Abstract

Astragaloside is a simple substance of saponin and the active constituent of astragali. It was reported that the astragaloside exerted therapeutical eff ect on viral myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of astragaloside on TL1A expression in viral myocarditis. A total of 100 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into 6 groups: the normal control group (group A, n=10), the high-dose control group (group B, n=10), the myocarditis control group (group C, n=20), the low-dose group (group D, n=20), the middle-dose group (group E, n=20) and the high-dose group (group F, n=20). Mice in group A and group B were injected intraperitoneally with 0.1 mL EMEM solution, while mice in group C, D, E and F were treated with 0.1 mL of 1×102 TCID50 CVB3 (diluted in EMEM). Then, mice in group A and group B were treated with carboxymethycellulose solution and 9% astragaloside for 1 week, respectively. At the same time, mice in group C, D, E and F were treated with sodium carboxymethycellulose solution, 1% [0.07 g/(kg.d)], 3% [0.2 g/(kg.d)] and 9%[0.6 g/(kg.d)] astragaloside for 1 week, respectively. After 14 days, the mice were sacrificed and their hearts were collected. The expression levels o...Continue Reading
