Effect of Gwaluzisiltang and Gwaluzisiltanggami on the Intravascular coagulation induced by Endotoxin in Rats

This study was performed to investigate the effects of Gwaluzisiltang and Gwaluzisiltanggami on the intravascular coagulation. The experimental group divided two groups : one group was the intravascular coagulation induced by endotoxin in rats, another group was the formation of paw edema by contusion in rats, and then these rats were treated with liquid extract of Gwaluzisiltang(Sample I) and Gwaluzisiltanggami(Sample II), which were administered orally. Then the numbers of platelets, concentration of fibrinogen, Prothrombin time and FDP(fibrin-fibrinogen degradation Products)were measured. The results were as follows : 1. The effects of the Intravascular coagulation 1) Platelet was increased significantly in the sample I compared with control group. 2) Fibrinogen was increased significantly in the sample I compared with control group. 3) Prothrombin time was shortened significantly in the sample I and more shortened in the sample II compared with control group. 4) FDP was decreased significantly in the sample I and more decreased in the samplem II compared with control group. 2. The effect of the formation of paw edema by contusion in rats. 1) The rate of paw edem was decreased significantly after five hours in the sample I 2) Platelet was increased significantly in the sample I compared with control group. 3) Fibrinogen was decreased in the sample I and sample II compared with control group, but it is not significant 4) Prothrombin time was shortened significantly in the sample II compared with control group. According to the above results, it is considered that the Gwaluzisiltang and Gwaluzisiltanggami seem to be applicable disease related to thrombosis, because they obtained significant effects on the experimental method which are based on the oriental medical theory-the principle of phlegm and blood stasis have the same source and disease (痰瘀同源, 痰瘀同病).
