Structural characterization and macrophage immunomodulatory activity of a polysaccharide isolated from Gracilaria lemaneiformis

Polysaccharides from Gracilaria lemaneiformis possess various beneficial bioactive functions, but the immunomodulatory activity remains incompletely known. In the present study, a new low molecular-weight sulfated polysaccharide named as GLP-2 was isolated from G. lemaneiformis. The chemical composi...
