The present study was performed to investigate the immunomodulatory potential of the extract through different tests: MTT assay, BrdU proliferation assay. Trypan blue direct cell counting, cytokine (IL-2. IL-12 and IFN-y) ELISA assay and Annexin V cytotoxicity assay. Concanavalin A (Con A) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were used as positive control. The observed results from all MTT assay, BrdU proliferation assay and Trypan blue direct cell counting showed that the plant extract stimulated the PBMC at 48 and 72 h where 25 pg/m1 was the optimum concentration. On the other hand. the results of the cytokines study showed that 25 pg/ml induced the secretion of IL-2 (433 ± 25 pg/ml) and IFN-y (7336 ± 131.79 pg/ml) but not IL-12 at 72 h only. The activated PBMC also directed the effector cell (K562) in mix culture to undergo apoptosis (12.96 ± 0.57% of early apoptosis and 10.60 ± 0.21% of late apoptosis) at the ratio of 2/1 of PBMC/K562. The present results indicate that R. korthalsii extract showed evidences of immunomodulating activity which may be potential to use as an immunotherapy agent_ ©2011 Academic Journals. 958-965
