β-D-Glucan
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
β-D-glucan is a natural non-digestible polysaccharide and high biocompatibility that can be selectively recognized by recognition receptors such as Dectin-1 and Toll-like receptors as well as being easily internalized by murine or human macrophages, which is likely to attribute to a target delivery. β-d-glucan is an enteric delivery vehicle for probiotics.

β-D-glucan dissolved in DMSO but not water inhibits MCF-7 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner as measured by BrdU incorporation with an IC50 of ~164 μg/mL. β-D-glucan dissolved in DMSO inhibits tamoxifen/endocrine-resistant LCC9 and LY2 cell proliferation with IC50 values of 4.6 and 24.2 μg/mL, respectively[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
