In silico and in vivo assessment of the immunostimulatory activity of palmitic acid derived from Vernonia amygdalina

Abstract Vernonia amygdalina is rich in palmitic acid (PA), a bioactive known for its anti-inflammatory capabilities. Yet, there is a paucity of scientific information on the immunostimulatory effect of the compound on the immune response. Therefore, this study assessed the potential of PA to modula...
