  • The herbal combination allergina has been used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases in South Korea. In this study. we investigated the immunosuppressive activities of allergina in more detail. Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. (omitted)

  • The potential allergenicity of the transgene products in genetically modified organisms (GMOs), has been an important issue. As a part of the risk assessment of GMOs, we investigated the physicochemical stability and the immunogenicity of food allergens to determine their allergenicity.(omitted)

  • We investigated the mechanism of immunomodulatory action of polysaccharide isolated from cell culture of Acanthopanax senticosus (ASP). ASP was found to increase directly proliferation and differentiation of B cells, and cytokine production of macrophages, but not proliferation and cytokine production of T cells.(omitted)

  • Many polysaccharides isolated from plants are considered to be biological response modifiers and have been shown to enhance various immune responses in vivo and in vitro. Here we demonstrate that a polysaccharide isolated from cell culture of Acanthopanax senticosus (AS) has a unique mode of immunostimulation with regard to its cell-type specificity. AS was found to markedly increase polyclonal IgM antibody production and the proliferation of B cells. and to activate iNOS transcription and NO production in macrophages. (omitted)
