In vitro antitumor effects of methanolic extracts of three Ganoderma mushrooms

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.

Synergistic potential and apoptosis induction of Bunium persicum essential oil and its pure components, cuminaldehyde and γ-terpinene, in combination with fluconazole on Candida albicans isolates: in vitro and in silico evaluation

Researchers studied how Bunium persicum essential oil and two of its active components work together with the antifungal drug fluconazole to fight resistant Candida yeast infections. They found that cuminaldehyde, one of the oil’s main components, was particularly effective when combined with fluconazole and could trigger yeast cell death. These natural compounds could offer a promising new approach to treating fungal infections that have become resistant to standard medications.

Synergistic potential and apoptosis induction of Bunium persicum essential oil and its pure components, cuminaldehyde and γ-terpinene, in combination with fluconazole on Candida albicans isolates: in vitro and in silico evaluation

Researchers tested how Bunium persicum essential oil and its components work alongside the antifungal drug fluconazole against Candida albicans infections. Cuminaldehyde, a major component of the oil, showed the strongest effects when combined with fluconazole, making infection-causing cells die faster than each substance alone. This combination approach could help overcome drug-resistant fungal infections and offers a promising natural alternative to synthetic drugs alone.
