Objective: To study the effects and mechanism of Yiqi Yangxue Wenyang formula on interstitial cells of cajal in the rat colon of constipation caused by laxatives. Method: The rat constipation model was caused by laxatives on. First day rats were ig given rhubarb 200 mg· kg-1· d-1
second day given 400 mg·kg-1· d-1 for 3 months
until half rats appeared diarrhea. The modelling rats were treated with Yiqi Yangxue Wenyang formula for two weeks
interstitial cells of cajal in colon was observed by RT-PCR. Result: The interstitial cells of cajal in rat colon in the Yiqi Yangxue Wenyang formula high dose group was 0.365 08±0.047
the medium group was 0.370 97±0.040
that was higher than that in the model group is 0.298 55±0.046(P<0.05). Conclusion: The Yiqi Yangxue Wenyang formula can treat constipation by adjust interstitial cells of cajal in colon.
