Abstract:
Objective To explore the anti-inflammation, pain-relieving and bleeding-stopping effects of Veronicastrum sibiricum and its potential to be a medicinal resource of Radix clematidis.Methods Total of 120 mice were randomly divided into 6 groups, including the Veronicastrum sibiricum water extract (1.5, 1.0, 0.5 g·mL-1) groups, Radix clematidis water extract (1.0 g·mL-1) group, the 0.9% sodium chloride solution group and 2% aspirin solution group.The mouse hot-plate test and writhing test were carried out to evaluate the analgesic effect.The anti-inflammation effect was observed by the xylene-attracted swelling of the mouse's ears.The bleeding time of the breaking mouse's tails was used for studying hemostatic effect.Results The Veronicastrum sibiricum could significantly increase the pain threshold of mice in hot plate.At the same dosage, the Veronicastrum sibiricum reducing the writhing times of mice was similar to Radix clematidis.Auricle swelling inhibition rate was 5.72% higher than Radix clematidis (P<0.05);The mouse tail bleeding time was 7.6% shorter than Radix clematidis (P<0.05).Conclusion The Veronicastrum sibiricum shows similar analgesic effect to Radix clematidis,and more strong hemostatic and anti-inflammation effects than Radix clematidis.
