Aim:To investigate modulation effect of Guizhi Tang on complex model of hypertension with hyperpyrexia and its influence on vasoactive intestinal peptide(VIP). Methods:To reproduce complex pathological model of hypertension with hyperpyrexia by subcutaneous injection of fresh yeast in spontaneous hypertension rat
and to measure VIP contents of plasma
cardiac muscle and hypothalamus tissues using radioimmunoassay. Rusults:Guizhi Tang
taken orally 10g/kg/day for three weeks
could decrease blood pressure of spontaneous hypertension rats and had no effect on heart rate. It also obviously decreased VIP content of cardiac muscle
made increase tendency on VIP content of hypothalamus
and had no influence on VIP content of plasma. Conclusion:Guizhi Tang can decrease blood pressure and has antipyretic effect on complex pathological model of hypertension with hyperpyrexia
and modulate VIP levels of cardiac muscle and hypothalamus tissues.
