The immunomodulatory activity of aqueous extract from Achyrocline satureioides, prepared using heating, was investigated with a mitogen‐induced cell proliferation assay and IL‐2 secretion in BALB/c mice. The results showed a slightly immunosuppressive activity. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
