title: [The effect of yeast glycans in experimental LPS-induced endotoxicosis].
abstract: The immunomodulating action of yeast glycans obtained from Rhodotorula rubra (rhonasan) and Sporobolomyces albo-rubescens (heteroglycan Sp-50) was studied under the conditions of experimental endotoxicosis in mice, induced by the injection of the sublethal dose of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS). In endotoxicosis glycans produced a protective effect, depending on the time of injection. The study demonstrated that after the injection of glycans the survival rate of the animals increased and the LPS-inhibited function of peritoneal macrophages and B lymphocytes was completely or partially restored.
