| Research Abstract |
The effect of fungal beta-glucan (BG) on the allergic dermatitis, animal model using tape-stripping and BG-painting model on mice were examined. Repeated application of Candida-derived BG and antigen accelerated the inflammation in skin tissue. Characterization of BG receptors concerning the BG-induced inflammation suggested that complement receptors support BG-recognition and the immune cell activation induced by dectin-1-mediated cell activity.
