Mice pre-exposed to cisplatin increased their production of nitric oxide (NO) when treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Peritoneal macrophages, isolated from mice 11 days after cisplatin treatment and cultured with LPS plus IFN-gamma, increased NO production, whereas the macrophages isolated 2 days after cisplatin treatment decreased it. In both cases, NO was not produced without immunostimul...

Immunomodulators are substances that alter immune system via dynamic regulation of messenger molecules. It can be divided into immunostimulant and immunosuppressant. It can help to increase immunity of people with a low immune system, and also can help to normalize an overactive immune system. Aim of this study is to investigate the effects of in vitro exposure to low and high doses of several ...

Mice pee-exposed to cisplatin increased their production of nitric oxide (NO) when treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Peritoneal macrophages, isolated from mice 11 days after Cisplatin treatment and cultured with LPS plus WN-y, increased NO production, whereas the macrophages Lsolated 2 days after cisplatin treatment decreased it. In both cases, NO was not pro duced without immunostimulant(...

Sustainable fish farming activities are a hope for all cultivators. Suitable and stable environmental conditions important factors the sustainability of to grow, reproduce, avoid stress disease. Providing balanced diet is one that must be considered. Diets equipped with additives have been in great demand by researchers field aquaculture, which chitosan. Chitosan (β-(1-4)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine...

Indigofera tinctoria and Scoparia dulcis are being widely used in Indian folk medicine for the treatment of various disorders. Environmental noise pollution is thought to be an important factor for many health problems and it causes immune abnormalities. In the present study immune-regulating potential of I. tinctoria and S. dulcis aqueous extracts on innate and adaptive immune system of wistar...

A bacterial strain isolated from intestines of hybrid catfish (Clarias gariepinus Male × Clarias macrocephalus Female) exhibited an in vitro inhibitory effect on a fish pathogen, Aeromonas hydrophila TISTR 1321. By using the 16S rDNA sequence analysis, it was identified as Lactobacillus plantarum C014. To examine whether L. plantarum C014 had potential for use as an immunostimulant and biocontr...

Amphypterygium adstringens is a Mexican tree known as cuachalalate whose bark is habitually used for the treatment of fresh wounds, gastric ulcers, gastrointestinal cancer and various inflammatory conditions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the immunostimulant effect of the aqueous extract of A. adstringens on immune cellular response in immunosuppressed mice. An aqueous extract from the ...

BACKGROUND Several immunostimulants presume to prevent respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in children, but their efficacy is controversial. OBJECTIVES To compile the findings of the randomized, placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) on the prevention of acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in children using immunostimulants, and to perform a meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES Medline, EMBASE data...

Objective: Pegagan embun (Hydrocotyle sibthorpioides Lam.) is one of the herbs used in ethnomedicines as an immunostimulant during COVID-19 pandemic. This present study aims to discover potential toxicity effect pegagan extract through sub-acute administration on SGPT and SGOT levels Wistar white male rats.
 Methods: Thirty-six test animals were divided into four groups: control group was ...

In the present investigation found immunostimulant potential plants being an alternative for preventing fish diseases. Six groups of experimental fishes (E. suratensis) were immunized with 0.2ml (4ppm) of five different extracts of Solanum nigrum through intra-peritoneal injection and challenged with heat killed Aphanomyces invadans. Blood collected from immunized and normal fish were analyzed ...
