Abstract:
【Objective】To observe the dynamic interference of cellular endotoxin specific receptors of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) mRNA and nuclear factor ?B p65(NF-?B p65) in rats with damp-heat syndrome of seasonal febrile disease by Ganlu Xiaodu Dan(GXD),and to explore the therapeutic mechanism of prescriptions with the actions of clearing heat and resolving dampness.【Methods】Wistar rats were randomized into 3 groups: A(normal control),B(models established by feeding of high-fat diet and colon bacillus under the high-temperature and high-humidity condition),and C(rat models treated with GXD).Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) analysis was used to detect the TLR4 mRNA level in hepatic macrophages and immunohistochemical method was used to detect the activation of NF-?B p65.【Results】The expression of TLR4 mRNA and NF-?B p65 was increased gradually in group B 6,12 and 24 hours after infection with colon bacillus,and the differences were significant,indicating that the expression of TLR4 mRNA and NF-?B p65 increased with the prolongation of disease course.In group C,TLR4 mRNA expression was decreased in different time points after infection,the difference of TLR4 mRNA expression 12 and 24 hours after infection was significant as compared with group B and group A(P
