Abstract:
Aim To investigate changes of eosinophil(EOS) and mast cells(MC) in airway of young asthmatic rats and to evaluate of achyranthes bidentata polysaccharides(ABPS) on it.Methods Fifty Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups,ten rats per group:asthmatic group(A),control group(C),pretreatment groups with ABPS which was done according to three different schedules:consecutively 3 days at sensitization(T_1),at challenge(T_2) or both of the two periods(T_3).Asthmatic rats were induced by intraperitioneal sensitization and challenged with nebulized ovalbumin(OVA).Lungs were embeded in paraffine and sliced,Hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staind tobuidine blue restained and TUNEL method after animals were executed,then the quantity and degranulation phenomenon of EOS and MC and the apoptosis of EOS in airway were observed.Results ① The number of inflammatory cells and EOS in the airway was significantly increased in asthmatic group but reduced in group T_1 and T_3(P
