Abstract:
Objective To establish the animal model of damp-heat syndrome(DHS) and explore the expression of aquaporin(AQP) 3,4 gene in gastric mucosa.Methods Thirty SD rats were randomized into 3 groups and observed for 20 days.Group A(normal group,NG) was fed with routine method.Group B(Pi deficiency syndrome group,PDS) was fed alternatively with routine method and aqua of cassia angustifolia Vahl.Group C(DHS) was fed with fat,honey liquid and treated with damp-heat environment.The expression of AQP 3,4 gene in the 3 groups were determined by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(FQ-PCR).Results The symptoms and signs in Group C were simiar to the clinical DHS.Expression of AQP3 gene in DHS was statistically significant higher than that in PDS and NG(P
