Radioprotective and immunomodulatory effects of Mesua ferrea (Linn.) from Western Ghats of India., in irradiated Swiss albino mice and splenic lymphocytes

The present study reports the efficacy of Mesua ferrea (Linn.) extract in mitigating radiation induced toxicity along with immunomodulatory property. Swiss albino mice, splenic lymphocytes and plasmid pBR322 DNA were used to evaluate the radioprotective effect by exposing them to 6Gy EBR or 4 Gy gam...
