Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of Sishen Pill and Gegen Qinlian Tablet on cytokines of acute and chronic colitis induced by dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in mice. Methods Mice freely drank 4%DSS dissolved in drinking water for continuous 5 days to establish acute colitis model. Mice circularly drank 3% DSS for 4 times for the establishment of chronic colitis model. In the acute or chronic colitis experiment, mice were randomly divided into control group, acute and chronic model groups, Sishen Pill group, and Gegen Qinlian Tablet group. Acute model group was administrated one day after DSS drinking for 8 days. Chronic model group was administrated after the second time of circular drinking for 16 days. ELISA was used to detect the contents of IFN-γ, IL-17 and IL-22 in cultural supernatant of mouse colon. Results Contents of IFN-γ, IL-17A and IL-22 in cultural supernatant increased significantly in acute models (P<0.01). Gegen Qinlian Tablet can significantly decrease the contents of IFN-γ and IL-17A of acute models (P<0.05). Sishen Pill can significantly decrease the content of IL-17A (P<0.05). IFN-γand IL-17A in cultural supernatant in chronic model mice significantly increased compared with control group (P<0.01). Sishen Pill and Gegen Qinlian Tablet inhibited the contents of IFN-γ and IL-17A. Compared with control group, Sishen Pill significantly increased the content of IL-22 (P<0.05). Conclusion Sishen Pill and Gegen Qinlian Tablet can treat colitis by decreasing the contents of IFN-γ and IL-17A in acute colitis model mice;Sishen Pill can treat chronic colitis by promoting IL-22 to increase.
