Corrigendum: Compounds purified from edible fungi fight against chronic inflammation through oxidative stress regulation

This article is a correction to a previous study about beneficial compounds found in edible mushrooms. The study examined how various mushroom-derived substances like polysaccharides and peptides can combat chronic inflammation by reducing oxidative stress in the body. Multiple mushroom species were analyzed for their antioxidant properties and mechanisms of action. The corrections ensure proper citation of the original research sources while maintaining the core scientific findings.

Exploring the Antifungal Potential of Lawsone-Loaded Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Against Candida albicans and Candida glabrata: Growth Inhibition and Biofilm Disruption

Researchers developed a new antifungal treatment by loading lawsone (a compound from henna plants) into tiny particles called mesoporous silica nanoparticles. When tested against common fungal infections caused by Candida bacteria, this nano-formulation was more effective than lawsone alone at killing the fungi and breaking down protective biofilm structures. The treatment showed no harm to normal human cells, suggesting it could be a promising natural alternative to treat stubborn fungal infections that resist current antifungal drugs.
