METHOD FOR EVALUATING IMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT EFFECT OF IMMUNOGENIC MATERIAL BY USING DENDRITIC CELLS, AND METHOD FOR SCREENING FOR IMMUNOGENIC MATERIAL

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for evaluating an immunity enhancement or immunity improvement effect of an immunogenic material by using dendritic cells, and a method for screening for an immunogenic functional material and, more specifically, to a method for evaluating an immunity enhancement effect of an immunogenic material, comprising the steps of: (A) culturing a treatment group in which dendritic cells are treated with a target material extract, and a control group in which blanks are processed; (B) using flow cytometry so as to measure, in the treatment group and the control group, the cell ratio of a group (A0) in which MHC II is expressed but CD40 is not expressed, and a group (A1) in which MHC II is strongly expressed and CD40 is also expressed; and (C) digitizing an immunity enhancement effect of the target material according to the following formula.
