Introduction: Lithium salts are known as effective psychotropic medicine for treatment bipolar disorder and may be used to treat alcoholism, schizoaffective disorders, and cluster headaches. The antioxidant activity and immunomodulatory effects of prospective lithium compounds have been investigated in this work. Materials and Methods: The antioxidant properties were studied by the voltammetry...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotential nonhematopoietic progenitor cells capable of differentiating into multiple lineages of the mesenchyme. MSCs have emerged as a promising therapeutic modality for tissue regeneration and repair. Further clinical interest has been raised by the observation that MSCs are immunoprivileged and, more importantly, display immunomodulatory capacities. Alt...

Background: Cancer is one of the critical, challenging problems in a clinical setting among non-infectious diseases and poses considerable burden to community for its highest fatalities associated morbidities. Immunotherapy has paid much attention curbing cancer protecting against advanced metastasis. Nutritional sources have been well known their anticancer properties centuries, although they ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are under development as an immunomodulatory therapy. The anticipated immunomodulatory effects of MSC are broad, from direct inhibition of lymphocyte proliferation, induction of regulatory T and B cells, to resetting the immune system via a hit-and-run principle. There are endless flavors of MSC. Differences between MSC are originating from donors variation, differe...

flavonoids are potentially immunomodulatory factors and it may be inferred that these phytochemicals contribute to immunomodulatory properties of the allium family. in the present study, we investigated the potential mechanism underlying the immunomodulatory effect of shallot and its ethyl acetate (ea) fraction as flavonoid-rich sources. ex vivo, effects of a hydroalcoholic extract of shallot, ...
