ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the effect of FSEER on the immunosuppressive and bone-marrow-suppressive mice after chemotherapy,and explore the mechanism of hematopoietic and immunologic function in mice accentuated by FSEER.Methods: Mice were injected cyclophosphamide(Cy)except control group,then randomly divided into mode group(saline),FSEER groups[120,60 mg/( kg· d) ].The spleen index( SI) of all mice was calculated respectively.Flow cytometry instrument testing mice peripheral blood lymphocytes CD3,CD4,CD8 change.The content of TNF-α,IL-2 and IL-12 in mice serum were measured by ELISA kits.Morphological images of bone marrow of the mice were observed under the microscope after Wright-Giemsa′s staining.Results:The spleen index( SI) was increased in both of the two FSEER groups.ELISA analyses showed that the content of TNF-αand IL-2 was increased in both of the two FSEER groups.The population of CD3+CD4+T lymphocyte and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+were all increased in the low dose experimental group.After treated with FSEER, the hematopoietic depression was improved significantly.Conclusion: FSEER can improve the state of immunosuppressive and myelosuppressive mice caused by Cy thus could alleviate the side effect of chemotherapy ef-fectively.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To observe the synergism and attenuation of Fermented Radix Astragali Powder(FAP)on Cyc-lophosphamide(Cy),a tumor chemotherapeutics,and to explore more economical and effective assistant chemotherapeutics.METHODS:In synergism experiments,the mice tumor models(S180 and H22 solid tumor and H22 ascitic tumor)were used to observe the effects of FAP combined with Cy on tumor control rate and survival time of mice.In attenuation experiments,the effects of FAP against toxic reactions including myelosuppression,atrophy of immune organs,and lesions on renal function induced by high dose of Cy in mice were observed.RESULTS:FAP did enhanced the the antitumor effect of Cy on S180 and H22 solid tumor,lessened Cy-induced toxic reactions such as aleucocytosis,the reduction of the nucleated cells in bone marrow and the weight loss of spleen in mice,meanwhile,it showed protective effect on renal function yet without no significant influence on hepatic function.CONCLUSION:FAP has synergistic and attenuation effects on Cy.
