In vitro antitumor effects of methanolic extracts of three Ganoderma mushrooms

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested extracts from three types of medicinal mushrooms (Ganoderma) against cancer cells in laboratory tests. They found that one species was particularly effective against liver cancer cells, while two other species worked well against breast cancer cells. The extracts killed cancer cells while being much less harmful to normal cells, suggesting they could potentially be developed into new cancer treatments.

Anticancer Activity of Demethylincisterol A3 and Related Incisterol-Type Fungal Products

mycolabadmin

This review examines a special group of fungal compounds called incisterols, with focus on demethylincisterol A3 (DM-A3), which shows promise as a cancer-fighting agent. DM-A3 works through multiple mechanisms: it blocks cancer cell growth pathways, inhibits specific cancer-promoting proteins, and has anti-inflammatory effects. The compound has shown strong activity against various cancer types in laboratory and animal studies, making it a candidate for further development as a potential cancer therapy.
