Polysaccharide peptides from Coriolus versicolor exert differential immunomodulatory effects on blood lymphocytes and breast cancer cell line MCF-7 in vitro
Abstract
Protein-bound polysaccharides from Coriolus versicolor (Trametes versicolor) induced a TNF-alpha-dependent decrease in MCF-7 breast cancer cell growth while augmenting proliferation of blood lymphocytes with IL-6 and IL-1beta upregulation, demonstrating differential immunomodulatory and anticancer effects.
