Preliminary study of the toxicity and radioprotective effects of zymosan in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
Background This study aimed to confirm the cytotoxicity of zymosan in vitro and in vivo and determine the appropriate treatment time and the dose of zymosan. Methods AHH-1 cells and HIECs were administered by 0, 20, 40, 80 or 160 μg/mL zymosan. The CCK-8

Forsythoside A Modulates Zymosan-Induced Peritonitis in Mice [PDF]
Acute inflammation is a protective response of the host to physical injury and invading infection. Timely treatment of acute inflammatory reactions is essential to prevent damage to organisms that can eventually lead to chronic inflammation. Forsythoside

Hidden attributes of zymosan in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases: A tale of the fungal agent [PDF]
Inflammation triggers immune system-mediated actions that contribute to the development of multiple diseases. Zymosan, a polysaccharide derived from the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell wall, is mainly made up of glucan and mannan residues and is used as an

Anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibody attenuates high-fat diet and zymosan-induced vascular inflammation in C57BL/6 mice by modulating TLR2/NF-ƙB signaling pathway [PDF]
Objective(s): Excess intake of a high-fatty diet (HFD) together with zymosan administration mediates vasculitis response which leads to impaired serum lipid levels and causes arterial stiffness. In the development of new cholesterol-lowering medications,

Zymosan-A promotes the regeneration of intestinal stem cells by upregulating ASCL2
Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) are responsible for intestinal tissue homeostasis and are important for the regeneration of the damaged intestinal epithelia. Through the establishment of ionizing radiation (IR) induced intestinal injury model, we found that
