Abstract:
【Objective】To observe the effects of bamboo leaf extract(BLE)on cerebral ischemia.【Methods】 Effect of BLE(at the concentrations of 10,20 and 40 mg/kg respectively,iv)on rabbit carotid thrombus induced by cotton thread was observed.Meanwhile,the effects of BLE(at the concentrations of 15,30 and 60 mg/kg respectively,iv)on neurological deficit and cerebral infarct size in rats with middle cerebral arterial obstruction(MCAO),as well as the effects of BLE(at the concentrations of 22.5,45,and 90?mg/kg respectively,iv)on mice stroke index,grasping time of decapitated mice and survival time of mice subjecting to bilateral carotid ligation were also observed.【Results】BLE inhibited rabbit carotid thrombosis,improved neurological deficit and reduced cerebral infarct size in MCAO rats(P
