Abstract: Objective:To study the effects of Radix Cynanchi Bungei polysaccharides (RCBPs) on transformation of T lymphocytes of rabbit phtohemagg luti and immune function in mice. Methods: Three doses of RCBPs (2,4 and 6 g/L) were respectively put into bottle with Pgytohemagg lutinin (PHA) and rabbit blood. The effect of RCBPs on immunity in vitro was studied by observing transformation of T lymphocytes; The dosages of RCBPs (150,100,50 mg/kg·d) were given to mice orally for seven days.The effects on immune function in the mice were investigated. Results: Three doses of RCBPs can significantly promote (p<0.01) the ability of rabbit T lymphocytes. The RCBPs can improve the Thymus and spleen indexes,the celiac macrophage ability of engulfing CRBC,the delayed type hypersensitivity ability and the macrophage-engulfing carbon granula ability. Conclusion: The RCBPs has certain activity of immune regulation.
