mucositis.Compared with the model group,Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang gargle high,medium and low dose groups could significantly reduce the symptom score of cheek pouch mucositis caused by modeling(P<0.05 or P<0.01),significantly reduce the levels of TNF-α,IL-1and IL-6 in serum of golden hamsters(P<0.01),significantly increase the level of IFN-γin serum of golden hamsters(P<0.05 or P<0.01),improve the pathological structure of cheek pouch mucosa,and significantly reduce the expression of MMP-9,COX-2 and PARP protein in cheek pouch mucosa of golden hamsters(P<0.01).4.Safety evaluation:In the acute toxicity test,10 min after the end of intragastric administration,the mice showed uncoordinated movement,and then prone did not move,but there was no spasm,local paralysis or rigidity,and the mice were breathing normally.After 20 min,the mice returned to normal activity.During the observation period,the animals’diet,water intake and activity were normal.According to the calculation of clinical adults,the above situation would occur only when the oral intake reached 32.7 g/kg in vivo.However,the clinical application of this product was oral and topical gargle with a concentration of 0.163 g/ml and a daily dosage of about 30 ml.The dosage and the amount that could be absorbed to the whole body were less.The results of pathological section showed that there was no obvious pathological change in the morphological structure of each organ(heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney)in the Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang Gargle Group.There was no abnormal general condition and oral mucosa in rats after oral administration.At the same time,the pathological section results showed that therewas no obvious pathological change in the morphological structure of each organ(heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney)in the Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang Gargle Group.Therefore,it can be considered that Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang Gargle has no irritation to oral mucosa,and is safe and low toxic for external use.In local toxicity test,skin irritation test showed that single administration and multiple administration of Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang gargle did not appear erythema,edema and other irritation reactionsin intact and damaged skin areas;In the allergy test shows that Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang gargle use in the skin,do not cause allergic reaction.Conclusion(s):This research showed that the preparation technology of Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang gargle was reasonable,feasible and stable.The quality of the preparation is controllable and stable;It has a good therapeutic effect on chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis.At the same time,it is safe to use Ganjin Jiedu Yuyang gargle locally in the mouth. |
