Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the effect of Guishen Capsule(Radix Angelicae Sinesis,Radix et Rhizoma Salivae Miltiorrhizae,etc) on mastoplasia and T-lymphocyte subsets of spleen in rats. METHODS: The model of mastoplasia was induced by benzoate estradiol intraperitoneal injection in SD female rats.The model rats were treated with low,middle and high dosages of Guishen Capsule,respectively.All rats were killed after 30 days,the tissue of second pair of mammary glands were observed.At the same time,the spleens were taken out for preparing single cells suspension.The ratio of CD~+_3,CD~+_4,CD~+_8,CD~+_4/CD~+_8 of splenic T-lymphocytes were determined by flow cytometry(FCM). RESULTS: Compared with normal group,the growth of weight was slow in model group,and its breast was swollen,and proliferation was obvious in mammary gland tissue,the ratio of CD~+_3,CD~+_4,CD~+_4/CD~+_8 reduced significantly in model group. Guishen Capsule could inhibit the breast swelling and mammary gland hyperplasia.It also could increase ratio CD~+_3,CD~+_4,CD~+_4/CD~+_8 of splenic T-lymphocytes remarkably. CONCLUSION: Guishen Capsule can inhibit mammary gland hyperplasia.It also has the function of immunologic enhancement and cellular immune regulation.
