Effect of Rhodiola rosea extract on thymus T-lymphocyte sub-sets 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. Thymus T-lymphocyte sub-sets were measured using flow cytometry. Statistical quantification of CD3⁺, CD4⁺, CD8⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in rats. Values are expressed as the mean ± standard error of the mean. ^*P<0.05, ^**P<0.01 vs. sham operation group and normal control group; ^#P<0.05, P<0.01 vs. control group.
