Abstract
The effect of compound nutrients on serum concentrations of the cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-2, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin (IL)-6 in immobilization and cold water-immersion stressed rat were investigated. Oral (gavage) administration of compound nutrients was found to attenuate the acute and chronic immobilization and cold water-immersion stress-induced increase in serum IL-6 level and decrease in IL-2 level. Compound nutrients exerted different effects on TNF-alpha level in two different models studied, with reduced serum TNF-alpha level in acute stress, while no significant effect in chronic stress. These results suggested that compound nutrients might be proposed as a possible candidate in the research or therapeutic modulation of stress-related disorders.Entities:
