Extraction Optimization and Bioactivity of Polysaccharides from Ganoderma leucocontextum Spores

Researchers developed an improved method to extract beneficial polysaccharides from Ganoderma leucocontextum (white Ganoderma), a rare mushroom from the Tibetan plateau. The extracted compound GLSP-A1 showed strong anti-inflammatory effects by reducing inflammatory markers and reduced signs of aging in test organisms by decreasing harmful reactive oxygen species and cellular aging pigments. This work suggests the mushroom polysaccharide could potentially be used in dietary supplements to help slow aging.

Insights into the evolution and mechanisms of response to heat stress by whole genome sequencing and comparative proteomics analysis of the domesticated edible mushroom Lepista sordida

Researchers sequenced the complete genome of Lepista sordida, a delicious edible mushroom valued for its health benefits, and studied how this mushroom responds to heat stress at the molecular level. Using advanced analysis techniques, they identified key proteins and signaling pathways that help the mushroom survive high temperatures. These findings can help farmers develop better-performing strains that are more resistant to heat, improving mushroom production.
