[Study on the function of decoction for invigorating the kidney and improving blood circulation to thrombosis on rabbit blood stasis model].

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of decoction for invigorating the kidney and improving blood circulation to thrombosis and pathology on rabbit blood stasis model. METHOD: Thirty rabbits were ramdomly divided into normal group, model group, high dose group, low dose group and Xue Shuan Ning group. Tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI), fibrinogen (Fbg) and D-dimer (DD) were investigated after those rabbits had been treated. One rot was solected randomly from each group to observe pathological changes. RESULT: There were significant differences in t-PA, PAI, Fbg and DD between normal group and other groups is very obvious (P < 0.01) . Between groups of high dose low dose Xue Shuan Ning and model, the statistical differeces were significant, as well as between groups of high dose, low dose and Xue Shuan Ning groups (P < 0.05). However, there was no statistical difference between high dose group and high dose group (P > 0.05). The pathological changes in model group were most serious, those in Xue Shuan Ning were less serious. There were slight pathological changes in high dose group and low dose group. CONCLUSION: Models ware made successfully. High dose group and low dose group have stronger effect on thrombosis than Xue Shuan Ning group.

A sulfated chitin, SCM-chitin III, inhibits the clearance of human erythrocytes from the blood circulation in erythrocyte-transfused SCID mice.

Recently, we have developed a SCID mouse model in which circulating red blood cells (RBC) are entirely substituted with RBCs from other animals like bovine (Bo) or human (Hu). The relatively short life time, especially of Hu-RBCs, in the SCID mouse, however, is a major obstacle in this model. The present study was performed to examine whether a low-toxic sulfated chitin, carboxymethyl chitin III (SCM-chitin III), which has heparin-like structures in the molecule (heparinoid), could inhibit the Hu-RBC clearance in RBC-transfused SCID mice. When Hu-RBCs were transfused simultaneously with SCM-chitin III, their life time in the blood circulation was prolonged significantly. Sulfated chitosan (S-chitosan) showed only a weak decelerating activity on the clearance of Hu-RBCs. Carboxymethyl chitin (CM-chitin), which was used as an unsulfated control compound, had no effect on the Hu-RBC clearance. Another sulfated polysaccharide, dextran sulfate, though this showed some adverse effects, such as anti-coagulant and anti-platelet aggregation, also exhibited a potent decelerating activity on Hu-RBC clearance. Clearance deceleration by these sulfated polysaccharides was primarily attributable to the inhibition of RBC uptake by cultured macrophages.
