摘要
The effect of Xue Guen Tong (XGT) granule in preveriting restenosis of atherosclerotic iliacartery after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in rabbits was studied. Forty-two purebred NewZealand rabbits with their endothelium of iliac arteries denuded and fed with high cholesterol diet for sixweeks to form the model of atheresclerotic stenosis. After PTA, the high cholesterol diet was stopped imme-diately and they were divided into 3 groups randomly. the XGT group, the lovastatin group and the controlgroup. Arterial angiogreph and pathological observation were carried out 4 weeks after PTA. The resultesbewed that ( 1 ) The luminal diameter of artery was 1 . 82 0. 46mm in the XGT group, 0 . 96 0. 71mm in thelovastetin grcxjp and 0. 71 0 . 53mm in the control group. The former one was larger than the latter two sig-nificantly ( P< 0. 01 ) . (2) Thickness of intima of artery was 0 . 27 0 . 40mm in the XGT group, it was thinnerthan those in the other two groups (O. 43 0. 04mm in the lovastatin group arid 0. 48 0. 10mm in the controlgroup) . (3) In XGT group, the smooth muscle cells ( SMCs) contained fewer organelles. more muscular fibersand were well differentiated than in the other two groups. The conclusion was XGT has the preventive effecton past-PTA arterial restenosis in rabbits.
