Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect of marine algal polysaccharide on immune function of irradiated mice.
Methods The spontaneous incorporation of 3H-TdR into thymocytes, proliferation response of splenocytes to ConA and LPS and mixed lymphocyte reaction was examined.
Results Marine algal polysaccharide could enhance spontaneous incorporation of 3H-TdR into thymocytes, accelerate the proliferation of T and B lymphocytes and increase the abilities of mixed lymphocyte reaction.
Conclusion Marine algal polysaccharide had significant effect on protecting immune function from irradiation injuries.
