Effect of a novel ashwagandha-based herbomineral formulation on pro-inflammatory cytokines expression in mouse splenocyte cells: A potential immunomodulator
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the immunomodulatory effect of TEBEH in LPS-induced cytokines expression levels in mouse splenocytes in vitro, and found that TEBEh significantly inhibited the expressions of TNF-α, IL-1β, MIP-1α, and IFN-γ.

TL;DR: Body weight variation, and hematological, humoral and cell mediated immune response related parameters were studied in which coumarinolignoids at a dose of 10 mg/kg body weight enhanced the body immune function by significantly increasing the white blood cell count, hemagglutination antibody titer responses, and reducing delayed type hypersensitivity response towards rabbit red blood cells.

Preliminary immunomodulatory activities of aqueous extract of Morus alba Linn.
TL;DR: It is inferred that Morus alba aqueous extract stimulates the innate or non- specific immune system in a dose dependant manner and does not stimulate the adaptiveimmune system in mediating immunomodulatory property.

A comparative pharmacological investigation of Ashwagandha and Ginseng.
TL;DR: The aqueous suspensions of roots of an Indian drug Ashwagandha and the Korean drug Ginseng were tested comparatively for 2 pharmacological activities, namely the anti-stress activity by the 'mice swimming endurance test' and anabolic activity by noting gain in body weights and levator ani muscle in rats.
