[Effect of AMI on proliferative cycle phase of bone marrow cells in mice].

By using culture of bone marrow cells in vitro and flowcytometry, effect of Astragalus membranaceus injection (AMI) on proliferative cycle phase of bone marrow cells in normal and anemic mice was studied. AMI 40 micrograms/ml (concentration in culture system) can promote normal murine bone marrow cells (BMC) entering proliferative cycle phase (S + M/G2 phase), so do AMI 40 micrograms/ml and AMI 400 micrograms/ml to anemic murine BMC. The results suggested AMI maybe enhance hematopoietic function in mice.
