RESUMO
Aim To investigate the effects of Periplane-ta americana extract Ento-A on the immune function in immunosuppressed mice . Methods Immunosup-pressed mouse model was induced by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide in KM mice .To evalu-ate the effects of Ento-A on the immune function in im-munosuppressed mice , neutral red method and MTT assay were used respectively to detect the effects of En-to-A on the phagocytosis of peritoneal macrophages and T cell proliferation rate in mice; with sheep red blood cell as immunogen , the effects of Ento-A on the pro-duction of serum hemolysin were evaluated;peripheral blood was tested and immune organ index calculated . Results Compared with model control group , the high, medium and low doses of Ento-A could improve the expression of serum hemolysin in immunosup-pressed mice ( P<0.01 ) , and increase the spleen in-dex(P<0.01) and thymus index (P>0.05), signifi-cantly increased the content of WBC ( P<0.01 ) , PLT ( P<0.01 ) , HGB ( P<0.01 ) , while the contents of RBC was on the rise , with no significant difference ( P>0.05 ) in peripheral blood , significantly enhanced phagocytic function and T lymphocyte proliferative abil-ity in a dose-dependent manner ( P<0.01 ) .Conclu-sion Ento-A can enhance the immune function of im-munosuppressed mice .
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of Yun-Pi Prescription on hemolysin antibody,and approach its mechanism of regulating immune function.Methods Forty-eight KM mice were randomly divided into high,medium and low dose of Yun-Pi Prescription groups,which were given 20,10,5 mL/kg Yun-Pi Prescription respectively,and one control group with no intervention.From the seventh day,all groups were injected with chicken red blood cell for seven days.Levels of serum hemolytic optical density were measured in all groups.Results Compared with control group,levels of serum hemolytic optical density in Yun-Pi Prescription groups increased significantly(P
RESUMO
Aim The effect of capsule bushenyanshou (BSYS), a compound of traditional Chinesemedicine, on the immunopharmacological activities of mice was investigated. MethodsThe indexes of immunopharmacological activity, such as the clearance rate of charcoalparticles, the lymphocyte transformation and the content of serum hemolysin, were mea-sured. Results Capsule BSYS (400, 800 mg?kg-1, qd ? 12) markedly increased theclearance rate of iv charcoal particles and 1he lymphocyte transformation stimulated invivo by PHA in mice. In hydrocortisone -treated mice(15 mg? kg-1, sc, qd ? 5), capsuleBSYS significantly enhanced the content of serum hemolysin and the weights of spleenand thymus. The results also demonstrated capsule BSYS performed a sighted inhibition ofthe delayed type hypersensitivity in mice. Conclusion Capsule BSYS has the capacity ofimmunological intensification and regulation.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of Xiaoyan Quzhi tablet(XYQZ) on specific and non-specific immunologic functions in mice METHODS:The phagocytosis of mononuclear phagocytes in mice was measured by carbon powder clearance method Chicken serum hemolysin level in the mice immunized by chicken red blood cell was measured with 721-spectrophotometer RESULTS:XYQZ could obviously increase the phagocytosis of mononuclear phagocytes and promote B-lymphocytes to produce serum antibody There were significant differences between experiment group and control group(P
RESUMO
Weanling Wistar rats were fed a modified AIN-76 diet ad libitum for 25 to 57 days, either copper-deficient (0.49mg/kg; CuD) or copper-adequate (6.44mg/kg;CuA). The effects of dietary copper deficiency on the enzymatic components of the primary free radical defense system-super-oxide dismutase (SOD), catalasc (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), lipoperoxides (LPO) and serum hemolysin were examined. The amount of LPO exhibited no significant change even though SOD activity decreased significantly in the tissues of CuD rats, which indicated that Cu-ZnSOD activity responded directly to copper status of the body but the compromises in the overall protection against free radicals were not evident. The profound reduction in scrum hemolysin in CuD rats suggests that humoral immune function is copper dependent. The results also suggest that as an index of evaluating copper nutriture CuZnSOD is more sensitive than hemoglobin to copper deficiency.
