Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the effect of Astragalus mongholicus injection(AM) on the secretion and mRNA expression of transforming growth factor((TGF-?1)) and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) in cultured human peritoneal mesothelial cells((HPMC).) Methods: HPMC got from patients underwent surgical operation were cultured in vitro.At first,cells from the third passage were incubated with RPMI1640 culture medium containing 0.1% FBS for 24 hours.Then,they were divided into control group,PDS group,AM group 1,AM group 2 and AM group 3 for testing.Each group was supplemented with equal volum of RPMI1640 culture medium containing 20% FBS.After 24 hour incubating,mitochondrial dehydrogenases activity(MTT assay),the levels of TGF-?1 and bFGF in supernatant of the cell culture and the mRNA expression of TGF-?1 and bFGF were detected.Results: Significant decrease of mitochondrial dehydrogenase activities were observed in PDS group as compared with those in control group and AM groups(P0.05).The levels of TGF-?1 and bFGF in supernatant of the cell culture were significantly lower in control group than those in PDS group.Marked lower levels of TGF-?1 and bFGF were found in AM group 1,AM group 2 and AM group 3 as compared with those in PDS group(P0.05).The mRNA expressions of TGF-?1 and bFGF in PDS group increased significantly as compared with those in control group.And significant mRNA expressions of TGF-?1 and bFGF were found in PDS group when compared with those in AM groups(P
