Effect of YGP on cell apoptosis in the dexamethasone-stimulated anterior pituitary (TUNEL staining, × 200).

(A) Control group: rats were intramuscularly injected with normal saline, and intragastrically administered normal saline; (B) dexamethasone group: rats were injected intramuscularly with dexamethasone; (C) dexamethasone plus YGP group: rats were intramuscularly injected with dexamethasone, and intragastrically administered YGP; (D) YGP groups: rats were intramuscularly injected with normal saline, and intragastrically administered YGP. Arrows indicate apoptotic cells. There are less TUNEL-positive cells in the dexamethasone plus YGP group than in the dexamethasone group. There are no visible TUNEL-positive cells in the YGP and control groups. YGP: Yougui Pill; TUNEL: terminal dexoynucleotide transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick-and labeling.
