|
| [Objective] To explore of protective effects of Gengnian Pingtiao liquid on myocardial cell of rats with Climacteric. [Methods] The 20 SD rats of 11 to 15 months old with the natural climacteric were randomly divided into two groups: Gengnian Pingtiao liquid group (group P), menopause control group (group M). Another 10 SD rats, 4~6 month old were taken for young control group (group Y). After experiment for 45 days, the average optical density(OD) and the rate of positive area of expression of Bcl-2 and Bax were analyzed by image analysis with HPIAS-2000 analysis system. [Results] The expression of Bcl-2 in group P was significantly higher than that in group M (P < 0.01). No significant difference of expression of Bcl-2 was found between the group P and that in group Y (P ＞ 0.05). The expression of Bax in group P was significantly lower than that in group M (P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in the expression of Bax between group P and that in group Y (P ＞ 0.05). [Conclusion] Gengnian Pingtiao liquid can inhibit the myocardial cell apoptosis and plays an important protective role for myocardial cell. |
