Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement mechanism of Modified sanhuang ointment on anal ulcers and swelling model rats. METHODS The anal ulcer model of the rat was induced by using glacial acetic acid; the effects of Modified sanhuang ointment low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (185, 370, 740 mg/kg), western medicine positive control group (Compound carraghenates cream, 1 g/kg) and TCM positive control group (Mayinglong shexiang zhichuang ointments, 1 g/kg) on body weight, area of anal ulcer, grade of anal ulcer were investigated. The other groups of rats were used to induce rectal swelling models with croton oil; the effects of Modified sanhuang ointment low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (185, 370, 740 mg/kg), western medicine positive control group (Compound carraghenates cream, 1 g/kg) and TCM positive control group (Mayinglong shexiang zhichuang ointments, 1 g/kg) on the rate of rectal and anal swelling, serum contents of inflammatory factors [interleukin 2 (IL-2), IL-4, tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α)], pathological morphology of rectal tissue, the expression of transient receptor potential channel V1 (TRPV1) and substance P in rectal tissue and rectal vascular permeability were investigated. RESULTS In Modified sanhuang ointment, the increase in body weight was enhanced, and the area of anal ulcers, as well as the grade of anal ulcers in rats with anal ulcer models, were reduced to varying degrees; rectal tissue damage in rectal swelling model rats was improved; the rate of rectal and anal swelling, the serum contents of inflammatory factors, the expressions of TRPV1 and substance P in rectal tissue, and rectal vascular permeability were all decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The effect of Modified sanhuang ointment was better than that of western medicine positive control and TCM positive control.Modified sanhuang ointment can improve anal ulcers and swelling in rats by reducing the release of inflammatory factors, inhibiting the expression of TRPV1 and substance P.
