The Mushroom <i>Agaricus blazei</i> Murill Elicits Medicinal Effects on Tumor, Infection, Allergy, and Inflammation through Its Modulation of Innate Immunity and Amelioration of Th1/Th2 Imbalance and Inflammation

<table>Role of the mushroom <i>Agaricus blazei</i> Murill in immune system modulation and disease control. It is assumed that besides <i>β</i>-glucans also other, yet unknown substances in the mushroom, probably of low molecular weight, do parttake in the action. IL-12 is the cytokine from the monocyte/dendritic cell that stimulates Th0.</table>
