Abstract

The present study examined inhibitory effects of 20 efficient experience prescriptions on platelet aggregation induced by collagen in human whole blood using the impedance method of aggregometry. Among them, a hot water extract of KIOM 2003-080 was selected to be the most effective candidate. In an in vivo study using a mouse acute thrombosis model, the anti-thrombotic effects of the KIOM2003-080 crude extract were also observed. In addition, we accessed bio-marker of platelet activation using thromboxane B2 by ELISA assay. A significantly decrease in thromboxane B2 production was seen in the presence of KIOM2003-080. Consequently, the results from this experiment provide pharmacological evidence for the traditional use of KIOM2003-080 prescription, suggesting that its hot water extracts could be used to prevent platelet aggregation and thrombosis disease.
