초록
On the inter-order protoplast fusants of Lentinus edodes and Ganoderma lucidum was the antitumor activity test performed and the fusant P22 was selected. The hot water extract of the cultured mycelia of P22 were purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatographya and the resulting purified fraction was designated as P22A. It was found to be a proteoglycan whose molecular weight was 47 kDa. When examined for immunopotentiation activity, P22A increased the number of colony forming unit in the bone marrow stem cells to 3-folds. It also potentiated the secretion of nitric oxide in activated macrophages to 2-folds. In humoral immune response, it increased the activities of the alkaline phosphatase in differentiated B cells to 1.6-folds and the number of plaque forming cells to 1.8-folds. In cellular immune response, it restored the depressed response of delayed type hypersensitivity in tumor bearing mice to normal level. These results suggest that P22A have potential to restore the decreased immune activity of the tumor bearing mice to normal level.
