Effect of recombinant murine interleukin 12 on hematopoietic systems in mice of acute radiation sickness

Objective To study the effect of recombinant murine interleukin 12(rmIL-12) on the hematopoietic systems in mice of acute radiation sickness. Methods Forty-two BALB/C mice were given 6.0Gy ⁶⁰Co γ rays total body irradiation and randomly assigned into irradiation control group, 5 and 20 μg/kg rmIL-12 treatment groups. Solvent and 5, 20 μg/kg of rmIL-12 were administrated intraperitoneally 1 h following irradiation, and was administrated every 3 days after irradiation. The general conditions of mice were observed twice a day, the changes in body weight, peripheral blood cell counts were examined every three days, histopathological sections of femur were prepared to observe the histomorphological changes, and bone marrow cells were collected to perform colony cultivation on day 14 and 28 after irradiation. Results The general conditions of mice in rmIL-12 treatment group were better than those of irradiation control group. Compared with the irradiation control group, rmIL-12 5, 20 μg/kg treatment significantly promoted platelet recovery, resulting in less profound nadirs(15.9% vs 8.1%, 15.1% vs 8.1%, P﹤0.05) and rapid recovery to normal levels（11 days vs 14 days）. Semi-solid bone marrow cell culture also demonstrated that rmIL-12 could stimulate bone marrow cells to form more CFU-GEMM than those of the irradiation group in vitro. Conclusion RmIL-12 can significantly accelerate the recovery of hematopoietic function in acute radiation sickness mice.
