Lesions were observed in experiment. Histopathologically, lymphopenia and congestion were observed in the medulla of thymic lobule. Ultrastructurally, there were more apoptosis lymphocytes, and the mitochondria of lymphocytes were swelled in thymus of methionine deficiency. The G0/G~ phase of the cell cycle of the thymus was much higher （P〈0.01）, and the S, G2＋M phases and proliferating index （PI） were lower （P〈0.01） in methionine deficiency than in control group. And the percentage of apoptotic cells in the thymus was significantly increased in methionine deficiency （P〈0.01）. The percentage of CD4＋ and CD8~ T-cells was decreased in methionine deficiency compared with control group. Meanwhile, the proliferation function of peripheral blood T-cell was decreased in methionine deficiency. Also, the serum IL-2 contents were decreased in methionine deficiency. It was concluded that methionine deficiency could cause pathological and ultrastructural changes of thymus, reduce the T-cell population, serum IL-2 contents and the proliferation function of T- cells, and induce increased percentage of apoptotic cells. The cellular immune function was finally impaired in broilers.展开更多

[Method] Taking immunosuppressive mice induced by 80 mg/kg cyclophosphamide as test animal model, effects of different doses （100,200 and 400 mg/kg） of YPF-P on spleen index, serum IL-2 and IFN-γ levels of mice were studied. [ Result] High dose of YPF-P （400 mg/kg） could improve the spleen index of immunosuppressive mice （P 〈0.05）. YPF-P could enhance serum IL-2 and IFN-γ levels of immunosuppressive mice, and the effects in middle-dose group and low-dose group were better. YPF-P could significantly increase serum IL-2 level of normal mice （ P 〈 0.01 ）, but it had no significant effect on serum IFN-γ level of normal mice. [ Conclusion] The research provides an experimental basis for clinical application of YPF-P.展开更多
