Abstract:
The cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome is a common clinical traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） syndrome. The animal model of cold ongeal and blood stasis syndrome is the basis for exploring the essence of TCM cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome，and the premise of follow-up TCM clinical research.This paper summarized the preparation method， theoretical support，and evaluation method of animal models of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome in recent years and analysed the strengthens and weaknesses of different models. At present，the common animal models of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome mainly include etiological model，etiological and pathological composite model and disease-syndrome combination model. The etiological model was mainly prepared by cold exposure，which could be divided into whole-body freezing， ice bath and local frostbite. The etiological and pathological composite model was mainly prepared by cold stimulation combined with epinephrine injection. The common disease-syndrome combination models included the coronary heart disease model of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome，primary dysmenorrhea model of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome，endometriosis model of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome， and arteriosclerosis obliterans model of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome. The three models have both advantages and disadvantages. Specifically， the disease-syndrome combination model had the highest consistency with clinical practice and was more reliable and practical. However， the disease types of this model were specific，and the combination method of disease and syndrome was controversial. The evaluation indicators of the animal models of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome focused on the characterization of the syndrome and the physico-chemical indicators related to blood flow，such as blood rheology，coagulation function and microcirculation. In addition， some scholars explored the evaluation indicators from the aspects of vasomotor function，endocrine and energy metabolism. The objectivity and specificity of the current model evaluation methods needed to be further improved. The research of animal model of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome should be based on clinical practice and oriented by clinical demand. Only by establishing animal models that are highly consistent with the characteristics of clinical disease and syndrome can we better reveal the essence of cold congeal and blood stasis syndrome and promote the modernization of TCM.
