Medicinal Mushrooms: Bioactive Compounds, Use, and Clinical Trials

mycolabadmin

This comprehensive review examines how medicinal mushrooms contain natural compounds that can boost immune function, fight cancer cells, reduce inflammation, and protect nerve cells. Different mushroom species like reishi, shiitake, and maitake contain various active substances such as beta-glucans and triterpenes that work through multiple biological pathways. While laboratory and animal studies show promising results, more human clinical trials are needed to confirm effectiveness and establish safe dosing guidelines.

Sea buckthorn bioactive metabolites and their pharmacological potential in digestive diseases

mycolabadmin

Sea buckthorn is an ancient medicinal plant containing hundreds of bioactive compounds that show promise in treating digestive diseases like stomach ulcers, colitis, and liver problems. This comprehensive review of 85 scientific studies found that sea buckthorn’s active ingredients work through multiple mechanisms including reducing inflammation, fighting harmful bacteria, protecting the intestinal lining, and balancing gut bacteria. The research suggests sea buckthorn could become a valuable natural supplement for digestive health, though more clinical trials are needed to confirm optimal doses and long-term effectiveness in humans.

Melanin from edible mushrooms like black wood ear and reishi offers a natural, sustainable alternative to synthetic melanins with impressive health benefits. These mushroom melanins demonstrate powerful antioxidant and antibacterial properties, protect against radiation damage, and can help maintain liver health. New extraction methods using special solvents are making it easier to obtain pure melanin from mushrooms efficiently, opening doors for its use in food, cosmetics, and medicines.

The Effect of Natural-Based Formulation (NBF) on the Response of RAW264.7 Macrophages to LPS as an In Vitro Model of Inflammation

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested a natural mixture of five medicinal mushrooms combined with cannabidiol (CBD) on immune cells exposed to bacterial endotoxins. The formulation effectively reduced inflammatory response markers without harming the cells. These findings suggest the mixture could potentially be used to treat inflammatory conditions like asthma and arthritis, though more research is needed.

Harnessing the Nutritional Value, Therapeutic Applications, and Environmental Impact of Mushrooms

Mushrooms are nutritious superfoods packed with protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals that support overall health. They contain special compounds that can fight inflammation, boost immunity, and help prevent serious diseases like cancer and diabetes. Beyond eating them, mushrooms are being used to make medicines, cosmetics, and animal feed, while also helping clean up polluted environments. Regular consumption of mushrooms offers significant health benefits and can be a valuable addition to any healthy diet.

Fatal Pneumonia Caused by Beauveria bassiana in a Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle (Lepidochelys kempii, Garman, 1880) on the Portuguese Coast: Case Report and Review of Beauveria spp. Infections in Reptiles

mycolabadmin

A young Kemp’s ridley sea turtle, one of the world’s most endangered turtle species, was found off the coast of Portugal and brought to a rehabilitation center. Despite intensive care, the turtle died after 11 days due to a severe fungal lung infection caused by Beauveria bassiana, a fungus that normally infects insects. This case highlights how endangered animals in poor health are vulnerable to opportunistic infections and emphasizes the importance of including fungal disease screening in wildlife rehabilitation programs.
