Centesimal Composition, Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant and α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activities of Commercial Edible Oyster Mushrooms at Different Maturity Stages in Northern Thailand

mycolabadmin

This research studied five types of oyster mushrooms grown in Thailand at different stages of maturity. Researchers found that the nutritional content and beneficial compounds in mushrooms change as they grow. Young and middle-stage mushrooms had the highest levels of compounds that fight disease and help manage blood sugar, while fully mature mushrooms had more total nutrients. This information helps farmers decide when to harvest mushrooms based on whether customers want maximum nutrition or maximum health-promoting properties.

Innovative applications and therapeutic potential of oilseeds and their by-products: An eco-friendly and sustainable approach

mycolabadmin

This review explains how leftover materials from oilseed processing, which are usually discarded as waste, contain valuable nutrients and healing compounds. These by-products can be used to make healthier foods like bread, burgers, and drinks, or turned into supplements and medicines. By using these materials instead of wasting them, we can reduce environmental problems, provide better nutrition, and create sustainable food products that help prevent diseases like diabetes and heart problems.

Influence of Culture Conditions on Bioactive Compounds in Cordyceps militaris: A Comprehensive Review

mycolabadmin

Cordyceps militaris is a medicinal fungus used traditionally for treating fatigue, boosting immunity, and managing various health conditions. This comprehensive review explains how different growing methods, nutrients, light, temperature, and substrate materials affect the production of beneficial compounds in the fungus. The findings show that mixing grains with insect materials and using specific light conditions can significantly increase production of cordycepin, the most promising compound for cancer and immune health. The review identifies that more standardized growing methods and better understanding of the fungus’s metabolism are needed to make large-scale production practical and affordable.

Centesimal Composition, Bioactive Compounds, Antioxidant and α-Glucosidase Inhibitory Activities of Commercial Edible Oyster Mushrooms at Different Maturity Stages in Northern Thailand

This study examined how oyster mushrooms change nutritionally and chemically as they mature from young to fully grown. Researchers found that while mature mushrooms have more overall nutrients and starch-like compounds, younger middle-stage mushrooms have higher levels of beneficial antioxidant compounds and special substances that may help manage blood sugar. The findings suggest that when and how you harvest mushrooms matters for what health benefits they provide, helping farmers and food makers decide when to pick mushrooms based on what they want to produce.

Natural Neuroinflammatory Modulators: Therapeutic Potential of Fungi-Derived Compounds in Selected Neurodegenerative Diseases

mycolabadmin

This comprehensive review explores how compounds found in mushrooms could help treat serious brain diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. Mushrooms contain natural substances such as certain carbohydrates, proteins, and fats that can reduce harmful inflammation in the brain and protect nerve cells from damage. Scientists have tested these mushroom-derived compounds in laboratory and animal models, finding they can improve memory, movement, and overall brain function. This research suggests mushrooms could become an important part of new treatments for these currently incurable neurological conditions.

Nontargeted metabonomics analysis of Scorias spongiosa fruiting bodies at different growth stages

mycolabadmin

This study analyzed the chemical composition of Scorias spongiosa, an edible fungus, at different stages of growth using advanced laboratory techniques. Researchers found that the fungus contains beneficial compounds with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and other health-promoting properties. The study recommends harvesting the fungus at its earliest growth stage to preserve the most beneficial compounds for food and nutritional products.

Advances in Fungal Natural Products: Insights into Bioactivity and Therapeutic Potential

mycolabadmin

Medicinal mushrooms and fungi contain powerful natural chemicals that can boost immunity, reduce inflammation, fight cancer, and protect the brain. Scientists are now better able to identify and study these compounds using advanced techniques, and some are being tested as supplements or alongside traditional medicines. This research shows that mushrooms could become important tools in treating diseases like inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer.

Proteins from Edible Mushrooms: Nutritional Role and Contribution to Well-Being

mycolabadmin

Mushrooms are highly nutritious foods containing proteins as complete and high-quality as meat, with unique compounds that boost immunity, fight infections, and may help prevent diseases like cancer and diabetes. Different types of mushroom proteins have specific health benefits, from strengthening immune systems to lowering blood pressure and fighting viruses. Scientists are finding new ways to grow mushrooms and extract their proteins for use in sports nutrition, medicines, and fortified foods, making them increasingly valuable for human health and sustainability.

Bibliometric, taxonomic, and medicinal perspectives of Ganoderma neo-japonicum Imazeki: A mini review

mycolabadmin

Ganoderma neo-japonicum, known as purple Lingzhi, is a mushroom traditionally used by indigenous communities in Malaysia and other Asian countries to treat various health conditions. This review examines 36 scientific studies published between 1991 and 2021, showing that the mushroom contains special compounds that can fight cancer cells, lower blood sugar, reduce inflammation, and boost immunity. While laboratory studies show promising results, the mushroom still needs more clinical testing in humans before it can be widely used as a medicine.
