摘　　要：Objective：To investigate the effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction（补阳还五汤,BYHWD） on estradiol（E2） and estradiol receptor（ER） in serum and brain in ovariectomized rats after middle cerebral artery occlusion（MCAO）.Methods：Adult female rats were ovariectomized and focal cerebral ischemic was induced by MCAO.Rats were randomly divided into normal,ovariectomy（OVX）,MCAO,OVX＋MCAO,OVX＋MCAO＋E2,and OVX＋MCAO＋BYHWD group.Rats were administered BYHWD 5 g/kg daily,estradiol valerate 500 μg/kg per day or distilled water for 7 consecutive days.Neuronal function and infarct volume were measured on day 7 after artery occlusion,and E2 and ER concentration in serum and brain were checked by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results：BYHWD significantly improved the neurological behavior,reduced the infarction volume,increased E2concentration in serum and brain,and increased ER concentration in the brain in ovariectomized rats after MCAO.Conclusion：The neuroprotective effects of BYHWD are associated with estrogen and its receptor.Objective：To investigate the effect of Buyang Huanwu Decoction（补阳还五汤,BYHWD） on estradiol（E2） and estradiol receptor（ER） in serum and brain in ovariectomized rats after middle cerebral artery occlusion（MCAO）.Methods：Adult female rats were ovariectomized and focal cerebral ischemic was induced by MCAO.Rats were randomly divided into normal,ovariectomy（OVX）,MCAO,OVX＋MCAO,OVX＋MCAO＋E2,and OVX＋MCAO＋BYHWD group.Rats were administered BYHWD 5 g/kg daily,estradiol valerate 500 μg/kg per day or distilled water for 7 consecutive days.Neuronal function and infarct volume were measured on day 7 after artery occlusion,and E2 and ER concentration in serum and brain were checked by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results：BYHWD significantly improved the neurological behavior,reduced the infarction volume,increased E2concentration in serum and brain,and increased ER concentration in the brain in ovariectomized rats after MCAO.Conclusion：The neuroprotective effects of BYHWD are associated with estrogen and its receptor.
