Abstract:
AIM: To study the effect of Baixiangdan Capsule (Radix paeoniae alba and Rhizoma cyperi) on expression and behavior and sex hormone of rhesus monkey with premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and liver-qi invasion. METHODS: Twenty-four young rhesus monkeys in high rank and in the ovalatory menstrual cycle were isolated and squeezed 7 h a day for 5 d by specifically designed isolating-cage. At the same time Baixiangdan Capsule orally administed was compared with the control group of Jingqianping Granule. The expression and behavior changes of rhesus monkeys were observed and evaluated by The Measure Table of Emotion Evaluation of Female Experiment Macaque. And the levels of prolactin (PRL),estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P) in serum were investigated by radioimmunoassay. RESULTS: The scores of anxiety factors of the model monkeys were higher than the normal and the serum E2,and P levels decreased and PRL level increased significantly in the control group. As compared with the model group,Baixiangdan Capsule reduced the enhancing anxiety factor scores and also could increase the lower E2 and P levels in serum obviously and decrease PRL level. CONCLUSION: The above findings suggest that Baixiangdan Capsule has good regulative effects and makes it to the normal state on the abnormal expression and behavior and serum sex hormones of rhesus monkey with PMS and liver-qi invasion.
