Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of Compound Malt Pill on gene expressions of androgen receptor (AR) and insulin receptor (INSR) in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) rats; To discuss its relevant mechanism of action.Methods Letrozole was used to induce and establish rat models. Rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, Diane-35 group, low-, medium- and high-dose Compound Malt Pill groups. The normal group and model group received normal saline by gavage; the Diane-35 group was given Diane-35 by gavage; Compound Malt Pill groups were respectively given different concentrations by gavage for 21 d. The levels of serum testosterone (T) and insulin were measured by ELISA, and the gene expressions of AR and INSR were measured by RT-PCR. Results Compared with normal group, the serum T, insulin and the gene expressions of AR and INSR in model group increased significantly (P<0.05,P<0.01); compared with model group, the serum T, insulin and the gene expressions of AR and INSR in low-, medium- and high-dose Compound Malt Pill groups decreased significantly (P<0.05, P<0.01).Conclusion Compound Malt Pill can adjust endocrine-metabolic disorder in PCOS rats.
