Solamargine, solasonine, ginsenosides and parishin-related compounds were investigated for their effects on mdr efflux pump of lymphoma cells, and their effects on T cell proliferative assays and cell mediated immune functions, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and natural killer (NK) cell activity of human peripheral mononuclear cells. Solamargine and solasonine were the only drugs which inhibited all of the tested immune functions; however, ginsenoside Rc and Rd enhanced T cell proliferative assays and marginally increased the NK cell activity. The majority of the compounds were not able to reverse the multidrug resistance of mouse lymphoma cells. However, ginsenosides Rc, Rd and parishin C were able to moderately reduce the activity of the efflux pump. Parishin, parishin C and crude extract significantly enhanced the ADCC reaction.
