Abstract:
Objective: To study the effect of tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosidium (TWP) on atopie dermatitis (AD) by detecting the expression of IL-2,IL-4,IFN-γ and IL-IO mRNA. Methods: RT-RCR was used to detect the mRNA of IL-2,IL-4, IFN-γ and IL-10 in peripheral blood mononuelear cells (PBMC)of AD cultured with different concentrations of TWP.ResuRs:(1)The expression of IL-2 was significantly different between the high concentration group and other groups(P<0.05 or P<0.01 ), and between the control group and the middle concentration group (P<0.01). (2)The expression of IL-4 was significantly different between the three different concentration groups (P<0.01 ). (3) The expression of IFN-γmRNA was significantly different between the high concentration group and the control, the low, the middle concentration groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01 ). (4)There was no significant difference in expression of IL-10 mRNA between the high concentration group and the middle concentration group (P>0.05), there was significant difference among the other groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion: TWP can suppress the expression of IL-2, IL-4, IFN-γand IL-10 mRNA, but the low concentration of TWP can suppress the high-level expression of IL-4 and IL-10mRNA in vitro.
