Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Huangqi Sijun Decoction on the levels of thyroxin and cAMP and cGMP in model rats with spleen deficiency syndrome and to explore its therapeutic mechanism.Methods Male SD rats aged three months were randomly divided into 3 groups:normal control group,spleen deficiency model group and Huangqi Sijun Decoction group.The rat models of spleen deficiency syndrome were established by gavage with the decoction of Rhubarb.The serum levels of thyroxin(T4),3,5,3'-triiodothyronine(T3),thyrotropin(TSH)and plasma levels of cAMP,cGMP were determined.Results T3 and T4 were significantly lower but the levels of cAMP and cAMP/cGMP were significantly higher in the spleen deficiency models than those in the normal control group(P
