This study aims to explore the anti-inflammatory and hemostatic effects of the total extract of Clinopodium chinense(TEC), total saponins of C. chinense(TSC), and total flavonoids of C. chinense(TFC) in female rats with abnormal uterine bleeding(AUB), and the possible mechanism. Mifepristone(i.g., 12.4 mg·kg~(-1)) and misoprostol(i.g., 130 μg·kg~(-1)) were used to induce AUB in SD female rats conceiving on the same day. Then the AUB rats were randomized into model group, TEC group, TSC group, TFC group, Yimucao Granules(LG) group, and estradiol valerate(EV) group, with 8 rats in each group. Another 8 non-pregnant female rats were selected as normal group. During the experiment, each group was given the corresponding drug by gavage once a day for 7 days. After the administration, blood and uterine tissue were collected. The uterine bleeding volume was measured by ultraviolet spectrophotometry and the pathological changes of endometrium were observed based on hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. In addition, the microvessel density of endometrium was determined by immunohistochemistry, and the content of thromboxane B2(TXB2), 6-keto-PGF_(1α), interleukin-6(IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in plasma and levels of lutenizing hormone(LH), follicle stimulating hormone(FSH), estradiol(E_2), and progesterone in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The mRNA and protein expression of estrogenreceptor α(ERα), progesterone receptor(PR), matrix metalloprote...
