Phallus indusiatus Extracts Promoted MCF-7 Apoptosis Under TNFα-induced Tumor Microenvironment by Attenuating NF-kappaB and Akt Activation

mycolabadmin

Bamboo mushroom extracts show promise in helping treat breast cancer by making cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy drugs. The mushroom reduces inflammation and blocks protective signals in cancer cells, making them more likely to die. This research suggests bamboo mushroom could be a helpful supplement for breast cancer patients, especially when used alongside standard cancer treatments.

Comparative Multi-Omics Analysis and Antitumor Activity of Phylloporia crataegi and Phylloporia fontanesiae

mycolabadmin

Two species of medicinal fungi were studied to understand why one was better at fighting cancer cells. Researchers analyzed the chemicals, genes, and proteins in both fungi and found that Phylloporia crataegi had much higher levels of cancer-fighting compounds and activated special cellular defense pathways that harm cancer cells. This research shows that medicinal fungi could be promising sources for developing new cancer treatments.

Comparative Multi-Omics Analysis and Antitumor Activity of Phylloporia crataegi and Phylloporia fontanesiae

mycolabadmin

Researchers compared two types of medicinal fungi (Phylloporia crataegi and P. fontanesiae) to understand why one is more effective at fighting cancer. Using advanced molecular analysis techniques, they found that P. crataegi contains higher levels of cancer-fighting compounds and activates more genes related to cancer cell death. These findings suggest that these fungi could be promising sources for developing new cancer treatments.

Metabolomics analysis of mycelial exudates provides insights into fungal antagonists of Armillaria

mycolabadmin

This study examined how two types of honey mushrooms (Armillaria) fight each other when grown together. Researchers found specific chemical markers and metabolic pathways that are activated during this competition. The study identified 156 new compounds produced during co-culture, including 32 with potential antifungal properties. These findings could help understand how mushrooms naturally combat fungal pathogens.

Mushroom Bioactive Molecules as Anticancerous Agents: An Overview

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms contain natural compounds that show promise in fighting cancer by triggering cancer cell death and boosting immune function. Different mushroom species like oyster, shiitake, and button mushrooms contain substances such as beta-glucans and other polysaccharides that have demonstrated anticancer properties in laboratory and animal studies. While these mushroom compounds work through multiple mechanisms including preventing new blood vessel formation to tumors and stopping cancer cell division, more human clinical trials are needed to confirm their effectiveness as cancer treatments.
