This study established a rat model of cerebral hemorrhage by injecting autologous anticoagulated blood.Rat models were intragastrically administered 5,10,20 g/kg Poxue Huayu and Tianjing Busui Decoction,supplemented with Hirudo,raw rhubarb,raw Pollen Typhae,gadfly,Fructrs Trichosanthis,Radix Notoginseng,Rhizoma Acori Talarinowii,and glue of tortoise plastron,once a day,for 14 consecutive days.Results demonstrated that brain water content significantly reduced in rats with cerebral hemorrhage,and intracerebral hematoma volume markedly reduced after treatment.Immunohistochemical staining revealed that brain-derived neurotrophic factor,tyrosine kinase B and vascular endothelial growth factor expression noticeably increased around the surrounding hematoma.Reverse transcription-PCR revealed that brain-derived neurotrophic factor and tyrosine kinase B mRNA expression significantly increased around the surrounding hematoma.Neurologic impairment obviously reduced.These results indicated that Poxue Huayu and Tianjing Busui Decoction exert therapeutic effects on cerebral hemorrhage by upregulating the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor.

Rat models were intragastrically administered 5, 10, 20 g / kg Poxue Huayu and Tianjing Busui Decoction, supplemented with Hirudo, raw rhubarb, raw Pollen Typhae, gadfly, Fructrs Trichosanthis , Radix Notoginseng, Rhizoma Acori Talarinowii, and glue of tortoise plastron, once a day, for 14 consecutive days. Results of that brain water content significantly reduced in rats with cerebral hemorrhage, and intracerebral hematoma volume markedly reduced after treatment. Immunohistochemical staining revealed that brain-derived neurotrophic factor, tyrosine kinase B and vascular endothelial growth factor expression noticeably increased around the surrounding hematoma.

Neurologic deficit reduced These results indicated that P oxue Huayu and Tianjing Busui Decoction exert therapeutic effects on cerebral hemorrhage by upregulating the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor.
