Sairei-to is a herbal prescription originating from traditional Chinese medicine. We conducted an experimental study on rat peritoneal fibrosis to clarify the suppressive mechanisms of sairei-to. Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with chlorhexidine gluconate (CG) every day. Peritoneal specimens were collected after 28 days of CG injection and oral administration of sairei-to. Macrophage infiltration, extracellular matrix accumulation, and angiogenesis were evaluated by immunostaining for ED-1, fibronectin, and CD-31, respectively. To observe oxidative stress in the tissue, 4-hydroxy-2-noneal (HNE) accumulation and plasma levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were detected. As a candidate of antioxidative components in sairei-to, plasma levels of baicalin were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Compared with the disease control group, serum total protein levels were significantly recovered in the sairei-to treatment group. Thickness of the submesothelial compact zone, trichrome-stained area, ED-1-positive cells, fibronectin-staining area, and HNE accumulation were suppressed in the treatment group. Concurrently, decreased plasma levels of SOD activity were recovered by sairei-to treatment. Increased CD-31-positive vessel number and area were also suppressed in the sairei-to group. Baicalin was detected in the plasma samples of the sairei-to group at 0.29 ± 0.11 μg/ml (mean±SEM). These results suggest that sairei-to ameliorates peritoneal fibrosis, partly through suppressing oxidative stress and macrophage infiltration.
