Leemol Davis,Girija Kuttan +1 more
TL;DR: It is indicated that Withania somnifera could reduce the cyclophosphamide induced toxicity and its usefulness in cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Withania somnifera root extract prevents DMBA-induced squamous cell carcinoma of skin in Swiss albino mice.
TL;DR: It can be inferred that WSRE possesses potential chemopreventive activity in this experimental model of cancer, and may be linked to the antioxidant/free radical-scavenging constituents of the extract.

Withania somnifera and Bauhinia purpurea in the regulation of circulating thyroid hormone concentrations in female mice.
Sunanda Panda,Anand Kar +1 more
TL;DR: It appears that Withania somnifera root extract and Bauhinia purpurea bark extract are capable of stimulating thyroid function in female mice.
Journal Article
Immunomodulatory effect of Moringa oleifera Lam. extract on cyclophosphamide induced toxicity in mice.
TL;DR: The results indicate that MOE significantly reduced cyclophosphamide induced immunosuppression by stimulating both cellular and humoral immunity.

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.
