Abstract

The object of this study was to find out the immunomodulatory effects of Ginger Aqueous extracts, as compared with that of ${\beta}$-glucan well-known an immune modulator, on the cyclophosphamide (CPA) induced immunosuppress mice. To induce immunosuppress, 150 and 110 mg/kg of CPA were dissolved in saline and injected intraperitoneally at 3 or 1 day before start of test article administration, respectively. ${\beta}$-glucan or gingers (125, 250, 500 mg/kg) were dosed, 4 times at 12-hr intervals starting 24hrs after last CPA-treatment. Distilled water was used as a vehicle and each groups were used 10 mice. As results of twice intraperitoneal CPA treatment, decreases in the body weight and gain, weight of thymus, spleen. However these CPA-induced immunosuppress changes were inhibited by treatment of three different dosages of ginger or ${\beta}$-glucan as compared with CPA control. Similar favorable inhibitory activities on weight and histopathological change of spleen and thymus induced CPA treatment were detected between ${\beta}$-glucan and ginger 250 mg/kg treated groups.
