Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Clinically, we enrolled 100 OSCC patients and 30 HDs to demonstrate a significantly higher MDSC frequency in OSCC candidates than HDs. To determine whether using β-glucan as a food-grade supplement promotes the immune system of OSCC patients, we further allocated OSCC patients with and without pre-surgical administration of whole glucan particle β-glucan to groups II and III, respectively (with group I being the HDs).
We will explore whether using particulate β-glucan as a food-grade supplement promotes the human immune system via subversion of immune modulatory MDSCs. Lastly, we correlated clinicopathological parameters with MDSCs and β-glucan administration to examine anti-tumor immunity, and to predict the therapeutic effect and prognosis in OSCC patients.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
OSCC subjects with β-glucan supplement
Oral squamous cell carcinoma subjects with pre-surgical administration of whole glucan particle β-glucan
β-glucan
β-glucan, a biological response regulator, derived from yeast has been known for more than 45 years, and has anti-infective and anti-tumor activities. β-glucan is a molecule with a β-1,3-linked D-glucose backbone and β-1,6-linked side chains. Thus far, at least 4 receptors for β-glucan have been discovered in humans, which are surface antigens associated with macrophages or myeloid precursor cells as complement receptor 3 (CR3; CD11b/CD18, Mac-1, αMβ2 integrin) (Vetvicka et al. 1996; Xia et al. 1999), lactosylceramide (Zimmerman et al. 1998), scavenger receptor (Rice et al. 2002) and dectin-1 (Brown et al. 2003; Taylor et al. 2007; Saijo et al. 2007).
