The Mushroom Agaricus blazei Murill Elicits Medicinal Effects on Tumor, Infection, Allergy, and Inflammation through Its Modulation of Innate Immunity and Amelioration of Th1/Th2 Imbalance and Inflammation

Figure 3

Female NIH/Ola mice were given either 200 μl of the AndoSan AbM-based extract or PBS intragastrically on day 1 and 10 μg of ovalbumin s.c. on day 0 and again on day 20, before exsanguination for serum on day 26. IgE antiovalbumin levels were lower in the AbM- than in the PBS-treated groups ( 𝑃 = 0 . 0 0 2 ). Similar results were found if AbM extract or PBS was given 3 weeks after the allergen immunization (not shown, please see [16]). IgG2a antiovalbumin levels (Th1 response) tended to show the opposite result (not shown). From [16], previously published by a BMC journal, which allows reuse.
