Recent studies have repeatedly suggested that the biological activities of β-glucan can be potentiated by the addition of other bioactive agents. In the current study, we focused on the anticancer effects of a combination of yeast-derived β-glucan and a selenium-linked pseudodisaccharide. Using three different models of murine cancer, we showed that this combination strongly suppressed the growth of all three types of cancers, most likely via the interaction with natural anticancer antibodies.}, issn = {0250-7005}, URL = {https://ar.iiarjournals.org/content/34/12/6939}, eprint = {https://ar.iiarjournals.org/content/34/12/6939.full.pdf}, journal = {Anticancer Research} }
