Abstract:
Objective:To study the pharmacological effects of Leshibao chewable tablets for juvenile rats with anorexia. Methods:The rats were divided into 6 groups with 10 ones in each and fed with special forage for 4 weeks to establish the anorexia model of ju-venile rats. After the model establishment, from the 8th day, the treatment groups received Leshibao chewable tablets respectively at the dose of 0. 60, 0. 30 and 0. 15 g·kg-1 ·d-1 for three weeks. The general situation was observed, and the appetite and body weight were recorded during the treatment. At the end of experiment, the gastric juice amount, free gastric acidity, total gastric acidity and pepsin activity were determined, TP, ALB, TCHO, MTL and GAS were determined by kit methods. Additionally, the mice were given Leshibao chewable tablets at different doses (0. 80, 0. 40, 0. 20 g·kg-1 ·d-1 ) for 7 days, the effects of Leshibao chewable tablets on gastric emptying and intestinal propulsive function were observed. Results: Leshibao chewable tablets could significantly increase the body weight, appetite (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), gastric juice amount, free gastric acidity , total gastric acidity and pepsin secretion (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), significantly reduce TP, ALB and TCHO in serum (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), significantly increase MTL and GAS contents (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), and significantly promote gastric emptying and intestinal propulsion in mice (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:Leshibao chewable tablets can significantly increase body weight and appetite, and improve digestive function re-markably, which exhibit excellent therapeutic effect in the anorexia model of juvenile rats.
