- Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Fuxin decoction in rats with heart failure induced by doxorubicin injections. METHODS: We employed a doxorubicin-induced heart failure model to investigate the effect of Fuxin decoction. Rats were orally administered with Fuxin decoction from 10 to 40 mg/kg. Organization structure changes were assessed by histology, circulating levels of oxidative stress-related biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines were detected via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: Administration of Fuxin decoction improved the growth retardation in doxorubicin hydrochloride injection rats. Cardiac involvement was alleviated by Fuxin decoction, as well as changes of congestion systemic circulation in this rat models. Furthermore, Fuxin decoction regulates immune responses responses and suppresses oxidation reaction in doxorubicin hydrochloride-induced rats. CONCLUSION: Fuxin decoction might be an interesting candidate for congestive heart failure.
