摘要
The effect of intraperitoneally (i.p.) administered SSG, a beta-1,3-glucan obtained from the culture filtrate of the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum IFO 9395, on the functions of alveolar macrophages (AM) in CDF1 mice was examined. SSG administered i.p. increased the number of AM and enhanced several functions of murine AM (lysosonal enzyme activity, phagocytic activity, candidacidal activity, H2O2 production and interleukin 1 (IL-1) production) at a dose of 250-mu-g/mouse on days 1 and 8, especially on day 8. Furthermore, SSG (250-mu-g/mouse) administered i.p. for 10 consecutive days significantly inhibited the experimental pulmonary metastasis of Lewis Lung Carcinoma (3LL) on BDF1 mice.
