Effect of Astragaloside IV on Cardiac Function of Rats with Complex Harmful Fluid Retention
Objective: To investigate the effect of astragaloside Ⅳ on improving the cardiac function of the rats with complex harmful fluid retention. Method: Subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (ISO) in the scapularis region and tracheal intubation were used to establish the rat models of harmful fluid retention in upper warmer. After successful modeling
the rats were randomly divided into model group
astragalaside Ⅳ low
middle and high-dose groups
positive control group (Qili Qiangxin capsules) and normal group
n=10 in each group. The rats in the astragalaside Ⅳ groups were treated with astragalaside Ⅳ at doses of 20
40
80 mg·kg-1·d-1 as low
middle and high dose groups respectively; the rats in model group and positive control group were treated with 0.5% CMC-Na solution and Qiliqiangxin capsule (1 g·kg-1·d-1) with equal volume. After treatment for 2 weeks
the degree of myocardial hypertrophy was observed by the body weight (BW)
heart weight index (HWI) and left ventricular weight index (LVWI); hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining and collagen volume fraction (CVF) were used to observe the changes of cardiac pathology; left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) were measured by echocardiography; and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the level of plasma creatine kinase (CK). Result: As compared with the normal group
the level of BW was significantly lower (P<0.01); HWI and LVWI were significantly higher (P<0.01)
with more obvious myocardial hypertrophy; LVEF and LVFS were significantly reduced (P<0.01); and myocardial CVF and plasma CK was significantly increased (P<0.05
P<0.01) in model group
with more obvious myocardial pathological injury. After treatment
the level of BW was significantly higher ( P<0.05) and the HWI
LVWI were decreased in the astragalaside Ⅳ 40
80 mg·kg-1·d-1 dose groups as compared with the model group (P<0.05
P<0.01). This can effectively alleviate myocardial hypertrophy. Moreover
the high-dose and middle-dose astragalaside Ⅳ groups significantly increased LVEF and LVFS to improve cardiac function
reduced CK
CVF(P<0.05)
and relieved myocardial pathological damages. Conclusion: Astragalaside Ⅳ can protect the heart by inhibiting the myocardial fibrosis
reducing left ventricular thickness and improving hemodynamics in the rat models of harmful fluid retention in upper warmer.
