The relationship between the conformation of (1----3)-beta-D-glucans in gel or hydrated form and the stimulation of two types of biological responses, namely, activation of coagulation Factor G from limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) and host-mediated antitumor activity was examined. Both types were act
Extensive surveys for the effects of various P-o&cans on the coagulation cascade in horseshoe crab amebocyte lysates showed that low-mol-wt-(1 + 3)-p-o-glucans and laminaran oligosaccharides inhibit the activation of a limulus coagulation factor G by high-mol-wt-(1 + 3)+?-o-glucans. The inhibitory p
