The effect of yeast beta-1, 3-glucan as an immunopotentiator of delayed type-hypersensitivity reactions (DHR) was studied. Delayed-type-hypersensitivity reactions in mice sensitized intraperitoneally (IP) with sheep red blood cells (SRBC) and pretreated three days previously with glucan given IP were significantly increased. However, mice sensitized IP with SRBC three days after the subcutaneous (SC) administration of glucan showed depressed DHR. Glucan given at the same site but not at distance strongly potentiated the DHR induced by SC sensitization with SRBC. Subcutaneous injection of glucan and SRBC given together also resulted in a sustained DHR which persisted twelve days after sensitization when DHR of control mice had waned.
