Ergothioneine: An Antioxidative, Neuroprotective and Anti-Inflammatory Compound from Mushroom Residuals

mycolabadmin

Ergothioneine is a powerful antioxidant found mainly in mushrooms that protects brain health and reduces inflammation. Mushroom processing creates large amounts of waste like stems and leftover substrate that actually contain high levels of this beneficial compound. Scientists have developed sustainable methods to extract ergothioneine from this waste, creating opportunities for new health supplements and functional foods while reducing waste and supporting environmental sustainability.

High Efficiency In Vitro Wound Healing of Dictyophora indusiata Extracts via Anti-Inflammatory and Collagen Stimulating (MMP-2 Inhibition) Mechanisms

mycolabadmin

This study examines bamboo mushroom extracts for their ability to promote skin wound healing. Researchers tested three different parts of immature bamboo mushrooms and found that the core extract was particularly effective at reducing inflammation and preventing excessive collagen breakdown, which helps wounds heal properly without excessive scarring. The extract performed as well as or better than standard pharmaceutical agents, suggesting it could be a promising natural ingredient for wound healing products.
