Overview of (1→3)-β-D-glucan immunobiology
Glucans are (1→3)-β-D-glucose polymers that are found in the cell wall of fungi, bacteria and plants. Glucans are known to stim ulate humoral and cell-mediated immunity in humans and animals. In addition to the potent immune stimulatory effects of (1→3)-β-D-glucans, there are a number of toxicologic...
