Laboratory research of the influence of keyouling on the proliferation of human prepuce epidermis cells and condyloma acuminatum cells / 中华男科学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the mechanism of the Chinese medicine Keyouling in the treatment of condyloma axuminatum (CA).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Human prepuce epidermis cells and CA cells were primarily cultured and subcultured. We determined the proliferation of human prepuce epidermis cells and CA cells, and observed the influence of Keyouling with different concentrations on the proliferation of human prepuce epidermis cells and CA cells by means of MTT colourimetry assay.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The absorbance was directly proportional to the numbers of human prepuce epidermis cells (r = 0.9850, P < 0.001) and CA cells (r = 0.9892, P < 0.001). Keyouling had no effect on proliferation of the human prepuce epidermis cells, but it had significant inhibition on CA cells. The concentrations of Keyouling bore negative correlation with the proliferation percentage of CA cells(r = -0.4124, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Keyouling can significantly restrain the growth and proliferation of CA cells but has no damaging effect on normal organic cuticle cells. It is suggested that Keyouling might have anti-HPV effect.</p>

Experimental and clinical research on the effect of keyouling on condyloma acuminatum and adjustment of cellular immunity function / 中华男科学杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the mechanism of the traditional Chinese medicine Keyouling oral liquid in the treatment of condyloma acuminatum(CA) and the adjustment of cellular immunity function.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The IL-18 and TNF-alpha levels of peripheral serum and wart tissue of patterned rats and CA patients exposed to Keyouling were determined by means of double-antibody sandwich ELISA, and the NK cellular activity of the spleen of the patterned rats and that of the peripheral blood of the CA patients exposed to Keyouling were determined by means of 3H-TdR isotype release.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The IL-18 and TNF-alpha levels, the NK cellular activity of the high-dosage group showed significant difference from those of the pattern group and low-dosage group in animal experiment(P < 0.05); the IL-18 and TNF-alpha levels of peripheral serum and wart tissues, and the NK cellular activity of the peripheral blood of the treatment group showed significant difference from those of the control group after treatment(P < 0.01, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Keyouling oral liquid has significant positive adjusting effect, which can markedly ameliorate the cellular immunadeficiency of the patterned animals and reinforce the cellular immunocompetence of CA patients.</p>
