Methods Sixty experimental rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group, valsartan group, high aconite and low peony group, aconite and peony equivalent group, low aconite and high peony group. All rats except the blank group were made glomerulonephritis model by tail vein injection of monoclonal antibody 1-22-3. Rats were gived continuous gavage administration (blank group and model group were lavaged with NS) after modeling, and killed 2 weeks later. The morphological change of kidney tissues and serum hs-CRP, TNF-α, IL-6 levels were observed. Results The valsartan group, aconite and peony equivalent group, low aconite and high peony group inhibited the rats mesangial cell proliferation and extracellular matrix expansion significantly, so as the level of hs-CRP, TNF-αand IL-6. The effect of aconite and peony equivalent group was better than low aconite and high peony group, but inferior to valsartan group, while high aconite and low peony group accelerated the progress of the disease. Conclusion The different compatibility of aconite and peony in Zhenwu Decoction has resistance and proinflammatory effect on renal inflammation.
