CC50: 50% cytotoxic concentration for U937-DC-SIGN cells (μg/mL); EC50: 50% effective concentration (μg/mL); Selectivity index values (SI = CC50/EC50) are presented between parenthesis; NI: No inhibitory activity; FR: A. subrufescens polysaccharide; FR-S: Sulfated A. subrufescens polysaccharide; CEG: Celgosivir. Values represent the mean ± SD of three independent experiments.
