Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of Sijunzi Decoction(SD) and Huangqi Sijunzi Decoction(HSD) on mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase,cytochrome oxidase activity of liver in rats with spleen asthenia,thus to reveal the pathogenesis mechanism of spleen asthenia from energy metabolism,and to clarify the therapeutic mechanism of spleen-invigorating and Qi-tonifying herbs.Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:normal control group,spleen-asthenia model group,SD(10.5 g/kg) group and HSD(18 g/kg) group,10 rats in each group.Except that the normal control group,the rats in the other groups were fed with half-full diet once every other day and with gastic gavage of Xiaochengqi Decoction 60 g/kg every day to establish animal model of spleen asthenia.After 15 days,the model rats were administered the corresponding drugs according to the experimental design for 4 continuous weeks.The changes of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase,cytochrome oxidase activity of liver were measured,and the general status of the rats were observed.Results Compared with the normal control group,the level of mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase activity in liver of spleen asthenia group were decreased obviously(P
