Chitooligosaccharides from the shrimp chitosan hydrolysate induces differentiation of murine RAW264.7 macrophages into dendritic-like cells
Dendritic cells and macrophages are professional antigen-presenting cells that activate T-cell-mediated immune responses. A water-soluble hydrolysate with immunomodulatory activity was obtained by cellulase degradation of shrimp chitosan. This chitosan hydrolysate was further separated into a low-mo...
