Abstract:
Aim To investigate the immunoregulative action of polysacchrides of Spirulina platensis ( PSP ) on peripheral blood mononuclear cells ( PBMCs) in pa-tients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Meth-ods Proliferation and cycle of PBMCs from patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection were measured by MTT colorimetry and flow cytometry respectively. The concentration of IFN-γ, IL-2 , IL-4 in supernatants of PBMCs were examined by ELISA. The mRNA ex-pression of IFN-γin PBMCs from patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection was detected by RT-PCR. Results PSP could induce proliferation of PBMCs in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. In ad-dition, PSP could increase the protein expression of IFN-γ and IL-2 in supernatants of PBMCs in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection, and PSP could also enhance the mRNA expression of IFN-γof PBMCs in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. However, PSP inhibited the protein expression of IL-4 of PBMCs in patients with chronic hepatitis B virus in-fection. Conclusion PSP can promote the immune function and plays an important immunoregulation function on patients with chronic hepatitis B virus in-fection.
