Ginseng root saponins ( GRS ) was extracted from native ginseng.The dosage used was calculated according to the content of saponins.Immunosuppression in mice was induced in 15 days after implar- ting Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) subcutaneously in armpit, and in 5-11 days after implanting EAC into peritoneal cavity. GRS administered orally 50mg/kg- for 8 days did not prevent the atrophy of the thymus in tumor-bearing mice but rather aggravated it. GRS administered orally 50mg/kg for 14 days partially restored the suppressed phagocytosis of peritoneal macrophages in tumor-bearing mice. GRS administered orally 50mg/kg for 6 days somewhat restored the suppression of hemolysin formation in tumor-bearing mice 5 days after implanting EAC, But GRS given in the same route and dosage for 9 days, showed no effect on the suppression of hemolysin formation. GRS administered orally 50mg/kg for 10 days partially restored the suppression of delayed hypersensitive reaction in tumor-bearing mice.
