Cellular Immune Function Chemistry

Fungal metabolites have major immunomodulating effects.

Polysaccharide-K, also known as PSK, is a proteoglycan found in several medicinal mushrooms. The results obtained from a large number of published scientific studies and clinical trials show that PSK is a powerful immunomodulator capable of stimulating diverse immunological functions.

September 2014 - An Enzyme In Various Fungi Helps Combat Gram-Negative Bacteria

A group of hybrid strains of fungi shows that it has the enzyme that is an efficient inhibitor of several types of gram-negative bacteria called: metallo - β -lactamases, including New Delhi metallo-B-lactamase-1 (NDM-1). Several patients at research hospitals with severe infectious were not able to fight against an infection with antibiotics. They had very little hope of survival.

General Chemistry of Medicinal Mushrooms

The mushrooms are a class of fungi which possesses a wide variety of functional chemistry. Fungi live via an extra cellular life process. The mushrooms exude protein catalysts which digest the foods around it. The digestion is then transported back into the fungal cell for use. Because of this feeding method, mushrooms possess a large amount of Enzymes.(8-12)
