Abstract:
Aim To investigate the protective effects of chrysophanol( Chry) on immune function of lead poi-soning mice. Methods The lead poisoning model was established by peritoneally injecting mice with 7 mg · kg-1 lead acetate every day for 8 days. After Chry was ip injected for 14 days,spleen and thymus index, the white blood cell count, T, B lymphocyte proliferation, phagocytic function of macrophages, natural killer cell ( NK cell) activity were detected. The concentrations of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10 in the lead poisoning mice ser-um were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) . Results Intraperitoneal injection of 7 mg · kg-1 lead acetate for 8 consecutive days could cause an immunity decline in lead poisoning mice, Chry could significantly improve the immunity of lead poisoning mice. Compared with model group, Chry sig-nificantly improved growth rate, viscera index and white blood cell count of lead poisoning mice at differ-ent extent ( P<0 . 05 or P<0. 01 ) . Chry ( 1 . 0 ,10 . 0 mg·kg-1 ) significantly increased the B,T lymphocyte proliferation ( P<0 . 01 ) and the phagocytosis of macro-phage and NK cell activity ( P <0 . 01 ) . Compared with the control group, the concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-2 , IL-4 , IL-10 of lead poisoning mice serum were significantly reduced ( P <0 . 01 ) . Compared with the model group, Chry (1. 0、10. 0 mg·kg-1 ) significant-ly increased the concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-2 , IL-4 , IL-10 ( P <0. 01 ) , while there were no significant changes in (0. 1 mg·kg-1 ) concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-2 , IL-4 in Chry ( 0 . 1 mg · kg-1 ) treatment group ( P>0. 05 ) , only IL-10 was significantly increased in Chry ( 0 . 1 mg · kg-1 ) treatment group ( P<0 . 05 ) . Conclusion Chry can significantly improve the im-mune function of lead poisoning mice.
