Plant and Fungal Polysaccharides in Periodontitis Treatment: Diverse Mechanisms and Therapeutic Roles

mycolabadmin

Periodontitis is a serious gum disease that causes tooth loss and affects overall health. This review examines how polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates) from plants and fungi can help treat periodontitis by reducing inflammation, fighting bacteria, and helping gum tissue repair. These natural compounds work through multiple biological pathways to improve oral health outcomes while avoiding the side effects and resistance problems associated with conventional drugs.

Copper and Zinc-Enriched Mycelium of Agaricus Blazei Murrill: Bioaccumulation and Bioavailability

mycolabadmin

This research explored how mushroom mycelium can be enriched with essential minerals like copper and zinc to create natural nutritional supplements. The study found that the mushroom tissue could effectively accumulate these minerals and make them available for human absorption when consumed. This has important implications for developing natural mineral supplements. Impacts on everyday life: • Provides a natural alternative to synthetic mineral supplements • Offers a new way to address mineral deficiencies through food • Demonstrates how mushrooms can be enhanced to provide better nutrition • Shows potential for developing more effective dietary supplements • Could lead to more sustainable methods of mineral supplementation

The Medicinal Mushroom Agaricus blazei Murrill: Review of Literature and Pharmaco-toxicological Problems

mycolabadmin

This review examines the medicinal mushroom Agaricus blazei Murrill (ABM), which has been traditionally used in Brazil and Japan for various health benefits, particularly for immune system support and cancer treatment. The research shows that ABM contains compounds that can boost immune function and potentially fight cancer cells, though more research is needed to confirm these effects in humans. The mushroom must be used with caution due to potential toxic compounds and contamination risks. Impacts on everyday life: – Provides a natural option for immune system support when properly sourced and prepared – Offers potential complementary therapy for cancer patients, though should only be used under medical supervision – Highlights the importance of quality control in natural supplements – Demonstrates the need for careful evaluation of traditional medicines using modern scientific methods – Emphasizes the balance between potential benefits and risks in natural products

Subcritical Water Extracts from Agaricus blazei Murrill’s Mycelium Inhibit the Expression of Immune Checkpoint Molecules and Axl Receptor

mycolabadmin

This research investigated how extracts from the medicinal mushroom Agaricus blazei Murrill (ABM) could help fight cancer. The scientists found that using hot water under pressure to extract compounds from the mushroom’s root-like structure (mycelium) produced substances that could boost the immune system’s ability to fight cancer cells. This method is safer than traditional chemical extraction methods and could be more practical for large-scale production. Impacts on everyday life: • Provides a safer, more natural approach to cancer treatment • Offers potential for new dietary supplements to support cancer therapy • Demonstrates a more environmentally friendly way to produce medicinal mushroom extracts • Could lead to more affordable cancer treatment options • Shows promise for combining natural products with modern medicine
