Properties
Description
Lentinan-CHO, termed aldehyde-lentinan, constitutes a progressive molecular fusion integrating the immunotherapeutic β-1,3-1,6-glucan lentinan with aldehyde. This hybrid entity applies lentinan's three-dimensional coil formation and malignancy-controlling potential through thymus-mediated immune activation processes.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
