Conclusions:
In summary, this study found that THL could either depress the SEB-stimulated higher PR of PBMC and T-cells from active RAU patients to a lower level or augment the GtfD- or S. mutans-stimulated lower PR of PBMC or T-cells from inactive RAU patients to a higher level. In contrast, AHCC only augmented the LPS-, TT- and S. mutans-stimulated PR of PBMC or T-cells from either active or inactive RAU patients. We conclude that THL has an immunomodulating effect on PBMC and T-cells from either active or inactive RAU patients and may be a potential immunoceutical agent for treatment of RAU or other diseases with altered cellular and humoral immunities.
