Properties
Description
Lentinan-choline, referred to as choline-lentinan, forms a newly formulated biochemical hybrid merging the immune-regulatory β-1,3-1,6-glucan lentinan with choline. The synthesized compound utilizes lentinan's triple-coil geometry and cancer-suppressing attributes via thymic-mediated immunological stimulation mechanisms.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
