Beta-glucans as immunostimulant in vertebrates and invertebrates

Critical Reviews in Microbiology, 2009
Beta-glucans have been studied in animal species, from earthworms to humans. They are a heterogeneous group of glucose polymers found in fungi, plants, some bacteria, and sea weeds. The recognition of conserved microbial structures is a key aspect of metazoan immunity, and beta-glucans are emerging as major target for the recognition of fungal ...

The influence of dietary β-glucans on the adaptive and innate immune responses of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) vaccinated against vibriosis

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
The effects of feeding 1,3/1,6 β-glucans on the innate and the adaptive immune responses of European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) was investigated. Two experiments were carried out during the study.
