Immunoprotection by botanical drugs in cancer chemotherapy.
TLDR
Protection towards CP-induced myelo- and immunoprotection as evident by significant increase in white cell counts and hemagglutinating and hemolytic antibody titers will be important in development of supportive treatment with cancer chemotherapy.About:
