Can Ganoderma Triterpenoids Exert Immunogenic Cell Death in Human Cancer Cells? A Systematic Review and Protein Network Analysis

This review examines whether compounds from medicinal mushrooms called Ganoderma can help the body’s immune system fight cancer more effectively. Researchers analyzed 69 scientific studies and found that Ganoderma compounds cause cancer cells to die and trigger immune-activating signals. While these results are promising, more experiments are needed to prove whether these mushroom compounds actually activate the specific immune pathways required for long-term cancer control.

Recent Advances in the Use of Ganoderma lucidum and Coriolus versicolor Mushrooms to Enhance the Anticancer Efficacy of EGFR-Targeted Drugs in Lung Cancer

This review explores how two medicinal mushrooms traditionally used in Asian medicine—Lingzhi and Yunzhi—can enhance the effectiveness of lung cancer drugs (EGFR-TKIs) and help overcome drug resistance. These mushrooms contain special compounds that can fight cancer in multiple ways, boost the immune system, and reduce side effects. The research suggests that combining these mushrooms with standard cancer treatments may improve outcomes for lung cancer patients.
