Dear Sandbox,

I made recently an edit about β-glucans. This modification has been removed.

For your information: The immunological activity of β-glucans depends on their molecular structure, including polymer length and degree of branching, their solubility, and their influence on the activation or inhibition of leukocyte receptors. We found recently that short fractions of highly purified β-1,3 glucans purified from Candida albicans blocked platelet activities. Additionally, the oral administration of these soluble β-glucans fractions reduced leukocyte infiltration into the gut mucosa and all inflammatory parameters. Unfortunately, we don’t find these information in Wikipedia β-glucans page.

Best regards, Samir Jawhara
