A medicinal mushroom: Phellinus linteus.
Phellinus Linteus (Berkeley & M. A. Curtis) Teng (PL) is a medicinal mushroom that has been practiced in oriental countries for centuries to prevent ailments as diverse as gastroenteric dysfunction, diarrhea, haemorrhage and cancers. In an effort to translate the Asian traditional medicines into western-accepted therapies, scientists have demonstrated that the extracts from fruit-bodies or myce...
متن کاملAlleviation of experimental septic shock in mice by acidic polysaccharide isolated from the medicinal mushroom Phellinus linteus.
This study reports that acidic polysaccharide (PL) isolated from Phellinus linteus alleviated the septic shock induced by high dose lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection in mice. To examine the origin of this effect, we investigated cytokine production in serum and the expression of MHC II in B cells and macrophages in areas of inflammation. Pretreatment with PL 24 h before LPS administration resu...
متن کاملPartial characterization and immunostimulatory effect of a novel polysaccharide-protein complex extracted from Phellinus linteus.
Many polysaccharides isolated from mushroom are considered to be biological response modifiers and have been shown to enhance various immune responses in vivo and in vitro. We demonstrate that a novel polysaccharide-protein complex (PPC) extracted from Phellinus linteus was a potent immunomodulator. PPC had a molecular weight of approximately 73 kDa. It was composed of five different monosaccha...
متن کاملNeuraminidase Inhibitors from the Culture Broth of Phellinus linteus
During the search for neuraminidase inhibitors from medicinal fungi, we found that the culture broth of Phellinus linteus exhibited potent inhibitory activity. Solvent partition, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were performed for purification of two active substances from the culture broth. According to (1)H NMR measurements and comparison...
متن کاملPotent Anticancer Effects of Bioactive Mushroom Extracts (Phellinus linteus) on a Variety of Human Cancer Cells
BACKGROUND Although several therapeutic options are currently available for patients with various cancers, the outcomes are often disappointing and a more effective modality needs to be promptly established. We have been exploring an alternative approach using natural agents and two bioactive mushroom extracts isolated from Phellinus linteus (PL), namely PL-ES and PL-I-ES, were of our interest....
