[Immunotropic effect of a tincture of the tissue culture biomass of ginseng cells and of an Eleutherococcus extract in mice]. / Immunotropnoe vliianie nastoiki iz biomassy kul'tury tkani kletok zhen'shenia i ékstrakta éleuterokokka u myshei.

The tincture from biomass of ginseng tissue culture was shown to exert the immunomodulatory effect on humoral immunity and to increase the thymus and spleen weight. It is of interest to note that the biomass preparation did not change the immunity of intact animals but exerted a strong immunomodulatory action on mice previously treated with cyclophosphane. Similar results have been obtained also for another adaptogen--Eleutherococcus.
