The Immunomodulatory Effect of β-Glucan Depends on the Composition of the Gut Microbiota

open access: yesFoods, 2023
This study aimed to elucidate the relationship between the immunomodulatory effects of β-glucan and the composition of gut microbiota in mice. The mice were fed a diet containing β-glucan for 3 weeks, and feces, blood, and tissues were then collected to ...

Soluble mannan and β-glucan inhibit the uptake ofMalassezia furfurby human monocytic cell line, THP-1 [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Immunology & Medical Microbiology, 1998
The uptake of live and heat-killed Malassezia furfur HIC 3321, HIC 3343 and Candida albicans ATCC 10231 by human monocytic cell line, THP-1, was examined. THP-1 was differentiated by PMA for 7 days before use. The uptake of these yeasts by THP-1 was increased in a concentration-dependent manner of yeasts, and the uptake reached plateau level at the E/T

Effect of dietary β-glucan supplementation on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and characteristics of feces in weaned pigs

open access: yesJournal of Applied Animal Research, 2018
A total of 150 crossbred weaned pigs [(Yorkshire × Landrace) × Duroc] with an average body weight of 6.75 ± 0.49 kg were used in a 6-wk trial to determine the effects of dietary supplementation of β-glucan on growth performance, nutrient digestibility ...

In Vitro Bile Acid Binding Activity within Flour Fractions from Oat Lines with Typical and High β-Glucan Amounts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Whole flours from four oat lines with different amounts of β-glucan (4.8−8.1%) were examined for their antioxidant activity and total phenolic and lignin concentrations.

β-Glucan Metabolic and Immunomodulatory Properties and Potential for Clinical Application

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
β-glucans are complex polysaccharides that are found in several plants and foods, including mushrooms. β-glucans display an array of potentially therapeutic properties. β-glucans have metabolic and gastro-intestinal effects, modulating the gut microbiome,

In Vitro Bile-Acid Binding and Fermentation of High, Medium, and Low Molecular Weight β-Glucan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The impact of β-glucan molecular weight (MW) on in vitro bile-acid binding and in vitrofermentation with human fecal flora was evaluated. β-Glucan extracted from oat line ‘N979-5-4’ was treated with lichenase (1,3−1,4-β-d-glucanase) to yield high (6.87 ×

Whole β-glucan particle attenuates AOM/DSS-induced colorectal tumorigenesis in mice via inhibition of intestinal inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Yeast β-glucan is a polysaccharide purified from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall, and its multiple biological activities are essential for immune regulation.

β-glucans and eicosapolyenoic acids as MAMPs in plant–oomycete interactions: past and present [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Branched β-1,3-glucans and the eicosapolyenoic acids (EP) are among the best characterized oomycete elicitors that trigger innate immune responses in plants. These elicitors were identified over three decades ago, and they were useful in the study of the sequence of physiological, biochemical and molecular events that induce resistance in plants ...

The Dual Activity Responsible for the Elongation and Branching of β-(1,3)-Glucan in the Fungal Cell Wall

open access: yesmBio, 2017
β-(1,3)-Glucan, the major fungal cell wall component, ramifies through β-(1,6)-glycosidic linkages, which facilitates its binding with other cell wall components contributing to proper cell wall assembly.

Characterisation of soluble and insoluble cell wall fractions from rye, wheat and hull-less barley endosperm flours [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Within cereal endosperm flours, arabinoxylan and β-glucan molecules exist in either a soluble or an insoluble form. From a nutritional functionality viewpoint, soluble and insoluble forms offer different potential health advantages, so it is important to
