The CD25, CD45RA and CD45RO phenotypes of lymphocytes were 4eter-mined by indirect immunofluorescence technique. The percentage of CD25, CD45RA and CD45ROpositive lymphocytes was 38.3%±17.3%, 46.0% 15.1%, and 52.6%±14.1% respectively after incu-bation with PHA (5 μ±/ml) for 72 hours. However, there were 58.0%±12.5%, CD25, 64.1% ± 12.4%,CD45RA, and 74.0%±8.0%, CD45RO positive cells in the presence of Rg, ( 1μg/ml) along with PHA(5 μg/ml) over the sanie period of incubation. A significant increase was induced by Rgi (P<0.05).The activities of PTK in the cytoplasm and membrane of lymphocytes were measured by ELISAmcthod after incubation with PHA or PHA+Rg1. The absorbance value of PTK activity in cytoplasmafter 72 hr incubation was 0. 120±0.020 in PHA group, but 0. 1 38±0.015 in PHA+Rg1 group. In thelymphocyte membrane, it was 0.374± 0.060 in PHA group and 0.403 ± 0.008 in PHA+Rg1 group(P<0.001). These results showed that Rgi significantly arid simultaneously increased both the PT Kactivity and the expression of phenotype of lymphocytes.展开更多

Methods: Bleomycin was introduced into the bronchial tree of 75 Wistar male rats through a tracheal incision to establish a rat model of pulmonary fibrosis (PF). The rats were equally divided into 3 groups: PF group, PN treated group and MP treated group. Five rats of each group were killed 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 d after the administration of bleomycin and the specimens of lung tissue and plasma were collected for the determination of content of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ with immunohistochemical method and the level of MIP-1α and MCP-1 with ELIZA. Results: The severity of PF, the content of collagen Ⅰ and Ⅲ and the level of MIP-1α and MCP-1 were significantly decreased in PN and MP treated groups than in PF group (P<0.05). Conclusion: PN and MP are effective to control the development of PF induced with bleomycin in rats.展开更多
