Selected β-glucans act as immune-training agents by improving anti-mycobacterial activity in human macrophages - a pilot study.
Epigenetic reprogramming of innate immune cells by β-glucan in a process called trained immunity, leads to an enhanced host response to a secondary infection. β-glucans are structural components of plants, algae, fungi and bacteria and thus recognized as non-self by human macrophages. We selected th...
