Abstract:
[Objective] To explore the effects of angongniuhuang pill on the synthesis of apolipoprotein E in brains of rats after traumatic brain injury.[Methods] Using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),the apolipoprotein E’s mRNA of contused brain tissue and the concentration of apolipoprotein E in CSF at different phases after traumatic brain injury were detected of rats fed with angongniuhuang pills.[Results]High expression of apolipoprotein E mRNA and high concentration of apolipoprotein E were found in rats fed with angongniuhuang pills compared with controls.[Conclusion]Angongniuhuang pills may increase the expression of apolipoprotein E mRNA in brains after traumatic brain injury,thus promote the synthesizing and secreting of apolipoprotein E.
