THE EFFECTS OF EXOPOLYSACCHARIDES FROM APHANOTHECE HALOPHYTICA (EAH ) ON IMMUNO-LOGICAL FUNCTION OF MICE / 中国海洋药物

The effects of exopolysaccharides from Aphanothece halophytica(.EAH) on immunological function were studied by immunological techniques. The results showed that EAH could not only enhance the mitogenic response of mice's thymus cells, murine bone marrow cells proliferation,murine mixed lymphocyte reaction and the activity of NK cells in mice,but promote the interleukinl(IL-1)production and increase the activity of 1L-2 as well. The study suggests that EAH can improve the immunological function of mice.
