EFFECTS OF TOTAL GLUCOSIDES OF PAEONY ON INTER-LEUKI'N 2 PRODUCTION / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Effects of total glucosides of paeony ( TGP) on interleukin2 ( IL-2 ) production were studied with lL-2-dependent marine splenic lymohocytes. The results showed that IL-2 production by splenocytes was enhanced with low concentration of TGP (0.5-12.5 mg/L) , and diminished over the rang of 12.5-62.5mg/L. The concentration-effect curve seems to be bell-shaped. The data suggested that TGP hap two-sided regulatory effects on IL 2 production by splenocytes.
