Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the protective effects of Jiedu Huayu Decoction(JHD)on hepatic immune injury in mice induced by concanavalin A(Con A) and to explore its mechanism.Methods Sixty NIH mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:normal control group(group A),model group(group B),high-dose JHD group(group C),low-dose JHD group(group D) and bifendate group(group E).Except those in group A,mice in other groups were injected with Con A(at the dose of 20 mg/kg) via the tail vein at the first day of experiment.Group C and group D were orally administrated with JHD at the dose of 72.0 g/kg and 18.0 g/kg,respectively.Group E were orally administrated with bifendate at the dose of 150 mg/kg.All the drugs were given once daily for 5 consecutive days.Four hours after last medication,mice were injected with Con A once again at the same dose of 20 mg/kg.Serum aminotransferase(ALT) activity and interleukin-6(IL-6) concentration were detected at the 8th hour after Con A administration.Hepatic histopathological examination was performed,and the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) in hepatic tissue was detected by immunohistochemical method.Results ALT activity and IL-6 content in group C and group D were obviously lowered,hepatic histopathological changes were alleviated,and the expression of ICAM-1 in liver tissue was attenuated compared with those in group B(P
