Description

TNF - alpha, TGF , IL-5 were determined in sixty male albino rats divided into 6 groups ; control and 5 irradiated with 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 Gy double dose of -radiation for two successive weeks, once weekly. The all groups except control, 0.5 and 1 Gy groups were treated with ambrosin extract (natural product) with 20 mg /kg body weight 8 times once weekly. All animals were sacrificed after two weeks of the last dose of ambrosin. The results revealed that all immuno response TNF- alpha and TGF with Il-5 were reveled a highly amelioration after treated by ambrosin in groups of 1.5, 2 and 2.5 Gy in comparison with untreated groups
