Methods: C57/6J male mice were randomly assigned to the control group (CON group), LPS model group (LPS group), and Lianmei Decoction treatment group (LMD group), with 6 mice in each group. After 7 days of adaptive feeding, normal saline and a therapeutic dose of LMD were given orally for 21 days. In the 22 days of the study, PBS was injected intraperitoneally into the CON group, and 5 mg/kg LPS was administered intraperitoneally to the remaining two groups to create a sepsis mouse model. Ileum, liver, and lung tissues were gathered 24 hours after intraperitoneal injection. Histopathological examination was done using HE staining;the amounts of ileal barrier factors (ZO-1, Occludin) and inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-8, TNF-α) in liver and lung tissues were detected by RT-qPCR. Results: Compared with the CON group, the body weight of the LPS group decreased dramatically (n = 6;P β, IL-8, TNF-a) in liver and lung tissues (n = 6;P < 0.05), reduce the pathological damage of liver and pulmonary tissue. Conclusion: Lianmei Decoction can effectively improve ileal barrier damage, liver and lung injury, and inflammatory imbalance in LPS-induced sepsis mice.展开更多
