Systemic Immunomodulatory Effects of Codonopsis pilosula Glucofructan on S180 Solid-Tumor-Bearing Mice.

Researchers investigated the effects of an immunopotentiator called CPG on the immune response in tumor-bearing mice. Results showed that CPG inhibited tumor growth, enhanced immune responses, and induced tumor cell death. These findings contribute to our understanding of the immune system's role in fighting tumors.
