Abstract

It is found that a short-term rotation stress triggers the production of lymphocyte-activating factors by peritoneal macrophages of (CBA×C57BI/6), F1 mice and raises blood levels of interleukin-1α and corticosterone. Botanical preparations administered to unstressed animals induce no secretion of lymphocyte-activating factors by macrophages and do not change blood levels of interleukin-1α and corticosterone. The herbals limit the stress-induced production of lymphocyte-activating factors by peritoneal macrophages.
