Effect of Yanghe Decoction(阳和汤) on Helper T Cell Subsets in Autoimmune Thyroiditis Model Rats
Objective To observe the effect of Yanghe Decoction( 阳和汤) on the balance shift of helper T cells( Th cell) subsets in rats with autoimmune thyroiditis. Methods Thirty rats were randomly divided into the normal group
the model group and Yanghe Decoction group
with 10 rats in each group. The model group and Yanghe Decoction group were treated with thyroglobulin plus drinking water to establish autoimmune thyroiditis rats model. After the modeling
the Yanghe Decoction group was given intragastric administration of Yanghe Decoction formula granules( concentration of drug 0. 5 g/ml) 1 ml/100 g. The model group and the normal group were intragastrically administrated with equal volume of saline
once a day
and each group was continuously administered intragastrically for 10 weeks. Serum thyroid peroxidase antibody( TPOAb)
thyroglobulin antibody( Tg Ab) and thyroid function [including thyroid stimulating hormone( TSH)
serum free triiodothyronine( FT3)
serum free thyroid Levels of thymidine( FT4) ]were detected; T lymphocytes were extracted from the spleen and the expression of Th1
Th2
Th17 and regulatory T cells( Treg) was measured by flow cytometry
and the ratio of Th cell subsets was calculated. Results Compared with the normal group
the rats in the model group and Yanghe Decoction group had significantly lower TSH
and serum FT3
FT4
TPOAb
and Tg Ab were significantly higher( P < 0. 01). Compared with the model group
the FT4
TPOAb and Tg Ab in the Yanghe Decoction group were significantly lower( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01).Compared with the normal group
Th1 cells in the model group accounted for the percentage of total lymphocytes
Th1/Th2
Th17 as a percentage of total lymphocytes
Th17/Treg increased
and Th2 cells as a percentage of total lymphocytes decreased( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Compared with the model group
Th1/Th2
Th17 in the Yanghe Decoction group accounted for the percentage of total lymphocytes and Th17/Treg decreased
but still higher than the normal group( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). There was no significant difference in total lymphocyte percentage between the Treg of each group( P > 0. 05). Conclusion Yanghe Decoction can reduce autoantibody titers of thyroid gland in rats with autoimmune thyroiditis
and reduce Th17 cell percentage and Th1/Th2
Th17/Treg in spleen of rats
and improve the thyroid autoimmune reaction in rats.
