Chemo Boost System

Chemo Boost System

Reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum) spore oil improved delivery of paclitaxel by forming nano-sized droplets (~26 nm) and enhancing absorption through the lymphatic system. This system triggered strong immune activation, increasing dendritic cell maturation and cytotoxic T cell activity while amplifying tumor cell death through a feedback loop.
