| Protein Information | |
| Protein Name | PS4A (water soluble protein- polysaccharide) |
| Subcellular Location | Intracellular |
| Function | PS4A significantly decreased tumor incidence in vivo, produced activation of murine peritoneal macrophages. However, the antineoplastic activity was only attributable to the high molecular weight fraction of the protein-polysaccharia complex. The low molecular weight fraction had no antineoplastic activity in viva despite stimulation of TNF-a production in vitro. In vitro experiments also demonstrated that although all PS4A components significantly increased TNF-? production by macrophages, the high molecular weight fraction stimulated more IL-1 production, indicating a better immunostimulating activity. |
