Research Abstract |
Japanese herbal prescription 'Hochuekkito" has been used for prevention of upper respiratory infection and treatment of anorexia based on intestinal mucositis induced by anti-cancer chemotherapy, however, action mechanism of the prescription for these clinical effects have not been well clarified. The present study proposed that 1) the prescription enhanced induction of regulative adaptor molecules such as IRAK-M to result improvement of drug-induced mucostis, 2) oligosaccharides in the prescription play as active ingredients for enhancement of mucosal immune system of upper respiratory tract, 3) the oligosaccharides could modulate immune fuction of immunocompetent cells in Peyer's patches as well as epithelial cells of small intestine, 4) the oligosaccharides could improve drug-induced mucositis in small intestine through induction of IRAK-M.
