Polysaccharides are long-chain sugars commonly found in some mushrooms. Polysaccharide-rich mushrooms are used as ingredients in anti-viral medication. Research has shown that polysaccharides in certain mushrooms have the ability to inhibit tumor growth by activating immune cells. They help balance the immune system and destroy existing cancer cells and viruses by increasing the production of natural killer cells, interferon and interleukin.
Interferon is a group of proteins produced by the body. It helps fight viral infections by preventing virus multiplication in cells. Interferon has also been shown to have anti-tumor properties. Interleukins are proteins produced by macrophages and lymphocytes. They act upon other lymphocytes which regulate the immune system, especially cell-mediated immunity.
