Abstract:
Objective:To observe expression of NK cells in peripheral blood in the patients of lung-Qi deficiency and lung-Yin deficiency. Methods:CD_(16)/CD_(56) were determined by flow cytometry in 58 cases of lung-Qi deficiency,12 cases of lung-Yin deficiency and 20 cases of healthy persons.Results:Activities of NK cells in both the patient of lung-Qi deficiency and the patient of lung-Yin deficiency decreased;There were significant differences in activities of NK cells among the various groups of lung-Qi deficiency syndrome.Conclusion:The immunological function in the patient of lung-Qi deficiency syndrome developed gradually to immunodepression of different degrees from active state at early stage,and then developed to lung-Yin deficiency syndrome,and finally leading to maladjustment of hemeostasis of immunological system.
