| Popis: | The drug preparations from dried flower of Carthamus tinctorius L. (CTL) are widely used as an adjuvant medication in cardiovascular diseases in China. In this research, Safflower yellow extract (SYE), a CTL drug in market, was studied through components analysis and two animal experiments with different dosages to assess its pharmacodynamic effects. The whole constituents of SYE were characterized through ultra-fast liquid chromatography–diode array detector–quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry. Cerebral arteriole thrombus was induced in C57BL/6J mouse by laser irradiation in vivo using two-photon laser-scanning microscopy. The time of thrombus formation and vessel diameter were calculated to evaluate the antithrombotic effect. In the model of blood stasis syndrome, rats were injected with adrenaline injection before and after ice-bath to induce hemorheology disorders. The results identified 29 constituents in SYE and hydroxysafflor yellow A was the main component (19.8%). In the mouse model, SYE inhibited thrombus formation in a dose-dependent manner and postponed the occlusion time in brain arteriole at dosages of 26.0 and 52.0 mg/kg. In the rat model of blood stasis syndrome, SYE significantly decreased the whole blood viscosity, suppressed red blood cell aggregation and platelet aggregation in high-dose (p < 0.01). The activated partial thromboplast in time was prolonged at a dosage of 7.0 mg/kg (p < 0.05) as well. In conclusion, SYE administration could inhibit the thrombus formation and beneficially influence the blood rheologyin blood stasis syndromes at relevant low dosages. |
