Research Progress on the Antitumor Effect of Polysaccharides from Fungus Used in Traditional Chinese Medicine

摘要

Cancer is a serious threat to human health.Fungal polysaccharide is a polar biological macromolecule with low toxicity.It has a wide range of biological activities,including immune regulation,antitumor activity,and antiviral activity.In recent years,the research results have shown that polysaccharides from fungus in traditional Chinese medicine have excellent antitumor effect in liver cancer,gastric cancer,breast cancer,colon cancer,esophageal cancer,and lung cancer.Therefore,the research and development of fungal polysaccharides are of great significance for the development of antitumor drugs in the future.
