Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Interestingly, in acute EAE rats, pretreatment with KRGE significantly reduced the population of CD4+, CD4+/IFN-γ+, and CD4+/IL-17+ T cells in the spinal cord and lymph nodes, corresponding to the downregulation of mRNA expression of IFN-γ , IL-17, and IL-23 in the spinal cord.

These findings suggest that Red Ginseng inhibits allergic reactions to food by preventing reductions in the ratio of IFN-γ to IL-4 and in IL-12 production induced by dietary antigens in spleen cells, and/or increasing the expression of CD8 and IFN-γ in the small intestine.

In immunohistopathologic analysis, KRG , ATP, BYO, KRG + ATP, and KRG + BYO groups showed significantly reduced expression levels of IFN-γ at 1 h, 6 h, and 48 h (all p < 0.05).

In addition, ginseng reduces the expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines ( IFN-γ , TNF-α, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8) and chemokines produced by airway epithelial cells and macrophages, thus preventing weight loss.

The data show that intraperitoneal administration of KRG compromises MDSC function and induces T cell proliferation and the secretion of IL-2 and IFN-γ , while it does not exhibit direct cytotoxicity on tumor cells and reduced MDSC accumulation.
