Effect of Baihuzhuifeng Pills on Interlukin-1? Secreted by Synoviocyte in Adjuvant Arthritis Rats / 中成药

Objective: To study the effect of Baihuzhuifeng Pills (BHZFP) on interleukin 1?(IL 1?) secreted by synoviocytes in adjuvant arthritis (AA) rats. Methods: Synovium of knee joints from AA rats were digested by collagenase and tripsin to prepare DSSC(digested synovial single cells). The content of the supernatant fluid was assayed by the radioimmunoassay. Results: BHZFP down regulated IL 1? productions of DSSC.Conclusion: It is suggested that BHZFP be probably inhibit the over proliferation of synoviocyte in AA rats by diminishing IL 1? secretion.
