Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the protective effects of ginsenoside Rb1 mixed with LPD compared to mixed with several other lung flush solutions on ischemia-reperfusion injury. Method: Three group of rabbit lungs were perfused with three kinds of mixtures of ginsenoside Rb1 with blood, Euro-Collins solution(EC) or low-potassium-dextran solution(LPD) respectively, then lung dry/wet weight ratio and malondiadehyde(MAD) were examined and histological changes were observed. Result: Lung dry/wet weight ratio of LPD and Rb1 group was higher than that of EC and Rb1 and blood and Rb1 groups, whereas MAD of LPD and Rb1 group was significantly less than that of EC and Rb1 and blood and Rb1 groups（P<0.05）. Histological findings showed less damage in LPD and Rb1 group. Conclusion: Ginsenoside Rb1 mixed with LPD shows a better protective effect on pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion injury compared with other mixtures.
