WGP control / Dectin-1b inhibitor - Whole Glucan Particles, soluble
WGP Soluble (WGP® Soluble, Biothera) is a pure soluble WGP preparation.
Similar to particulate WGP, WGP Soluble binds efficiently with Dectin-1b, however, it is incapable of activating this receptor [1].
Furthermore, WGP Soluble is able to significantly block the binding of WGP to macrophages and its immunostimulatory effect [2].
