Abstract: | The effects of Trichilia glabra (Meliaceae) aqueous leaf extract on mouse lymphocytes were studied. The in vitro proliferation of T and B lymphocytes was completely impaired. Besides, the extract significantly diminished both antibody and delayed hypersensitivity responses in treated mice. These results suggest that the extract exerts a marked immunomodulatory effect on the murine immune system. |
