Properties
Description
Lentinan-glycyrrhetinic acid, called glycyrrhetinic acid-lentinan, represents a modern bioconjugate combining the immunomodulatory β-1,3-1,6-glucan lentinan with glycyrrhetinic acid. This composite design leverages lentinan's helical tertiary architecture and anti-tumor properties through thymus-oriented immune response activation.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
Source
Chemical synthesis
Functional Group
Glycyrrhetinic acid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Lentinan-glycyrrhetinic acid can be used for its potential to explore glycyrrhetinic acid conjugation for hepatocyte-targeted delivery in liver fibrosis models.
