in this study, we investigate the immunostimulatory effects of alcoholic extract of the coffee seed on cell-mediated immune response andcyclophosphamide-induced (cp) immunosuppressed mice. the assessment of cellular immune function was carried out by the measurement of delayed-type hypersensitivity (dth) response. according to the literature survey, cyclophosphamide has only suppressing effect ...

objective: the immunomodulatory effect of geranial, geranial acetate, gingerol, and eugenol essential oils were evaluated by studying humoral and cell-mediated immune responses. materials and method: the essential oils were evaluated for immunomodulatory activity in in vivo studies, using rats as the animal model. the essential oils were tested for hypersensitivity and hemagglutination reaction...

The sensitivity of HD antibody in cancer diagnosis/prognosis could be improved by detection of Immune Complex (IC) dissociated antibody. Combined evaluation of native HD and Immune Complex (IC) dissociated antibody was carried out. Presence and titre of these antibodies in cancer patients was investigated in serum samples obtained from 420 patients with various types of tumors. Results were com...

Avian influenza (AI) H9N2 has been reported from poultry in India. A seroepidemiological study was undertaken among poultry workers to understand the prevalence of antibodies against AI H9N2 in Pune, Maharashtra, India. A total of 338 poultry workers were sampled. Serum samples were tested for presence of antibodies against AI H9N2 virus by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) and microneutralizati...

The essential oils were tested for hypersensitivity and hemagglutination reaction...

BACKGROUND Before pandemic (H1N1) 2009, less than 10% of serum samples collected from all age groups in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada, showed seroprotection against the pandemic (H1N1) 2009 virus, except those from very elderly people. We reassessed this profile of seroprotection by age in the same region six months after the fall 2009 pandemic and vaccination campaign. METHO...

It was demonstrated that an extract from the pharmacopoeial raw material bilberry fruit (Fructus Myrtilli) co-administered with selected antibiotics: cefuroxime, cefoperazone and doxycycline, positively affects the survival of mouse thymocytes in cultures with hydrocortisone (cytotoxicity test), increases the count of splenocytes forming spontaneous rosettes (E-rosette test) and increases the a...

Background: Septilin (Spt) is an ayurvedic drug formulation from Himalaya Drug Company and is well-known for its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. Interest in the use of medicinal plants and herbal medicine as immunomodulators has currently been the subject of scientific investigation worldwide. Cyclophosphamide (CP) and Cisplatin (Csp) are widely used chemothera...
