Effects of polatus polysaccharides on liver carbohydrate metabolism and adrenocortical function of mice bearing hepatoma h22 %K %X The number of hepatoma H22 cells in mice was reduced 39% on d 10 after ip Polyporus umbellatus (Pers.) Fr. polysaccharides 200 mg/kg, q 2 d. The plasma corticosterone, liver glycogen content and enzyme activities in glyconeogenesis in mice bearing hepatoma were restored by ip Polyporus umbellatus 200, 400 mg/kg, qd x5 d. There were no such effects on normal mice. It seems that such adaptogenic action of Polyporus umbellatus is the basis of its antitumor effects. %U http://www.chinaphar.com/article/view/8484 %V 4 %N 1 %P 52-54 %@ 1745-7254
