Therapeutic effects of Sheng Xue Fang in a cyclophosphamide-induced anaemia mouse model.

ABSTRACT:

Context

Sheng Xue Fang (SXF) has been used to treat anaemia for decades with good efficacy.

Objective

To study the effect and possible mechanism of SXF to restore haematopoietic function.

Materials and methods

Balb/c mice (10 per/group, half male, half female) were treated with SXF (three dose groups, 8.5, 17, and 22.1 g/kg) by gavage for 14 days, and cyclophosphamide (80 mg/kg) was injected on days 10-12. Only injection of cyclophosphamide (negative control) or physiological saline (blank control) were included as controls. The spleen and femur were processed for histopathology. Active components and the target of SXF were screened. The target was used for gene enrichment and protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis.
