Prebiotic Effect Stimulation of Immune Response by Mushroom Cell Wall Components
Mushroom cell wall components can stimulate the immune response through activation of Toll-like receptors on immune cells. This leads to activation and modulation of T cells, B cells, and NK cells, resulting in effects like cytotoxic activity, antibody production, and anti-viral and anti-tumoral activities. Certain components may also have prebiotic effects through stimulating beneficial gut bacteria like Bifidobacteria and influence the gut epithelium and immune system.
