Abstract:
【Objective】To observe the effect of Ma Xing Shi Gan Decoction(MXSGD)on metabolism of oxygen free radicals in mice with bronchial asthma.【Methods】Forty BALB/c mice were randomized into 4 groups:normal group,model group,low-dose MXSGD group(20?g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1))and high-dose MXSGD group (80?g?kg~(-1)?d~(-1)).Except the normal group,the mice in other 3 groups received sensitization by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin(OVA)and challenge by inhalation of OVA to induce bronchial asthma.Meanwhile,MXSGD groups were given the corresponding doses according to the experimental design by gastric gavage,and normal group and model group received the same volume of normal saline for 27 days.Twelve-four hours after last challenge,blood sample was taken and homogenate of lung tissue was prepared for the detection of superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA)and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)contents in the plasma and the lung tissue.【Results】High-and low-dose MXSGD increased SOD and GSH-Px contents and decrease MDA content in the lung tissue and plasma(P
