Biphasic Fermentation of Trapa bispinosa Shells by Ganoderma sinense and Characterization of Its Polysaccharides and Alcoholic Extract and Analysis of Their Bioactivity

mycolabadmin

This study investigated fermenting water chestnut shells with a medicinal mushroom called Ganoderma sinense to create a more potent health product. Under optimal fermentation conditions, the resulting material showed significantly improved immune-boosting and antioxidant properties when tested in laboratory cells. The fermentation process changed the structure of polysaccharides and increased beneficial compounds, potentially transforming agricultural waste into a valuable functional food or supplement.

Ganoderic Acid A targeting leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 involved in Parkinson’s disease–A computational study

mycolabadmin

Researchers used computer modeling to test five compounds from Reishi mushrooms against a protein called LRRK2 that is linked to Parkinson’s disease. Ganoderic Acid A showed the strongest binding to this target protein and could potentially be developed into a treatment. The findings suggest that Reishi mushroom compounds may help protect brain cells from the degeneration seen in Parkinson’s disease and warrant further laboratory and animal testing.

Identification of potential neuroprotective compound from Ganoderma lucidum extract targeting microtubule affinity regulation kinase 4 involved in Alzheimer’s disease through molecular dynamics simulation and MMGBSA

mycolabadmin

Researchers used computer simulations to test five compounds from Reishi mushrooms against Alzheimer’s disease. They found that two compounds, ganoderic acid A and ganoderenic acid B, showed strong potential for blocking a harmful protein involved in the disease. These findings suggest Reishi mushrooms could be a source for new Alzheimer’s treatments, though further laboratory testing is needed.
