Abstract:
Objective To explore the infiltration and apoptosis of eosinophilia(EOS)and the influence of death receptor(Fas) and B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) expression after Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction on asthma rats.Methods40 healthy rats of Holland were selected as the research subjects,they were divided into four groups: control group,asthma model group, dexamethasone group,Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction group with 10 rats in each group.Rat asthma model was prepared by repeated stimulation of egg protein,the symptoms of asthma in each group were evaluated;the number of EOS infiltration in lung tissue was detected by staining method;EOS apoptosis was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method;Blot Western was used to detect the expression of Fas and Bcl-2 protein;the flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of EOS in rat.ResultsCompared with the rats in the model group, dexamethasone group, Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction group rats asthma symptoms were significantly reduced, scores were significantly lower (P< 0.05),there was no significant difference between Dexamethasone group and sheganmahuang Decoction group.In the asthma model group,the number of EOS infiltration and EOS% in venous blood and lung tissue were significantly higher than those in control group,EOS apoptosis rate was significantly lower than that of the control group (P< 0.05).In Dexamethasone group,Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction group infiltration number of EOS and EOS% were significantly lower than that of model group but higher than the control group, the apoptosis rate of EOS protein was significantly higher than the model group and the control group (P< 0.05),there was no significant difference between Dexamethasone group and sheganmahuang Decoction group.The expression of Fas in dexamethasone group,Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction group was significantly higher than the control group and model group (P< 0.05),Bcl-2 protein was significantly lower than the control group and model group (P< 0.05),there was no significant difference between Dexamethasone group and sheganmahuang Decoction group.Cell flow cytometry showed that the control group had no cell apoptosis,a large number of apoptotic cells were appeared after Belamcanda and Ephedra Decoction treat with.ConclusionBelamcanda and Ephedra decoction can induce apoptosis of EOS expression,it may be associated with the upregulation of Fas, downregulation of Bcl-2 expression.
