A Novel Erinacine S Derivative from Hericium erinaceus Overcomes Chemoresistance in Colorectal Cancer Cells by Enhancing TRAIL/TNFR1/DR5 Expression through Histone Acetylation

This study shows that erinacine S, a natural compound from Lion’s Mane mushrooms, can help overcome drug resistance in colorectal cancer cells. The compound works by activating pathways that trigger cancer cell death and by modifying how genes are expressed at the molecular level. In both laboratory experiments and animal models, erinacine S successfully stopped tumor growth and killed resistant cancer cells, suggesting it could be a promising natural treatment for patients with hard-to-treat colorectal cancer.

A Novel Erinacine S Derivative from Hericium erinaceus Overcomes Chemoresistance in Colorectal Cancer Cells by Enhancing TRAIL/TNFR1/DR5 Expression through Histone Acetylation

Researchers found that erinacine S, a compound from Lion’s Mane mushroom, can help kill colorectal cancer cells that have become resistant to chemotherapy drugs. The compound works by activating death pathways in cancer cells and modifying how genes are expressed. In mouse studies, erinacine S significantly reduced tumor growth compared to standard chemotherapy alone. This suggests Lion’s Mane mushroom derivatives could potentially be developed as a natural treatment option for patients with drug-resistant colorectal cancer.
