“…Mollusks are an excellent source of high‐quality nutrition in China as well as other parts of the world and have been used as food products and traditional Chinese medicinal drugs for centuries. In recent years, the water‐soluble polysaccharides present in mollusks have become the focus of intense interest due to their various bioactivities, such as immunomodulation activity (Dai, Zhang, Zhang, & Wang, ; Ovodova et al., ), antioxidant, and hepato‐protective activities (Jiang, Wang, Liu, Gan, & Zeng, ; Liao et al., ).…”

“…Some studies have investigated the structure and bioactivity of compounds from other shellfishes . Mytilan, isolated from the mantle of the mussel Crenomytilus grayanus , was shown to demonstrate high immunomodulating activity . A polysaccharide (glycogen) generated from Perna canaliculus was found to exhibit antiinflammatory activity .…”

“…3 Mytilan, isolated from the mantle of the mussel Crenomytilus grayanus, was shown to demonstrate high immunomodulating activity. 4 A polysaccharide (glycogen) generated from Perna canaliculus was found to exhibit antiinflammatory activity. 5 A heparin-like substance separated from the marine clam Anomalocardia brasiliana was able to bind antithrombin III, and was demonstrated to have effective anticoagulant activity.…”

“…If valid, the finding by Arvindekar and Patil 3 may add new clues to the elucidation of the bioactive components of the S. cerevisiae cell wall 33 . The bioactivity of (1→4)-α-D-glucans from microbial 10 , fungal 15 , plant 8,32 or animal 27 origin is well documented. Therefore, any additional research data that can confirm or deny the presence of (1→4)-α-D-glucan in a covalently bound form in S. cerevisiae cell wall might have, not only scientific, but also commercial value 29 .…”
