 ±4), RBC rigidity index (1.02±0.35 vs 4.54±3.04) and aggregation index (2.76±0.66 vs 4.67 ± 1.21 ) were significantly lower than the control( P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: Treatment with QCHJ can prevent changes in peripheral red blood cell in rats with insufficient blood supply in the brain and reduce MCHC and RBC rigidity index and aggregation index so as to improve RBC deformability and rhelogical property.
