In Cantharidin-poisoned rats, nicotinamide-adenine dinucletide dehydrogenase (NADHD) andcytochrome oxidase (CCO) activities of myocardi-um, stomach and intestine were observed in exper-iment histochemically. The result showed thatNADHD and CCO reaction granules were de-creased, stained weakly, and distributed sparselyin myocardium, stomach and intestine of intoxicat-ed rats as compared with the control group. Thus,from the experimental result it was considered thatcantharidin may inhibit the activities of NADHDand CCO in varving degrees.

Based on the histochemical observation ofnicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase(NADHD) and eytochrome oxidase (CCO) activi-ties of myocardium in cantharidine poisoned rats,furthermore, we observed the changes of these en-zymes of the myocardium cytochemically. The re-sult showed that, compared with control group, NADHD and CCO activities were inhibited afteradministration of cantharidin 1 or 2 h, and the in-hibition was found to be more obvious with poison-ing times prolonged, after 24 h, the cristae of mi-tochondria can not be distinguished, and the reac-tion products diffued into stroma to become a ho-mogeneous mass and lost their normal localization.It is indicated that cantharidin might destroy thestructure of mitochondria and interfere the activi-ties of NADHD and CCO of which both are locatedon mitochondria.

Objective:To observe effects of wrist-ankle acupuncture (WAA) onβ-endorphin (EP), nitric oxide (NO) in uterus tissue and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), substance P (SP) in serum of rats with primary dysmenorrhea. Methods:A total of 45 non-pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group and a WAA group, 15 rats in each group. Rats in the model group and the WAA group received continuous abdominal subcutaneous injection of Diethylstilbestrol to establish dysmenorrhea rat models. On the first day after modeling, rats in the WAA group began to receive acupuncture on Point Lower 1 and Point Lower 2, once a day for 10 d. The control group and the model group didn’t receive any treatment. Writhing latencies and frequencies were recorded.β-EP and NO in uterus tissue homogenates and PGF2α, SP in serum were detected. Results:In the model group,β-EP and NO levels were the lowest among the groups, the serum PGF2α level was the highest, and serum SP level was the lowest. These measurements showed significantly difference between the model group and the control group (P<0.05). PGF2α in the WAA group was lower than that in the model group;β-EP, NO and SP levels were higher than those in the model group, with inter-group statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion: WAA may achieve analgesic effect through decreasing PGF2α, increasingβ-EP, NO and SP to relieve uterine cramps, increase blood flow and promote functional improvement.
