“Dual color flow cytometric analysis revealed that (+)-catechin reversed the reduction of the population of leukocytes (CD11b+ monocytes, Gr-1+ granulocytes and CD3+ T and CD45RA+ B lymphocytes) in whole blood, spleen and bone marrow caused by 5-FU.”
“These findings suggest that (+)-catechin selectively enhances the recovery of the population of granulocytes reduced by 5-FU in mice.”
