    Objective To investigate the impacts of wogonin (WG) on Th17/Treg cell balance in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) rats. Methods A total of 10 rats were randomly selected as the control group. The remaining rats were injected with concanavalin A (ConA, 12.5 mg/kg) solution via tail vein to construct AIH model rat, which were randomly divided into AIH group, L-WG group (10 mg/kg), M-WG group (20 mg/kg), H-WG group (30 mg/kg), H-WG+VPA group (30 mg/kg WG+300 mg/kg Notch signal pathway activator VPA), 10 rats in each group and administered once a day for 10 days. Serum inflammatory factors and liver function indexes were detected by ELISA; HE staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of liver tissue; the level of spleen Th17/Treg cells was detected by flow cytometry; Western blot was used to detect the expression of spleen retinoid acid related orphan receptor γ t (RORγt), fork head box protein P3 (Foxp3) and liver Notch signal pathway proteins. Results The liver tissue structure of control group was no
