Route of Administration: Topical
In Vitro Use Guide
Curator's Comment: The suppressor cell activity of T6S cells was clearly counteracted by glycyrrhizin mononuclear cells (GR-MNC) in vitro in a mixed lymphocyte-tumor cell reaction. The type of cells responsible for anti-suppressor cells in GR-MNC was shown to be a CD4+ CD28+ TCR alpha/beta + Vicia villosa lectin-adherent T cell. These results suggest that GR may reverse the increased susceptibility of thermally injured mice to herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV) infection through the induction of CD4+ contrasuppressor T cells.
Glycyrrhetinic acid (ENOXOLONE) could inhibit CYP3A4 activity competitively, with a Ki value of 1.57 μM in human liver microsomes.
