Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Shenqi Fuzheng injection on the expression of MMP-3 and TIMP-1 in congestive heart failure model rats.METHODS: The experimental rats were randomly divided into 6 groups,i.e.normal group,model group,captopril(10 mg?kg-1)group,Shenqi Fuzheng injection low dosage(2 mL)group,Shenqi Fuzheng injection medium dosage(4 mL)group,and Shenqi Fuzheng injection high dosage(6 mL)group.All except the normal group were intraperitoneally injected with adriamycin on the first experimental day.After drug intervention for 8 weeks,the rats were anesthetized and sacrificed,with heart specimen sampled rapidly for pathological examination and semi-quantitative analysis of myocardial MMP-3 and TIMP-1 mRNA by RT-PCR method.RESULTS:In the model group compared with the normal group,MMP-3 mRNA were significantly increased(P
