Herbal formula BaWeiBaiDuSan alleviates polymicrobial sepsis-induced liver injury via increasing the gut microbiota Lactobacillus johnsonii and regulating macrophage anti-inflammatory activity in mice

Sepsis-induced liver injury (SILI) is an important cause of septicemia deaths. BaWeiBaiDuSan (BWBDS) was extracted from a formula of Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer, Lilium brownie F. E. Brown ex Miellez var. viridulum Baker, Polygonatum sibiricum Delar. ex Redoute, Lonicera japonica Thunb., Hippophae rhamnoides Linn., Amygdalus Communis Vas, Platycodon grandiflorus (Jacq.) A. DC., and Cortex Phelloderdri. Herein, we investigated whether the BWBDS treatment could reverse SILI by the mechanism of modulating gut microbiota. BWBDS protected mice against SILI, which was associated with promoting macrophage anti-inflammatory activity and enhancing intestinal integrity. BWBDS selectively promoted the growth of Lactobacillus johnsonii (L. johnsonii) in cecal ligation and puncture treated mice. Fecal microbiota transplantation treatment indicated that gut bacteria correlated with sepsis and was required for BWBDS anti-sepsis effects. Notably, L. johnsonii significantly reduced SILI by promoting macrophage anti-inflammatory activity, increasing interleukin-10+ M2 macrophage production and enhancing intestinal integrity. Furthermore, heat inactivation L. johnsonii (HI-L. johnsonii) treatment promoted macrophage anti-inflammatory activity and alleviated SILI. Our findings revealed BWBDS and gut microbiota L. johnsonii as novel prebiotic and probiotic that may be used to treat SILI. The potential underlying mechanism was at least in part, via L. johnsonii-dependent immune regulation and interleukin-10+ M2 macrophage production.

Effect of Cluster Needling of Scalp Acupuncture Combined with Rehabilitation on Cellular Immunity of Immunosuppressive Rats / 中国康复理论与实践

@#ObjectiveTo observe the effect of cluster needling of scalp acupuncture combined with rehabilitation(Tang's Approach) on interleukin-4 (IL-4), T lymphocyte subsets of immunosuppressive model rat.Methods40 healthy SD rats (male, 200～250 g) was divided into 5 groups randomly: normal group (NG), model group (MG), acupuncture group(AG), rehabilitation group(RG), and acupuncture with rehabilitation group(ARG), 8 rats in each group. Each group was treated by acupuncture or rehabilitation except the model or normal group, once a day for 10 d. Radioimmunoassay and malondialdehydein (MDA) technique were used to test the contents of IL-4 and T lymphocyte subsets in each group. ResultsThe contents of IL-4 of immunosuppressive rats can decrease significantly in RG and ARG (P＜0.05). The level of CD4+ T lymphocyte increased more significantly in AG and RAG than in MG after the treatment (P＜0.01). ConclusionTang's Approach can decrease the contents of IL-4 and improve the level of CD4+ T lymphocyte in rats.

TAF to The Hypoimmunity Mice on Effect of T Cell Polarization / 浙江中医药大学学报

[Objective]To study the effect of T cell groups of CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,IL-4,IFN-? in the hypoimmunitymice induced by hydrocortisone to discuss its function of regulating the immune function and CD4+TH cell’s inferior change of group,have offered the experiment basis for clinical practice of TAF.[Method] FACS measured the T lymphocyte phenotype;the level of cytokine IFN-r and IL-4 was detected by ELISA.[Result] TAF can raise CD4+T lymphocyte of hypoimmunitymice,suppress CD8+ T lymphocyte expression,raise CD4+/CD8+ ratio;And can make the level of serum IFN-r obviously enhanced in hypoimmunitymice,and the level of IL-4 was very low.[Conclusion] TAF can rebuild immune function of hypoimmunitymice,promote organism Th0 to split up to Th1,maintain the advantage state of TH1,and strengthen the function of cellular mediated immunoresponse.
