| preliminary observations on the effects of the chinese medicinal herbs astragalus membranaceus and ligustrum lucidum on lymphocyte blastogenic responses. | the biological effects of extracts of two chinese medicinal herbs, astragalus membranaceus and ligustrum lucidum, on in vitro lymphocyte blastogenesis were assessed. aqueous extracts augmented the spontaneous [3h]thymidine incorporation in the mononuclear cells (mnc) of 14 normal subjects from 273.0 to 609.3 counts per minute (cpm) and 252.9 to 656.9 cpm for the two herbs, respectively. the stimulation indices were 2.4 and 3.1, respectively (p less than 0.001). they also augmented the proliferat ... | 1983 | 6644339 |
| chinese medicinal herbs inhibit growth of murine renal cell carcinoma. | tumors are known to produce factors suppressing immune functions. we previously showed that a murine renal cell carcinoma (renca) suppressed macrophage function in vitro and that this suppression was abolished by co-incubation with extracts of two chinese medicinal herbs. we now report that these phytochemicals are capable of inhibiting growth of renca in vivo. balb/c mice were transplanted intraperitoneally (ip) with 1-2 x 10(5) renca cells. one day after tumor transplant, mice were randomized ... | 1994 | 7812364 |
