The extract from seeds of Aeginetia indica L. (AIL), a parasitic plant, induces potent antitumor immunity against Meth A fibrosarcomas in BALB/c mice. AIL also possesses a thymocyte co-stimulatory effect in vitro with suboptimal dose of Con A, a B cell mitogenic effect, and stimulates AIL-primed
We have isolated a 55 kDa protein from the seed extract of Aeginetia indica L. (AIL), a parasitic plant, by affinity chromatography on an N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated Sepharose High Performance column bound with F3, a monoclonal antibody that neutralizes the cytokine-inducing and anti-tumor effect
A 55-kDa protein named AILb-A, isolated from the seed extract of Aeginetia indica L., a parasitic plant, induces a Th1-type T-cell response and elicits a marked antitumor effect in tumor-bearing mice. In the present study, we examined the role of Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which have been
The antitumor activity of an extract of seeds from Aeginetia indica L., a parasitic plant, was investigated. BALB/c mice, inoculated i.p. 1 x 10(5) syngeneic Meth A tumor cells, were administered 2.5 mg/kg A. indica extract i.p. every 2 days from day 0. The untreated mice died of an ascitic form of
We previously reported that the extract of seeds from Aeginetia Indica L (AIL), a parasitic plant, induces potent antitumor immunity in tumor-bearing mice and that CD4+ T cells appear to be the main contributors in the induction of antitumor resistance. The present study was set up to investigate
We have isolated 55 kDa protein from the seed extract of Aeginetia indica L. (AIL), a parasitic plant, by an affinity chromatography on N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-activated Sepharose High Performance column bound F3 monoclonal antibody which neutralizes cytokine-inducing and antitumor effect of AIL.
