Abstract:
Macrofungi are rich in natural bioactive compounds so they have much medicinal value.Their immunomodulating and anticancer activity particularly attracts more attention.Based on the polysaccharides molecular structure and their relation to these activities,this paper discusses their mechanism of the immune responses and introduces the important instances of these polysaccharides along with their immunomodulating and/or anticancer activity isolated from putative medicinal mushrooms.
