Abstract:

In order to study the effects of ultrafine powder of Radix Isatidis on immune regulation in rats,cyclophosphamide was used to construct the model of immunodeficiency.80 SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:Model group,ordinary powder group,ultrafine powder group and blank control group with 20 rats in each group.40 mg/kg cyclophosphamide was injected intraperitoneally for 5 d.From 6th day,The blank control group and model group were given normal saline,and the other groups were given 5 g/kg ordinary powder or ultrafine powder.At 7th and 14th day,the blood samples and liver,spleen and thymus tissues were collected.The white blood cell count (WBC),organ indexes of spleen and thymus,C3b-R,ICR,phagocytosis indexes were detected.Real-time PCR was used to detect the transcription levels of TNF-α and IL-2 mRNA.The expression of TNF-ɑ and IL-2 protein were detected by Western blotting.The results showed that the WBC,body weight,thymus and spleen indexes in model group were significantly lower than those in the blank control group (P<0.05).On the 14th day,the percentage of macrophage phagocytosis of rat in ultrafine powder group reached 54.7%,the index of macrophage phagocytosis was 0.58.The C3b-R of rat at 14th day in ultrafine powder group was 9.44%,significantly higher than that of the ordinary power group (8.97%)(P<0.05).And the ICR of ultrafine powder group was 6.09%,lower than that of the ordinary power group (6.33%)(P>0.05).Compared with the ordinary powder group,the ultrafine powder of Radix Isatidis could increase the expression of TNF-ɑ and IL-2 in liver on the 14th day.In conlusion,ordinary powder and ultrafine powder of Radix Isatidis could both enhance the nonspecific immune function of rats,and ultrafine powder was superior to the ordinary powder.
