Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of different doses of compound Xuelian capsule on bone cancer pain (BCP) in rats.Methods Fifty pathogen-free adult female Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 200-220 g,aged 7-8 weeks,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group BCP,and compound Xuelian capsule 50,100 and 200 mg · kg-1 · d-1 groups (group CX50,group CX100 and group CX200).BCP was produced by injecting Walker256 mammary gland carcinoma cells into the intramedullary space of the right femur bone.At 11-21 days after inoculation of the tumor ceils,normal saline containing compound Xuelian capsule 50,100 and 200 mg · kg 1 · d 1 was injected through a tube into stomach once a day in CX50,CX100 and CX200 groups,respectively.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) and limb use score were measured at 1 day before inoculation of the tumor cells (baseline) and 4,7,11,14,17,19,and 21 days after inoculation of the tumor cells.Results Compared with group S,the MWT at 4-21 days after inoculation of the tumor cells was significantly decreased,and limb use score was significantly decreased at 11-21 days after inoculation of the tumor cells in BCP,CX50,CX100 and CX200 groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group BCP,the MWT was significantly increased at 19-21 days after inoculation in group CX50,at 17-21 days after inoculation in group CX100 and at 14-21 days after inoculation in group CX200,and limb use score was significantly increased at 14-21 days after inoculation in group CX100 and at 17-21 days after inoculation in group CX200 (P＜0.05).Conclusion Compound Xuelian capsule 50,100 and 200 mg· kg 1 · d 1 (for 11 consecutive days) can reduce BCP in a dose-dependent manner in rats.
