Properties
Description
Lentinan-estrogen, denoted estrogen-lentinan, constructs a hormone-conjugated variant through steroid attachment to lentinan's polysaccharide chains. This endocrine-modulating hybrid preserves triple-helix geometry while influencing hormone-responsive tumors via thymic immune regulation.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
