The exo-polysaccharides isolated from liquid culture broth of Cordyceps militaris have been known to have anti-tumor, immune modulatory, and anti-oxidative activation. Activated macrophages such as the cell viability, phagocytic uptake, release of toxic molecules including nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were investigated. To address whether exo-polysaccharides from Cordyceps militaris can modulate splenocyte proliferation and functional activation of macrophages, various cellular activities of macrophages (such as ROS generation, and NO production) were studied. In this study, we examined immunostimulatory potency in immune responses of macrophages and splenocyte using exo-polysaccharides prepared from liquid culture of Cordyceps militaris.
