Objectives and Methods : Unlike respiratory anaphylaxis responses, mediators responsible for cardiovascular responses are not clearly elucidated. Main characteristics of cardiovascular anaphylaxis include hypotension and cardiac failure (anhythmia and cardiac contraction failure). In this experiment, the fractionations of Sophorae Radix (SR) were tested for its preventive effects against cardiovascular anaphylaxis in pithed rats. Results : Of the SR fractionations, water fractions, at the concentration of 20 and 60mg/kg, was significantly effective on all the cardiovascular changes in pithed rats. Also, of the cardiovascular changes, depressor response was significantly attenuated by the ethyl acetate (EA) fraction, at the concentration of 60mg/kg. Conclusions : These results suggest that water and EA fractions of the SR fractionations possess anti. anaphylactic effects in pithed rats. Additional research is needed to identify active principles for the observed pharmacological effects.
