Abstract
Administration of the extract from the roots of Panax ginseng increased the incorporation rate of labeled precursor into rat renal nuclear RNA; this stimulating effect being dose dependent. The maximum activity was observed at 8 h after treatment. The sequential cytoplasmic RNA synthesis was stimulated maximally at 10 h after administration. The stimulating effect of the ginseng extract on RNA synthesis resulted in an increased incorporation of labeled leucine into rat renal protein. The maximum activity was observed at 12 h after i.p. administration.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
