Structural Elucidation of Heteropolysaccharides from the Peach-Shaped Dictyophora indusiata and Its Anti-Inflammatory Activity

Researchers extracted polysaccharides from peach-shaped bamboo fungus (Dictyophora indusiata) and discovered they contain beneficial beta-glucans. When tested on human immune cells triggered to become inflamed, these polysaccharides reduced inflammatory markers and messenger proteins. The compounds were found to be chemically stable under various conditions, suggesting potential use as a natural anti-inflammatory supplement or food ingredient.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Solanum tuberosum L. Polysaccharide and Its Limited Gene Expression Profile

Researchers studied a natural compound from potatoes called STP that reduces inflammation in the body. Using laboratory cells and animal models, they found that STP works similarly to the common pain reliever ibuprofen by reducing inflammatory chemicals and activating the body’s protective defense systems. This discovery suggests that potato-based polysaccharides could be developed into new treatments for inflammatory diseases and conditions related to oxidative stress.

The Effect of Combined Treatment of Psilocybin and Eugenol on Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Brain Inflammation in Mice

This study tested whether psilocybin (an active compound from magic mushrooms) combined with eugenol (a natural compound from cloves) could reduce brain inflammation in mice. Researchers gave mice a substance that triggers inflammation in the brain and then treated them with these compounds before or after the inflammation started. The combination treatment, especially at a 1:50 ratio of psilocybin to eugenol, significantly reduced multiple inflammatory markers in the brain, suggesting this combination could potentially be helpful for treating brain inflammation-related conditions.
