Reinforcing qi and promoting blood circulation to prevent hepatic fibrosis due to bovine serum albumin immunologic injury]

44 Wistar female rats were divided randomly into 4 groups--normal control(I), case control (II), reinforcing Qi and promoting blood circulation(III) and nourishing Yin and promoting blood circulation(IV). After 4 times of bovine serum albumin (BSA) shock injection, the group III and the group IV were medicated through gastric intubation for 40 days respectively with 300% mixture of reinforcing Qi and promoting blood circulation and 300% mixture of nourishing Yin and promoting blood circulation. The results suggest the mixture of reinforcing Qi and promoting blood circulation has the function of alleviating pathological changes of liver, reducing the content of liver collagen, improving erythrocytic function of clearing away immune complexes and regulating humoral immune response.
