Abstract:
Objective:This study was to study effect of keeping ying and weiqi in balance on cardiac muscular collagen Ⅰ,collagen Ⅲ,angiotensinⅡ in spontaneous diabetes rats,and provide new thoughts for prevention and treatment for diabetic cardiomyopathy.Methods:40 spontaneous diabetes rats were divided into four groups at random:spontaneous diabetes control group,diformin group,Guizhi Decoction group and Huanglian Jiedu Decoction group.Except control group,each group was given intragastric administration for 12weeks.Blood glucose,collagenⅠ,collagen Ⅲ,collagenⅠ/collagen Ⅲ,angiotensin Ⅱ were determined.Euzymelinked immunosorbent assay and radio-immuniy method were used.Results:Blood glucose in Huanglian Jiedu Decoction group and diformin group decreased;Compared respectively with diformin group and control group,collagenⅠdecreased obviously and collagen Ⅲ increased signifi cantly in Guizhi Decoction group,and the collagenⅠ/collagen Ⅲ decreased.Compared with diformin group and control group,cardiac muscular homogenate AT-Ⅱ contents decreased in both of Guizhi Decoction group and Huanglian Jiedu Decoction group.Conclusion:Guizhi Decoction can decrease the content of collagen Ⅰ,AT-Ⅱ and collagenⅠ/collagen Ⅲin cardiac muscular,and increase content of collagen Ⅲ,then prevent and treat cardiac muscular collagen reconstruction and myocardial fibrosis.Huanglian Jiedu Decoction can decrease the content of AT-Ⅱ,and decrease collagenⅠ/ collagen Ⅲ,collagenⅠ slightly,and can improve cardiac muscular collagen reconstruction.Keeping ying and weiqi in balance is a new thought for prevention and treatment for diabetic cardiomyopathy.
