To investigate the immunomodulatory activities of Chimonanthus nitens Oliv polysaccharides (COP1), an immunosuppressive mouse model was generated by cyclophosphamide (CY) administration and then treated with COP1. The results demonstrated that COP1 ameliorated the body weight and immune organ (spleen and thymus) index of mice and improved the ...

Immunomodulatory activity of carboxymethyl pachymaran on immunosuppressed mice induced by cyclophosphamide [PDF]
The effects of immunomodulatory activity of two types of carboxymethyl pachymaran (CMP-1 and CMP-2) on cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced mice were investigated. Both CMP-1 and CMP-2 were found to restore the splenomegaly and alleviate the spleen lesions and

Structural Characterization and Ameliorative Effects of <i>Mesona chinensis</i> Benth Polysaccharide Against Deoxynivalenol-Induced Oxidative Stress in Intestinal Epithelial Cells. [PDF]
Objectives: Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a ubiquitous mycotoxin detected in the environment and foodstuffs. DON exposure can lead to chronic intestinal inflammation. Therefore, intervention strategy needs to be established to prevent the intestinal inflammation caused by DON. Methods: The structure of Mesona chinensis Benth polysaccharide-3 (MCP-3), a major
