Abstract

Biological effects (mitogenic and colony-stimulating factor (CSF)-inducing activities) of five homogeneous polysaccharides and a conjugated polysaccharide fraction isolated from the fruit bodies of Dictyophora indusiata Fisch. were investigated. Fucomammogalactan (T-3-Ad) and conjugated polysaccharide fraction (T-2-A) exhibited significant mitogenic and CSF-inducing activities. Among two beta-(1----6)-branched (1----3)-beta-D-glucans (T-4-N and T-5-N), only T-4-N showed both mitogenic and CSF-inducing effects. Partially O-acetylated (1----3)-alpha-D-mannans (T-2-HN and T-3-M') did not show these effects.
