Abstract

Evidence for immunoadjuvant activity of the Helianthus tuberosus L. polysaccharide was obtained in an antibody-producing cell model. Dectin-1 and TLR-6 were identified as major receptors required for biological activity of polysaccharide in a TNF-α stimulation model. The CR3 receptor was not implicated in polysaccharide recognition in the same model. Enzyme treatment of the H. tuberosus L. polysaccharide demonstrated the presence of ß-(1 → 4) and ß-(1 → 3) glycosidic bonds.
