Nutraceutical functions of beta-glucans in human nutrition

Roczniki Panstwowego Zakladu Higieny, 2019
Recent studies have shown that naturally occurring substances found in the food of the daily human diet are important for preventing chronic non-communicable diseases. One of them is beta-glucan, which is a natural polysaccharide, occurring in plant cell

Oral beta-glucan adjuvant therapy converts nonprotective Th2 response to protective Th1 cell-mediated immune response in mammary tumor-bearing mice.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2007
Beta (1-3)-D-glucans were identified almost 40 years ago as biological response modifiers that stimulated tumor rejection. In vitro studies have shown that beta-glucans bind to a lectin domain within complement receptor type 3 (CR3), or to, more recently

Cellulosimicrobium cellulans strain E4-5 enzymatic hydrolysis of curdlan for production of (1 -> 3)-linked beta-D-glucan oligosaccharides

, 2015
In order to find an efficient enzymatic tool for curdlan degradation to produce (1 -> 3)-linked beta-D-glucan oligosaccharides, strain E4-5 (registration number JN089883, Genbank) was isolated from seaside soil. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing classified
