Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain an infection preventing and treating agent which can intensify biological defense activity and useful for preventing and treating infectious diseases by using Grifola frondosa having an excellent infection controlling activity against a pathogenic microorganism. SOLUTION: An infection preventing and treating agent containing an extract of Grifola frondosa and/or dried powder of Grifola frondosa. The extract of Grifola frondosa is preferably obtained by extraction-treating raw Grifola frondosa, dried Grifola frondosa and/or dried Grifola frondosa powder with cold or hot water. Further, it is preferable that the extract is obtained by adding alcohol to the extract, leaving it as it is, and subsequently collecting a fluid fraction, or collecting a fluid fraction after removing the matter floating in the liquid or the matter attached on the wall surface of a container.

The maitake extract of the present invention can be administered to mice infected with Listeria monocytogenes alone or by vancomycin (VCM).
, The killing effect against the bacterium was enhanced compared to VCM alone. This is thought to be due to the fact that the maitake extract activates various immune cells themselves. It is effective for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases of elderly people, cancer patients and diabetes patients. In addition, in combination with the maitake extract and VCM, meningoencephalitis caused by Listeria monocytogenes, listeriosis such as sepsis, M

An infection administration test was performed using four groups, a CM alone administration group and a control group (non-administration group). In the combination group of purified polysaccharide fraction and VCM, the purified polysaccharide fraction (10 mg / kg) was intraperitoneally administered three times every other day, and 10 days after the start of administration, Listeria monocytogenes (Lister

(2) Test results In the control group, all mice died on the third day of infection,
In the group administered with the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction alone or in the combined group with the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction and VCM, half of the mice survived even after 10 days. The viability of Listeria monocytogenes in the mouse intraperitoneal cavity decreased most in the combined group of purified polysaccharide fraction and VCM. Furthermore, the ability of macrophages to produce IL-1 was increased 2.8-fold by the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction compared to the control group. However, this productivity was not disturbed by VCM. In all spleen cells, the viable cell count of Listeria monocytogenes was reduced to 34 to 19% by the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction alone or in combination with the VCM, while the group to which VCM was administered alone was 46% of the control group. On the other hand, when the high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction was administered alone, T cells were activated by this purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction, and showed a killing effect about 1.3 times that of the control group. This was thought to be because T cells were activated by the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction and acquired a Listeria monocytogenes antigen-specific damaging effect. The effect was increased to 2.6 times by the combination with VCM. The above are the test results of the purified high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction. The above [Example 1] (1) i
The same effect was observed for the extract of No. 1 and the high-molecular-weight polysaccharide fraction prepared in No. ii, although there were differences in the effects.
