Abstract
|
[Objective] To study the effects of Qishengyiqi prescription on cardiomyocyte apoptosis, myocardial infarction size and collagen volume fraction in rats with myocardial infarction (MI).[Methods] The rats with myocardial infarction were randomized into 3 groups: the groupA (sham operation with thorax opening without coronary artery deligation, n=10),the groupB (MI only, n=19), the groupC [n=14, treated with Qishenyiqi extractum, 100 mg/(kg·d)×28 after AMI, n=14].After treatment for 4 weeks,the infarct size, myocardial apoptosis index, mean density (MD) of Bcl-2, Bax protein and the collagen volume fraction were monitored.[Results] MD of Bcl-2 protein in the group B and C were more weaker than those of groupA (P<0.05),MD of Bax protein, the collagen volume fraction in the group B and C were stronger than those of group A.MD of Bcl-2 protein in the group C was stronger than those of the group B (P<0.05), the infarct size, MAI, MD of Bax protein and the collagen volume fraction were minor than those of the group B (P<0.05).[Conclusion] Qishenyiqi can relieve the left ventricular remodeling, improve the cardiac function and protect the heart in rats with myocardia infarction by inhibiting myocardium apoptosis and myocardial fibrosis.Key words |
