چکیده
Among the lipophilic extracts of seven traditional edible mushrooms, the acetone extract of Sarcodon aspratus markedly inhibited the growth of HL60 human leukemia cells and induced apoptosis after 24 h incubation. The major active component was identified as ergosterol peroxide by NMR and ESI-MS analysis. Ergosterol peroxide completely inhibited growth and induced apoptosis of HL60 cells at a concentration of 25 microM.

Isolation and biological activities of polysaccharide fractions from mycelium of Sarcodon imbricatus L. P. Karst. (Basidiomycota) cultured in vitro.
About 200 species of fungi called as ìmedicinal mushroomsî containing biologically activity substances, are currently known (1, 2). The greatest interest in mycochemistry is focused on polysaccharides, e.g., β-glucans, due to their immunomodulating, anti-inflammatory and anticancer properties. Some of them possess antibacterial and antiviral activity. These compounds have been isolated from fru...
متن کاملTenderization of Bovine Longissimus Dorsi Muscle using Aqueous Extract from Sarcodon aspratus
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of aqueous extract from Sarcodon aspratus on tenderization of the bovine longissimus dorsi muscles in comparison with commercial proteolytic enzymes. Furthermore, meat quality and muscle protein degradation were examined. We marinated meat with 2% Sarcodon aspratus extract, 2% kiwi extract, and 0.2% papain. Beef chunks (3×3×3 cm(3)) were mari...
متن کاملA novel polysaccharide from the Sarcodon aspratus triggers apoptosis in Hela cells via induction of mitochondrial dysfunction
Background Polysaccharides extracted from fungus that have been used widely in the food and drugs industries due to biological activities. Objective The objective of the present study was to investigate the tumor-suppressive activity and mechanism of a novel polysaccharide (SAP) extracted from Sarcodon aspratus. Methods The SAP was extracted and purified using Sepharose CL-4B gel from S. as...
متن کاملEffect of Chitosan Acetate on Bacteria Occurring on Neungee Mushrooms, Sarcodon aspratus
Minimal growth inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of chitosan acetate (M.W. 60 kDa) on heterotrophic bacteria (strains MK1, S, and R) isolated from the soft-rotten tissues of Neungee mushroom (Sarcodon aspratus) were measured. The slimy substance produced by the MK1 strain was responsible for the diseased mushroom's appearance. The S and R strains were members of the Burkholderia cepacia complex....
متن کاملErgosterol Peroxide Isolated from Ganoderma lucidum Abolishes MicroRNA miR-378-Mediated Tumor Cells on Chemoresistance
Due to an altered expression of oncogenic factors and tumor suppressors, aggressive cancer cells have an intrinsic or acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. This typically contributes to cancer recurrence after chemotherapy. microRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that are involved in both cell self-renewal and cancer development. Here we report that tumor cells transfected with miR-378 ac...
