Abstract

In this experiment, we seek to confirm the modulating effects of CEO addition to macrophage RAW 264.7 cells that have been stimulated by IFN-γ and LPS. By studying the effects of CEO modulator on macrophages, we will be able to contribute to the research that has been done that has sought to establish this essential oil as an effective anti-inflammatory agent for medical treatment. Finding safe and effective drugs to treat inflammatory diseases is a pressing issue in public health today, since many drugs that are available have adverse long-term effects.
