Evaluation of Chale Neem (Azadirachta Indica) As an Immunomodulator in Elderly Persons: A Single Blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Study
Abstract: Elderly subjects have loss of functionality and dysregulation of immune system. Immunosenescence is associated with deleterious changes, primarily in adaptive immunity and particularly in T cell subset. It includes reduced production of T cells in bone marrow and thymus and diminished function of mature lymphoid tissues. As a result, elderly individuals do not respond to immune challenge and are at increased risk of infection and related complications. Chale Neem (Azadirachta …
