Objective: To observe the effects of Danggui Beimu Kushen(DGBMKS) decoction on tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in the prostates of chronic bacterial prostatitis(CBP) rats and investigate the mechanism. Method: Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups(10 each):control group
the model group
western medicine group
high
middle and low-dose groups of DGBMKS decoction.The CBP model was established by injecting E.coli into the dorsal lobes of the prostate.High
medium and low doses of DGBMKS decoction were 11.67
5.83
2.917 g·kg-1
and norfloxacin dose was 9.3 g·kg-1.Drugs were given on the 15th day after operation for 4 weeks.The expression of TNF-α and its mRNA in the prostates of rats were measured. Result: Compared to the model group
the expression of TNF-α and its mRNA were significantly decreased in the high
middle and low-dose groups of DGBMKS decoction(P<0.01)
especially most decreased in the high-group. Conclusion: The mechanism of DGBMKS decoction treating CBP may be related to reducing the production of TNF-α in CBP rats.
