Abstract:
In the control rabbits 6 h after smoke inhalation injury, the pulmonary vascular permeability and the circulating platelet aggregation percentage increased distinctly, pathological changes of trachea and lung were marked. In the other 2 groups, ginsenosides (25 mg/kg, iv) or ketoprofen (12 mg/kg, iv) were given 15 min after injury, 6 h after treatment, although both drugs decreased, the aggregation percentage of circulating platelets, only ginsenosides did alleviate the augmented pulmonary vascular permeabil ity and the pathological changes of trachea and lung. In the similar model of smoke inhalation injury in rats, ginsensi-des increased the PGI2 level in arterial blood and reduced the ratio of TXA2/ PGI2 1 h after treatment.
