- Abstract
The relief effect of Bazhen decoction added with cinnamon and fructus psoraleae on exercise induced fatigue was analyzed by establishing rat exercise-induced fatigue models. Ninety Sprague dawley (SD) male rats were selected and randomly divided into three groups, i.e., control group, model group and test group, according to experimental requirements. Rats in the control group were not trained, but chronic exercise induced fatigue models were set up in the other two groups. Rats in the control group were fed normally, under the condition of no exercise training; rats in the model group were gavaged with normal saline as placebo once within half an hour after daily training; rats in the test group were gavaged with a compound traditional Chinese medicine, i.e., Bazhen decoction added with cinnamon and fructus psoraleae once within half an hour after daily training. Results suggested that, Bazhen decoction added with cinnamon and fructus psoraleae could increase the content of hemoglobin in blood, inhibit the catabolism of heme, keep the metabolism of hemoglobin at a relatively low level, increase the synthesis of hemoglobin, enhance the immune function of red blood cells, improve hematopoietic function, and effectively relieve exercise-induced anemia. Besides, Bazhen decoction added with cinnamon and fructus psoraleae could relieve or eliminate exercise-induced fatigue by promoting the reduction of creatine kinase (CK) content, lowering the permeability of cytomembrane, and inhibiting the release of CK in cells.
