ACTIVATION DE CELLULE-T-PROMOTEUR HUMAINE/INDUCTRICE, CELLULE DE LYMPHOCYTE T CYTOTOXIQUE/SUPPRESSIVE, LYMPHOCYTE B ET DE CELLULES TUEUSES NATURELLES (NK)ET INDUCTION DE L'ACTIVITÉ DE CELLULES TUEUSES NATURELLES CONTRE DES CELLULES K562 DE LA LEUCÉMIE MYÉLOÏDE CHRONIQUE AVEC DE LA PECTINE D'AGRUMES MODIFIÉE

摘要

Modified Citrus Pectin is comprised of short, slightly -branched carbohydrate chains derived from citrus fruit peels alter by decreasing the molecular weight and degree of esterification. MCP is demonstrated herein to induce the activation of T-cytotoxic/suppressor cells, B-cells and NK-cells. Administration of MCP to mammals offers a method to enhance immune system responses of this kind in mammals in need of the same using safe and familiar materials.
