Abstract:
Objective:To explore whether the Formula of Tonifying Kidney of Vital Essence can modulate secretion of IL-4 and IFN-? by the CD4+T cells from human decidua during first trimester,which will lead to further investigate the anti-abortional effect mechanisms of the Formula of Tonifying Kidney of Vital Essence.Methods:40 female adult SD rats were divided randomly into two groups:one group was gavaged with the Formula of Tonifying Kidney of Vital Essence;another was gavaged with normal saline,twice a day for 3 days.The two groups of rats were gavaged with the same volume of the decoction or saline.Thereafter the blood was collected from carotid artery.Human decidua tissues were collected by artificial abortion at 6-10 weeks of gestation.The CD4+ T cells were separated by MACS.CD4+ T cells were divided into four groups during cell culture.Group A was treated with 10% fetal calf serum,which was the control group.Group B was treated with 10% of the rat serum from the herbal medicine;Group C was treated with 20% of the rat serum from the herbal medicin.Group D was treated with the rat serum of the saline control.The supernatants were harvested at 24,48 and 72 h of the culture,respectively.The amounts of IL-4 and IFN-? in the culture supernatants were measured by ELISA.Results:In both group B and C of the culture the amount of IL-4 was evidently elevated when compared with the control,group A(P
