Abstract:
Objective This study is designed to improve topical medication in the Department of Orthopedics in Kunming Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine by applying cataplasm made from the active ingredient (polyphyllin) of Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis (Franch.) Hand.-Mazz ("Dian Chonglou"in Chinese) and to study the mechanism of anti-inflammation. Methods SD male rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group and treatment group. The rats in two groups were all injected 50ul 5% sodium urate suspension into tibiotarsal joint cavity to duplicate the model of acute gouty arthritis.The rats in the control group were applied with cataplasm without polyphyllin, whereas those in the treatment group applied with cataplasm of polyphyllin. After 4,24,48,72 hours,the ankle diameter and circumference were measured. ELISA was used to test the interleukin-1β (IL-1β) andtumor necrosis factor (TNF) in peripheral blood. Western blotting was applied to detect the changes in TLR4 expression of monocyte.Results Compared with the control group, the added value of the diameter and circumference of ankle decreased significantly in the treatment group 4, 24,48 and 72 h after the treatment.IL-1β in the treatment group was lowered at 4,24 and 72 h. TLR4in the treatment group decreased at 48 h. Conclusion Cataplasm with polyphyllin can alleviate the acute inflammatory reaction in gouty joint of rat by reducing the expression of IL-1βand TLR4.
