Abstract
    [Objective] To study on the influence of Chinese drug Qipiyin on the rat model with psoriasis-like lesion and the contents of beta-endorphine in different tissues. [Methods] The rat model with psoriasis-like lesion were prepared, and they were treated with Chinese drug once each day. After treatment of 10 days, changes of the skin histopathology were observed, and its Baker,and scores were determined and the contents of beta-endorphine in different tissues(plasma, skin, hypothalamus) were detected with radioimmunoassay. [Results] After treatment the skin Baker,s scores were decreased in the Chinese drug group as compared with those in the model group(P<0.01). Compared as normal group, the β-EP level in plasma of the rat model with psoriasis-like lesion decreased, but its level in skin increased(P<0.05)and decreased in hypothalamus(P<0.01). After Chinese drug, there were no change in β-EP of plasma, but in skin the β-EP level were lower(P<0.01) and higher in hypothalamus(P<0.01). [Conclusion] The rat model with psoriasis-like lesion can be improved by Chinese drug. The mechanism is possibly related with the down-regulation of β-EP in skin and up-regulation of β-EP in hypothalamus.
