Antimelanoma effect of a fucoxylomannan isolated from Ganoderma lucidum fruiting bodies
Carbohydrate Polymers 294 (2022) 119823
 

A fucoxylomannan (FXM) was isolated from the mushroom Ganoderma lucidum through alkaline extraction followed by dialysis, freeze-thawing, and fractionation by Fehling's solution. The main chain of FXM presented α-D-Manp-(1→4)-linked units, and some of them were branched at O-6 position by α-L-Fucp-(1→2)-β-D-Xylp groups. Its Mw was 35.9 kDa. FXM was tested on melanoma B16-F10 cells and it showed cell viability and cell density reduction, as well as antiproliferative effect, through cell cycle arrest. Additionally, the anchorage-independent clonogenic capacity of such cells was significantly reduced by FXM, decreasing the number of cells by colony and the colonies area. No effect on viability neither in proliferation of non-tumoral Balb c/3T3 fibroblasts was observed. These results indicate that FXM is a promising anti-proliferative compound impairing pivotal tumorigenic mechanisms, eliciting this polysaccharide to be further explored as an antimelanoma drug.

Structure, function and mechanism of edible fungus polysaccharides in human beings chronic diseases
Food Science and Technology (Brazil) 43 (2023) e111022
 

The feasibility of human nutritional supplementation is imperative. As a part of daily diet, edible fungus polysaccharides have a variety of health promoting effects, especially for the prevention of chronic diseases. Based on the extensive collection and collation of relevant research datas, the beneficial effects of edible fungus polysaccharides on various chronic diseases were analyzed, and the structure and functional mechanism of edible fungus polysaccharides with anti-chronic disease properties were summarized in this current review. Based on a comprehensive analysis of the current researchs on edible fungus polysaccharides, it was considered that edible fungus polysaccharides can be used as the material basis of anti-chronic disease drugs. In addition, the relevant contents can also provide some reference for the selection and development of anti-chronic disease drugs.
