[0034] Experimental Example 1

[0035] Donor mice: 7-week-old male C57BL / 6 mice; recipient mice: 7-week-old female C57BL / 6 mice.

[0036] The donor mice are intraperitoneally injected with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (5 μg / mouse / day) for 3 consecutive days, then the mice are sacrificed by cervical dislocation, and the femur and tibia are isolated. The bone marrow cavity is flushed with DMEM medium to prepare a single cell suspension.

[0037] The single cell suspension is slowly added to a centrifuge tube containing lymphocyte separation medium (Ficoll-Paque), and centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 20 min. The middle white membrane layer is collected and washed twice, and the cell concentration is adjusted to 6×10 7 / mL to obtain bone marrow cells.

[0038] The recipient mice were randomly divided into 4 groups, blank control group, Example 1 drug group, positive control group and model control group. The recipient mice of the Example 1 drug group, the positive control group and the model control group were subjected to single whole body irradiation with 60Co γ rays, and the dose was 10 Gy (lethal dose). 24 h after irradiation, the donor bone marrow cells were transfused through the tail vein. Each recipient mouse was injected with 0.1 mL of bone marrow cells. The mice in the blank control group were not subjected to irradiation and drug injection. The drug treatment was performed immediately after injection of the bone marrow cells. The mice in the Example 1 drug group were orally administered with the traditional Chinese medicine powder of Example 1 at an amount of 0.01 mg / g / d, the mice in the positive control group were orally administered with recombinant human thrombopoietin TPO at an amount of 0.01 mg / g / d, and the mice in the model control group were orally administered with normal saline. The oral administration was continuously performed for 14 d.

[0039] The body weight of each mouse was recorded every day, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0040] Table 1 Influence of different drugs on the body weight of mice

[0041] As shown in Table 1, the body weight of the mice orally administered with the traditional Chinese medicine powder of Example 1 was higher than that of the mice in the positive drug group, which indicated that the drug of Example 1 had an improvement effect on the bone marrow hematopoietic stem cell transplanted mice.

[0042] On the 7th day and the 14th day of oral administration, blood was taken from the ophthalmic fundus venous plexus of the mice, and the blood routine of each group of mice was detected using a blood cell analyzer, and the platelet level of each group of mice was obtained. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0043] Table 2 Influence of different drugs on the platelet level of hematopoietic stem cell transplanted mice

[0044] As shown in Table 2, the mice orally administered with the drug of Example 1 can improve the platelet level of the hematopoietic stem cell transplanted mice.

[0045] After the experiment, the mice were sacrificed, and the liver and spleen of the mice were taken, and the liver index and spleen index of the mice were calculated. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0046] Table 3 Influence of different drugs on the organ index of hematopoietic stem cell transplanted mice

[0047] As shown in Table 3, after the mice were orally administered with the traditional Chinese medicine powder of Example 1, the liver and spleen did not have obvious changes, which indicated that the traditional Chinese medicine powder of the application was safe for the mice and could be safely used.

[0048] Experimental Example 2

[0049] From October 2022 to October 2023, 10 patients (4 males and 6 females, with an average age of 34.6 years) with platelet reduction after allogeneic transplantation were treated with the pill of Example 2. All patients were completely donor engrafted, subcutaneously injected with recombinant human granulocyte stimulating factor 48 hours after transplantation, subcutaneously injected with recombinant thrombopoietin for 14 days, and patients whose platelets did not recover to normal levels. The family members of all patients signed the informed consent form and began to use the pill of Example 2 of the application for treatment. The platelet level of the patient was 20×10 9 / L to 40×10 9 / L. The patient was given 1 pill of the pill of Example 2 per day, taken with water. It was observed for 4 consecutive weeks.

[0050] Efficacy criteria: complete effectiveness is defined as platelets ≥ 50×10 9 / L, and platelets ≥ 50×10 9 / L for 7 consecutive days after not taking the drug; partial effectiveness is defined as the platelet level being improved compared to before, but still not reaching ≥ 50×10 9 / L; and ineffectiveness is defined as the platelet level not being improved.

[0051] Blood routine was detected every week, and the number of platelets was counted. The final treatment results are shown in Table 4.

[0052] Table 4 Effect of the pill of Example 2 of the application on thrombocytopenia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

[0053] As can be seen from Table 4, after treating thrombocytopenia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with the pill of the application, the number of completely effective people reached 60%, the number of partially effective people reached 20%, and the total effective rate reached 80%.
