Identification of Immunomodulatory Signatures Induced by American Ginseng in Murine Immune Cells

Figure 3

Effects of American ginseng on proliferation of murine splenic cells ex vivo. After 24 h incubation with American ginseng, the cells were collected for MTT assays to determine the effect of American ginseng on the proliferation of murine splenic cells in different groups. Compared with the cell proliferation of saline-treated control subgroups, cells in American ginseng treated subgroups of NORM and DEX groups exhibited higher rate of cellular proliferation. But no significant difference was observed between CP and CX subgroups ( ). CX = COLD-fX; CP = crude powder of American ginseng root.
