Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

The formulation of medicinal herbal tea Echinosol was developed. Immunotropic properties of aqueous-alcohol extract Echinosol were studied. This extract (300 mg/kg) had a stimulatory effect on the following parameters: formation of T cell precursors and production of T cell effectors; migration of lymphocytes, monocytes and neutrophils into the blood; digestive activity of neutrophils; migration of monocytes and lymphocytes into the peritoneal exudate; expression of C3b receptors on macrophages; phagocytic capacity of cells due to the existence of C3b receptors; number of antibody-producing cells in the spleen; and synthesis of immunoglobulins.
