Purpose: Modified Sijunzi decoction was used to intervene ITP model mice and observe its effect on platelets of ITP mice.The contents of IL-6,IL-17,IL-22,IL-10 and TGF-β in serum of each group of mice were detected to explore the improvement effect of modified Sijunzi Decoction on Inflammatory state of ITP mice.By detecting the ratio of Th17/Treg cells,this paper expounds the important role of Th17/Treg imbalance in the pathogenesis of ITP and the improvement effect of Modified Sijunzi Decoction on Th17/Treg balance.By detecting the expression level of RORγt and Foxp3 m RNA and the activation state of Jak/Stat3 signal pathway,it is clarified that Modified Decoction regulates the expression of RORγt,Foxp3 m RNA and protein by inhibiting the activation of Jak/Stat3 signal pathway,so as to realize the role of regulating Th17/Treg balance.Materials and methods: Platelet rich plasma was prepared from 40 mice and mixed with Freund’s complete adjuvant to prepare allergens,which were injected subcutaneously into the back,groin and paw of 10 guinea pigs.Three times of enhanced sensitization were performed on Day7,day14 and day28.The method was the same as the initial sensitization.The antigen solution was platelets suspended in Freund’s incomplete adjuvant.On day35 the whole blood of guinea pig artery was collected by abdominal aortic puncture,then the supernatant was collected and mixed to prepare GP-APS.On day29 purchased the second batch of 60 mice.After one week of adaptive feeding,on day36 randomly divided the mice into two groups: blank group(10 mice)and model group(50 mice).GP-APS was injected into the model mice by intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 100 u L/20 g body weight.The mice in the blank group were fed normally without treatment.On day43 observed the formation of subcutaneous ecchymosis in mice,detected the content of platelets and evaluated the model.After successful modeling,the model mice were randomly divided
