Objective:
To observe the effect of Armillaria mellea polysaccharide on mice bone marrow cells damage caused by Cyclophosphamide.
Method:
Kunming purebred mice were used and stochastic divided into 5 groups: normal control group, positive control group (rhG-CSF 20 microg x kg(-1) x d(-1)), damage group of Cyclophosphamide (150 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)), the protective group with A. mellea polysaccharide, low dose (25.0 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) and high dose (50.0 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)). Positive control was s.c. rhGCSF 6 d and i.p. Cyclophosphamide 3 d. A. mellea polysaccharide was i.p. 8 d. and Cyclophosphamide i.p. 3 d. WBC, RBC, PLT, BMNC were counted in peripheral blood and bone marrow cells. The myelogram were analyzed in bone marrow.
Result:
The WBC, RBC, PLT, BMNC of protective group and positive control group were higher than damage group (P < 0.01) significantly high dose group increaser than low dose group in protective group the numbed of Promyelocytic and lobulation nuclear of marrow.
Conclusion:
A. mellea polysaccharide has preferably protective effect on damaging mice bone marrow cell caused by Cyclophosphamide.
