【Abstract】 About 100 male SD rats aged 2, 5, 10, 18 and 24 months (each age group for about 20 rats) wereused in the antisenility experiment. The animals of each age group were further subdivided into twogroups randomly: one group administered with Wuzi Yanzong Liquid (WYL) daily for 5 weeks, andthe other group with normal saline. After treatment, plasma testosterone (T) and estradiol (E2),hypothalamus norepinephrine (NE), dopamine (DA) and serotonin (5-HT) levels were determined. Incomparison with younger groups, the 18 and 24 months old rats administered with saline hadmarkedly lowered plasma T, hypothalamus NE and DA levels, and elevated 5-HT, E2 levels and 5-HT/DA, E2/T ratios; while in the 18 and 24 months rats administered with WYL the abovementioned changes were much less remarkable. Since WYL only raised plasma T level in old rats but not in younger ones, this drug seems to have different action from testosterone preparations. Inanother animal experiment, the reproduction promoting effect of WYL was shown by the increaseof sperm count and motility of sperms in old male rats as well as its reproductive ability.更多还原
