Cells belonging to the innate immune system, known as natural killer (NK) cells, act as the first line of defense against developing neoplasms. We have previously shown in a leukemia-induced tumor model (mouse) that a proprietary extract (CVT-E002),

This study assessed the influences of CVT-E002, a proprietary extract of North American ginseng, Panax quinquefolius (Afexa Life Sciences, Inc., Edmonton, AB, Canada), in vivo, on murine hemopoietic and immune cells when administered as a dietary add

Melatonin, a neurohormone produced mainly by the pineal gland, is a modulator of haemopoiesis and of immune cell production and function, both in vivo and in vitro. Physiologically, melatonin is associated with T-helper 1 (Th1) cytokines, and its adm

The majority of B lymphocytes, virgin T lymphocytes and a subpopulation of memory T cells express the addressin, L-selectin. Natural killer (NK) cells in rodents and humans also express L-selectin. We have shown that a similar proportion (40%) of NK

Current evidence indicates an immunostimulating role for complex carbohydrates, i.e., polysaccharides, from several plant sources. In the present work, we determined the specific in vivo effects, with time of administration, of one such compound, a n

The pineal secretory product, melatonin, exerts a variety of effects on the immune system. Administration of melatonin stimulates cell-mediated immunity, particularly by inhibiting apoptosis among T lymphocytes in the thymus and inducing production o

Melatonin (MLT), a biogenic indoleamine and neuromodulator produced by the pineal gland, is known to activate T helper cells by means of direct binding to melatonin receptors on both Th1 and Th2 cells. The present in vivo study aimed to investigate t

In humans, considerable circumstantial evidence exists that indicates soluble root extracts of the American coneflower, genus Echinacea, may act to ameliorate virus-mediated afflictions, such as the common cold, influenza, and even AIDS and virus-bas
