Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : This experimental study was designed to investigate the effects of Acanthopanax, sessiliflorus SEEM extracts following gamma-ray irradiation on immuno-stimulating and anti-tumor activity in terms of proliferation of tumor cells, thymocytes, splenocytes, and NO production from peritoneal macrophages in mice.
Methods: 10AS and 100 AS were the bark powders of Acanthopanax sessiliflorus S_{EEM} stems which were exposed in 10 kGy or 100 kGy of electron beam respectively.
Results : Treatment with either 10AS or 100AS increased proliferation rates of thymocytes and splenocytes significantly, and treatment with l0AS also decreased proliferation rates of tumor cells significantly. Treatment with either l0AS or l00AS promoted NO production from peritoneal macrophages significantly.
Conclusion : These results suggested that AS has direct inhibition effect of tumor growth and immuno-stimulating activity. In conclusion, we demonstrate that AS could be used to treat cancer patient as complementary or alternative medicine to typical anti-cancer medication.
