Objective To study Kangxin Capsule and its kidney-supplementing
spleen-fortifying and blood-nourishing-quickening compositions on nerve cells of vascular dementia (VD) rats with kidney deficiency and blood stasis. Methods Hibateral vertebral arteries were permanently blocked and unilateral genital was extirpated to establish VD rat models with kidney deficiency and blood stasis. Hydergine
distilled water
Kangxin Capsule and its kidney-supplementing
spleen-fortifying and blood-nourishing-quickening compositions were given to rat models respectively. Results Kangxin Capsule could improve spatial exploration ability of rats
relieve pycnosis of nerve cells in hippocampus
increase the content of acetylcholine
up-regulate the expression of tyrosine kinase A
nuclear transcription factor-κB
C-fos and Nerve growth factor receptor and down-regulate the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein significantly as compared with other groups (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion Kangxin Capsule has a protective effect on nerve cells of VD rats with kidney deficiency and blood stasis.
