Protective effects of ginger extract on immune functin of X-ray irradiated mice

  Objective   To study protective effects of ginger extract on immune function of X-ray irradiated mice.

  Methods   Mice were divided into 5 groups: treat, control and experimental groupsGinger extract of 9.3, 4.7, 2.3 ml/(kg°bw).Irradiation dose of X-ray was 2.0 Gy each time, interval 24 h, sum to two times.The mice were killed on the 48 h after the last time irradiation.The indexs of spleen, function of lymphocyte translation, IgG were observed.

  Results   Middle-, lowdose ginger extract groups had protective effect obviously on the damage of lymphocyte activity of X-ary irradiatiion.

  Conclusion   Ginger extract have protective effects on immume function of irradiated mice.
