Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of Qingluotongbi granule(QLT) on RANKL(receptor activator of nuclear factor-?B ligand) expression in peripheral blood T lymphocytes of RA patients.Methods:RANKL expression of peripheral blood T lymphocyts was examined using flow cytometry.Six cases of RA patients were enrolled with six healthy volunteers as the control.Meanwhile examination for the level of RANKL expression in T cells after incubation in presense of QLT-contained serum was observed.Results:RANKL expression of peripheral blood T lymphocytes was much higher in active state RA patients than in healthy people(P
