title: [Immunostimulating effect of plant triterpenes and their derivatives].
abstract: The immunostimulating activity of triterpenes of vegetable origin and their derivatives was studied. The study revealed that glycyrrhizic and betulonic acids, as well as derivatives of ursolic and glycyrrhetinic acids, enhanced the level of specific antibodies to bovine serum albumin in mice.
