Applications of lipopolysaccharide derived from Pantoea agglomerans (IP-PA1) for health care based on macrophage network theory
Abstract
Innate immunity is a universal prophylactic system which all multi-cellular animals possess. Macrophages are the cells that play the central role in the innate immune system. In 1991, we discovered a substance in a water extract of wheat flour that activated macrophages after oral or intradermal administration. The active substance was lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is derived from the cell walls of Pantoea agglomerans, gram-negative bacteria that grows symbiotically with wheat. We named the substance IP-PA1 (immuno potentiator from P. agglomerans, former name: LPSp). The IP-PA1 is considered to be useful in various fields such as health food (to prevent and improve metabolic syndromes), skincare products (to maintain healthy skin, to improve atopic dermatitis, and to resist aging), and as active ingredients in feeds for stockbreeding and aquaculture (to act as a defense against infection). In this manuscript, we discuss the significance of activation of macrophages through oral or intradermal administration, the discovery of IP-PA1 as a macrophage-activating substance, the chemical structure of IP-PA1, the use of IP-PA1 to improve various disorders, the mechanism of action, and the possibility of application of IP-PA1 to various fields.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
