Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effect of oral Yihuang liquor on the immune liver injury of mice METHODS:The mouse models were established by injecting BCG+LPS qd through caudal veins on 10 successive days,then Yihuang liquor was given to mice through gastric tube The serum ALT,AST and weight of liver and spleen were determined,and the pathological changes of the liver were observed under light microscope before and after administration of Yihuang liquor RESULTS:Yihuang liquor in a large dose or middle dose could markedly decrease the levels of serum ALT and AST,lessen the swelling of liver and spleen,reduce the degeneration and necrosis of hepatic cells and inflammatory cell infiltration in portal area in mice with liver damage On one hand Yihuang liquor in a low dose could inhibit the immunofunction and alleviate delayed hypersensitive reaction in mice with normal or enhanced cellular immunofunction but on the other it could raise immunofunction and enhance the delayed hypersensitive reaction in mice with hypoimmunofunction CONCLUSION:Yihuang liquor can regulate cellular immunofunction and obviously protect the immune liver injury
