Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of Astragalus Polysaccharide on peripheral circulation myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) in lung cancer and its clinical effect. Methods 100 patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer were selected and divided into 2 groups, 50 cases in the control group treated with chemotherapy aalone, 50 cases in the experiment group received injection of Astragalus Polysaccharide on the basis of the control group, peripheral blood MDSC levels, peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets levels, serum ARG I activity, TNF-α, IL-6 levels, the clinical effect and incidence of adverse reactions were compared after the treatment. Results Compared with the control group, peripheral blood levels of MDSC (Lin-HLA DR-\CD33+\CD11b+) was lower after treatment in the experiment group , peripheral blood levels of CD3+, CD4+T lymphocytes and CD4+/CD8+ were higher, and CD8+T lymphocytes level was lower after treatment, serum levels of ARG I activity, TNF-α, IL-6 levels were lower after treatment, (P<0.05) , the total effective rate in the control group(42.0%)was lower than the experiment group(64.0%), (P<0.05), the incidence of gastrointestinal reaction(40/24), 3 ~ 4 degree of leukocyte reduction(26/12), liver function damage(19/9), renal damage(17/7) in the control group were higher than the experiment group (P<0.05). Conclusion Astragalus Polysaccharide can significantly reduce the peripheral circulation MDSC (Lin-HLA DR-\CD33+\CD11b+) level in patients with lung cancer, improve T lymphocyte immune function, inhibit the activity of serum ARG I, reduce the level of TNF-αand IL-6, effectively improve the clinical efficacy, and reduce the toxic and side effects of chemotherapy.
