    摘要:

    背景:刺激免疫系统抵抗疾病以及在免疫缺陷性疾病状态下恢复免疫功能对于保持健康至关重要。目的:本研究分别在免疫功能正常和受损的动物模型中,研究Musanga cecropioides叶提取物和组分的免疫调节作用。方法:分别在免疫功能正常动物和环磷酰胺(80 mg·kg?1)诱导的免疫抑制动物中,测定不同剂量(200 mg·kg-1和400 mg·kg–1)提取物及其组分处理后,小鼠对绵羊红细胞(SRBC)抗原的体液免疫反应。还测定了活性最强组分在高剂量环磷酰胺(300 mg·kg?1)抑制免疫系统后,对白细胞生成的影响。本研究使用2.5 mg·kg?1左旋咪唑作为阳性对照药。结果:提取物呈剂量依赖性地刺激免疫功能正常动物,使其对SRBC抗原产生体液免疫应答;但这种刺激作用无显著性差异(P > 0.05)。在免疫抑制模型中,400mg·kg-1提取物引起抗体滴度显著升高(P < 0.05),产生67%的免疫恢复效果。乙酸乙酯组分(EAF)在免疫功能正常和免疫抑制动物中均为活性最高的组分,具有显著的抗体刺激作用(P < 0.05)。高剂量免疫抑制动物大幅变化的恢复时间曲线表明,EAF同样具有较高的恢复率。与对照药(2.5 mg·kg?1左旋咪唑)类似,200 mg·kg-1和400 mg·kg-1的EAF也显示出50%以上的白细胞生成,而免疫抑制对照组仅有33.83%的白细胞形成。结论:M. cecropioides增强正常动物的免疫功能,并快速恢复免疫功能受损动物的免疫状态。

    Abstract:

    Background: Stimulation of the immune system against disease and restoration of immune functions in immunodeficiency disease state are essential for maintaining good health. Objective: This study investigated the immunomodulatory effects of the leaf extract and fractions of Musanga cecropioides in immunocompetent and immunocompromised animal models. Methods: Humoral immune stimulatory effect of the extract and its fractions at 200 mg·kg?1 and 400 mg·kg?1 against sheep red blood cells (SRBCs) antigen was determined in both immunocompetent and cyclophosphamide (80 mg·kg?1) induced immunosuppressed animals. The effect of the most active fraction on leucopoiesis was also determined following high dose cyclophosphamide (300 mg·kg?1) suppression of the immune system. Levamisole at 2.5 mg·kg?1 was used as the reference drug throughout the study. Results: The extract dose dependently stimulated the humoral immune response to SRBC antigen in immunocompetent animals; however, its stimulatory effect was not significant (P > 0.05). In the immunosuppressed model, the extract at 400 mg·kg?1 evoked significant (P < 0.05) increase in antibody titer value with a corresponding 67% immune-restorative effect. The ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) maintained the most active fraction with significant (P < 0.05) antibody stimulatory effect in immunocompetent and immunosuppressed animals. Similarly, higher recovery rate was demonstrated by the EAF as shown by steep time recovery curve in high dose immunosuppressed animals. The EAF at 200 mg·kg?1 and 400 mg·kg?1 showed above 50% leucopoiesis just like the reference drug (2.5 mg·kg?1 levamisole), against 33.83% of leucopoiesis shown by the immune-suppressed control group. Conclusion: M. cecropioides boosted immune stimulation in immunocompetent animals and brought about fast rate of restoration of immune status in immunocompromised animals.
