Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the mechanism of Qing-Kai-Ling(QKL) Injecta suppressing endotoxin(ET)-induced fever in rabbits.METHODS: ①The ET-induced fever model was established in rabbits. QKL injecta was administered intravenously, and the febrile response of rabbits was observed. The cAMP content in the hypothalamus (HP) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) content in the ventral septal area (VSA) were determined by radioimmunoassay.RESULTS: ①The maximal increment in body temperature (△T)[(1 68?0 46)℃],6 h thermal response index (TRI 6)(29 59?10 39), cAMP content in the HP[(2 90?0 40) nmol/g] and AVP content in the VSA[(47 32?3 77) ng/g] in the ET group were significantly higher than those in the normal saline (NS) group[(0 08?0 11)℃,-0.15?4 29,(1 05?0 37) nmol/g,(11 78?7 87) ng/g, respectively] and the QKL+ET group[(0 48?0 18)℃, (13.71?3.29), (1 37?0 23) nmol/g,(25 24?2 61) ng/g, respectively].②The positive correlation was observed between the cAMP content in the HP and the fluctuation of body temperature ( r=0.904,P
