Properties
Description
Lentinan-insulin, referenced as insulin-lentinan, engineers a hormone-conjugated variant through polypeptide attachment to lentinan's β-glucan matrix. The metabolic-immune hybrid preserves triple-helix architecture while modulating glucose-regulated tumor environments via thymic activation pathways.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
