Shipi Shugan Decoction Protected against Sequela of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease via Inhibiting SIRT1/NLRP3 Signaling Pathway in Pelvic Inflammatory Disease Rats.

ABSTRACT: Sequela of pelvic inflammatory disease (SPID) is a common and frequently occurring disease clinically. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) provided unique advantages in the treatment of SPID. In this study, we aimed to investigate the protective mechanism of Shipi Shugan Decoction (SSD), a Chinese herbal formula, on SPID using a SPID rat model. Mixed bacterial infection and mechanical injury were used for modeling. The chemical composition of SSD was analyzed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). The inflammatory factors were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blot techniques. We found that SSD dose-dependently inhibited the content of IL-18, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 in serum samples of SPID rats. The results from
