Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesRegulation of Gene Expression by β-GlucansMary O. Huff, Carolyn M. Klingeβ-D-glucans are diverse polysaccharides derived from plant cell walls, fungi and bacteria. β-D-glucans are composed of D-glucose monomers linked by (1-3) β-glycosidic bonds with varying amounts of (1-6) or (1-4) linked side chains that bind cell surface receptors ultimately triggering changes in intracellular pathways and gene transcription. β-D-glucans have anti-viral, immunomodulatory and anti-cancer activities. This article reviews the current identity … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,553 accessesView PDF Cite
