Abstract

Secondary metabolites of essential oil crops are capable of exhibiting antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and immunostimulatory properties in human and animal organisms. In this study, we investigate the immunomodulatory effect of coriander and fennel essential oils using swine models as those most similar to the physiological state of humans. The immune status was assessed by determining the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 genes in swine blood leucocytes. The results established a significant decrease in the expression of cytokines in the experimental groups compared with the control group: IL-6 and IL-8 by 4.69 and 19.31 times in group 1, and by 9.15 and 3.54 times in group 2. The essential oils under investigation were established to demonstrate immunomodulatory effects, allowing animals and humans to respond more plasticity to external factors of various genesis.
