Zymosan A from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is prepared from yeast cell wall and consists of protein-carbohydrate complexes. It is used to induce experimental sterile inflammation. In macrophages, zymosan-induced responses include the induction of proinflammatory cytokines, arachidonate mobilization, protein phosphorylation, and inositol phosphate formation. Zymosan A from Saccharomyces cerevisiae also raises cyclin D2 levels suggesting a role for the latter in macrophage activation besides proliferation. It potentiates acute liver damage after galactosamine is introduced suggesting that certain types of nonparenchymal cells other than Kupffer cells are involved in Zymosan A from Saccharomyces cerevisiae action.
