Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effects of effects of Xinfeng capsule(XFC) on platelet parameters(platelet count,thrombocytocrit,mean platelet volume,platelet distribution width) and on the serum levels of cytokines(IL-1?,TNF-?,IL-10) in adjuvant arthritis(AA) rats.Methods:40 SD masculine rats were averagely divided into groups of normal control,model control,XFC treatment,methotrexate(MTX) and tripterygium wilfordii polycoride tablet(TPT) alone,with 8 in each.Except for the rats of normal group,the others were intracutaneously injected with 0.1 ml of Freund′s complete adjuvant in the right hindlimb.The changes of platelet parameters (PLT,PCT,PDW,MPV) were observed by Sysmex XT-2000i automatic cytoanalyze and serum cytokines(IL-1?,TNF-?,IL-10)were analyzed with ELISA kit.Results:1.Compared with those of normal control,platelet count,thrombocytocrit,IL-1?、TNF-? of AA rats were obviously increased and IL-10 was obviously decreased in the model groups(P0.05).3.PLT and PCT of the rats were positively correlated with serum contents of IL-1? and TNF-?,as well as voix pedis′swelling and arthritis index(AI).In addition, IL-10 concentration in the serum was negatively correlated with PLT and PCT(P
