Effect of Rhodiola rosea extract on the thymus T-lymphocyte count in septic mice. Groups of mice were treated with Rhodiola rosea extract and 8 h later challenged by caecal ligation and puncture for 24 h. The thymus T-lymphocyte count was measured using flow cytometry. Representative flow cytometry dot plots showing the count of thymus T lymphocytes in mice. (A) Normal control group; (B) sham-operated group; (C) control group; (D) treatment group. The populations in the red windows are the count of thymus T lymphocytes.
