Extraction Optimization and Bioactivity of Polysaccharides from Ganoderma leucocontextum Spores

Researchers developed an improved method to extract beneficial polysaccharides from Ganoderma leucocontextum (white Ganoderma), a rare mushroom from the Tibetan plateau. The extracted compound GLSP-A1 showed strong anti-inflammatory effects by reducing inflammatory markers and reduced signs of aging in test organisms by decreasing harmful reactive oxygen species and cellular aging pigments. This work suggests the mushroom polysaccharide could potentially be used in dietary supplements to help slow aging.

Melatonin-Producing Microorganisms: A Rising Research Interest in Their Melatonin Biosynthesis and Effects on Crops

Scientists are discovering that certain microorganisms like yeast, algae, and bacteria naturally produce melatonin, the same molecule that helps humans sleep. These melatonin-producing microbes could help farmers grow healthier crops by sharing their melatonin with plants and protecting them from stress like drought and disease. This discovery offers an eco-friendly alternative to synthetic melatonin and could make agriculture more sustainable as climate change poses increasing challenges.

The Major Stilbene Compound Accumulated in the Roots of a Resistant Variety of Phoenix dactylifera L. Activates Proteasome for a Path in Anti-Aging Strategy

Researchers found that date palm roots from disease-resistant varieties contain a special compound called 3,3′,4,5,5′-pentahydroxy-trans-stilbene that acts as a natural antioxidant and anti-aging agent. This compound can protect aging skin cells by activating the proteasome, which is like the cell’s recycling system that removes damaged proteins. The findings suggest this natural compound could potentially help slow down skin aging and protect against age-related diseases.

Evaluation of Salvia yangii Extract as a Promising Protective Raw Material Applied Topically to the Skin

Russian Sage (Salvia yangii) extract shows promise as a natural ingredient for skincare products. The study found that the plant contains compounds like rosmarinic acid that provide antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-aging benefits. When used at appropriate concentrations, the extract protected skin cells from sun damage and helped inhibit enzymes that break down skin collagen. This research supports the use of S. yangii in developing safer, more effective natural cosmetic products.
