1.The regulatory effect of Ginsenside on NK cell activity via pituitary-adrenal axis in operative stress
Chinese Journal of Immunology 1985;0(01):-
It was reported that immuno-regulatory mechanism of Ginsenoside on NK cell activity through pituitary-adrenal axis in operation stressed mice. Ginsenoside could modulate NK cell activity in mice against stress. On the other hand the level of plasma ACTH, corticosterone and the splenocyte ACTHR increased in stressed mice, as we know that ACTH, corticosterone could inhibite immunocyte function. However, Ginsenoside decreased the level of ACTH and corticosterone. This result suggests that the regulation effect of Ginsenoside on NK cell activity may be related to the action of pi tui taryadrenal axis under stress conditions.

Chinese Journal of Immunology 1986;0(04):-
The porcine CRF partly purified according to Vale's method used an immunogen to prepare the rabbit anti-CRF serum. The specific CRF radioimmunoassay was developed with the antiserum and ~(125)I-h-CRF. The antiserum revealed 20% tracer binding at 1: 1600 working dilution and was no cross-reactivity with relative peptides in RIA. The lower limit of detection of standard CRF was 25-50pg/ml in RIA. The concentration of CRF in plasma and brain tissue was measured by this method. The results are consistent with that of Sapolsky et al. Therefore the CRF RIA can be used for CRF detection in plasma and tissue extracts.
