Preliminary study on chinese drug- induced apoptosis of thyrocytes in graves’ disease
摘要
Objective: To investigate the cellular and molecular mechanisms of some Chinese drugs on apoptosis of thyrocytes in Graves’ disease.Methods: Two to ten weeks before and after using Chinese drugs on 13 Graves’ disease patients with anti-thyroid drugs
patients’ thyroid tissue was aspired with percutaneous puncturing needle. The effects of some Chinese drugs on thyrocytes was studied by applying cell morphology (stained with nuclear fast red
NFR)
flow cytometry (stained with propidium iodide
PI)
and terminal uridine deoxynucleotidyl end-labelling (TUNEL) technique (alkaline phosphatase and CBIP/NBT
NFR). The size of thyroid gland was measured by color Doppler ultrasonography.Results: After Chinese drug treatment
compared with single anti-thyroid drug group
the size of thyroid was significantly reduced (P<0.01). The apoptosis of thyrocytes can be observed by cell morphology such as chromatin condensation and nuclear fragmentation. The apoptosis rate is 18.66% ±20.01% (n=13) in anti-thyroid drugs plus Chinese drugs group
2.11% ±1.78% (n= 13) in single anti-thyroid drug group (P<0. 01). For up to 2–10 weeks
more TUNEL-positive cells were found after treatment with Chinese drugs than those treated with anti-thyroid drug alone.Conclusion: Some Chinese drugs when used in combination with anti-thyroid drugs in treating Graves’ disease could induce apoptosis of thyrocytes.
