AB The efficacy of Astragalus membranaceus (AM) oral liquor combined with
routine therapy and routine therapy alone on T-lymphocyte subsets of
peripheral blood in viral myocarditis patients have been studied. The
results showed that the T-lymphocyte subsets profile and OKT4/OKT8 ratio
of peripheral blood were significantly lower in viral myocarditis
patients than that in healthy control (P < 0.05, 0.01). Routine therapy
combined with AM could significantly enhance OKT3, OKT4 and OKT4/OKT8
ratio in the above-mentioned patients (P < 0.05, 0.01). The possible
pharmacodynamic mechanism of improved cell immunity in viral myocarditis
patients by combining routine therapy with AM was discussed.
