Restoration of Electric Footshock-Induced Immunosuppression in Mice by <em>Gynostemma pentaphyllum </em>Components

Restoration of Electric Footshock-Induced Immunosuppression in Mice by <em>Gynostemma pentaphyllum </em>Components

The immunomodulatory effects of the ethanol extract of <em>Gynostemma pentaphyllum </em>(GP-EX) were examined in electric footshock (EFS)-stressed mice. The mice were orally administered various doses of GP-EX for 7 days before exposure to EFS (duration: 3 min, interval:...
