Experimental immunology Influence of polysaccharide fraction C isolated from Caltha palustris L. on T and B lymphocyte subsets in mice

Abstract

Extracts from a diverse range of plants have been shown to possess immunomodulatory properties. Caltha palustris L. (Ranunculaceae) is a plant widely known and distributed in

Effect of Peptides from Alaska Pollock on Intestinal Mucosal Immunity Function and Purification of Active Fragments

“…The thymus index and spleen index could reflect the capacity of immunity [29]. As shown in Figure 1A,B, the spleen index and thymus index of the Cy group were significantly lower than those in NC group ( p < 0.01), which suggested that Cy had an effect on the weight reduction of immune organs.…”

Experimental immunology Modulation of murine macrophages phagocytic activity by polysaccharide extract from Chenopodium bonus-henricus

“…The pectic polysacchariderich complex from Valeriana and Opilia celtidifola also stimulated the immune function of bone marrow cells and macrophage activity [15,17]. Polysaccharides fraction isolated from Ginkgo biloba folium has a good immunomodulatory activity rate [18], while fraction C from Caltha palustris extract can change the percentage and absolute number of T cell subsets in thymus, and T and B lymphocytes in the spleen and mesenteric lymph nodes [19].…”
