Polysaccharides from edible fungus have various biological activities, with a particular focus on their immunomodulatory effects. This review introduces recent research on the immunomodulatory effects and mechanism of these polysaccharides, as well as discussing the relationship between structure and immunomodulatory effects.
The polysaccharides from edible fungus showed many kinds of biological activities, including anti-tumor, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetes, improving functional constipation activities. In particular, the immunomodulatory effects have been paid more and more attention by scholars, but there was no systematic introduction of their immunomodulatory mechanism. So, this review introduced the immunomodulatory effects and mechanism of edible fungus polysaccharides in recent years, and then the relationships between structure and immunomodulatory effect were also discussed.
