Abstract:Objective: To study the effect of triptergium wilfordii polyglycosidium on the content of Th1 and Th2 in the treatment child patients of rcurrent nephrotic syndrome.Method: Patients were randomized into treatment group and health group.Sixty-one patients in treatment group were treated with triptergium wilfordii polyglycosidium 1 mg·kg-1·d-1 orally tid for 12 weeks.However,patients in health group was not treated with any drugs.Twelve weeks constituted one course of treatment and the content of IL-12,IL-2,TNF-α,IL-13,IL-6,IL-4 in peripheral blood was measured before and behind therapy.Result: In treatment group,the content of serum cytokines behind therapy was significantly lower than that before therapy,except for IL-12.Conclusion: Triptergium wilfordii polyglycosidium could reduce the cytokine level(except for IL-12) of Th1 and Th2,which could lead a therapeutic effect of in the child patients of RNS.
