The effects of APS treatment on H9N2 infection was evaluated by an Mqq- [3（4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2, 3-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] assay and analysis of MFIC and cytokine mRNA expression. The effect on lymphocyte and serum antibody titers in vivo was also investigated. IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, LITAF, IL-12 and antibody titers to H9N2 AIV wet enhanced in the first week after APS treatment. The results indicated that APS treatment reduces H9N2 AIV replication and promotes early humoral immune responses in young chickens.This study investigated the humoral immunization of Astragalus polysaccharide （APS） against HgN2 avian influenza virus （H9N2 AIV） infection in chickens.
