Dynamic, morphotype-specific Candida albicans beta-glucan exposure during infection and drug treatment.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2008
Candida albicans, a clinically important dimorphic fungal pathogen that can evade immune attack by masking its cell wall beta-glucan from immune recognition, mutes protective host responses mediated by the Dectin-1 beta-glucan receptor on innate immune ...

Beta-glucan as a potent growth enhancer for autochthonous gut isolate Ligilactobacillus salivarius C57

open access: yesThe Microbe
Glucan and other polysaccharides have been extensively studied in recent decades for their bioactive qualities and potential as nutraceuticals. Increasing research indicates that beta-glucans, due to their high fermentability, may encourage advantageous ...

Dose-dependent cellular and humoral responses in Galleria mellonella larvae following beta-glucan inoculation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Galleria mellonella larvae were inoculated with different doses of β-glucan by injection into the haemocoel. Those larvae that had received high doses of β-glucan (15, 30 or 60 μg/larva) demonstrated increased survival following infection ...

Effect of beta 1,3 glucan in stress responses of the pencilfish (Nannostomus trifasciatus) during transport within the rio Negro basin

open access: yesNeotropical Ichthyology
We investigated the use of beta 1,3 glucan as an imunostimulant during a transport experiment to determine the effects upon the stress response of the pencilfish (Nannostomus trifasciatus). Pencilfish were fed for seven days with different concentrations
