Research progress on intestinal immunoregulation and mechanism of Sijunzi Decoction polysaccharide / 中草药

ABSTRACT

Sijunzi Decoction polysaccharide (SJZDP) is the active component contributing to the function of intestinal immunoregulation, which is the highest content in Sijunzi Decoction. SJZDP can activate immunological response in peyer’s patch, mesenteric lymph nodes, intestinal epithelial cells and intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes, but the mechanism is unknown. The reported mechanisms of SJZDP’s intestinal immunoregulation activity are related to its regulation of intestinal flora and polyamine signaling pathway. This review is to give a comprehensive summary of information regarding the intestinal immunoregulation of SJZDP and mechanism to help us take the action for reasonable clinical utilization and further researches.
