Wild Chaga (Inonotus obliquus) modulates inflammation, neural cell survival and inhibits proliferation of cancer cells

open access: yesPharmacological Research - Modern Chinese Medicine, 2023
Background and Aim: Inonotus obliquus (Ach. Ex. Pers), commonly known as Chaga, is a parasitic fungus that grows on birch trees. Indigenous North Americans and Northern Eurasians have used Chaga tea as a folk medicine for centuries, and there are ...

Using longitudinal survival probabilities to test field vigour estimates in sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Tree mortality is a major force driving forest dynamics. To foresters, however, tree mortality is often considered a loss in productivity. To reduce tree mortality, silvicultural systems, such as selection cuts, aim at removing trees that are more likely

Mite communities (Acari: Mesostigmata, Oribatida) in the red belt conk, Fomitopsis pinicola (Polyporales), in Polish forests [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental and Applied Acarology, 2021
AbstractThe fruiting bodies of bracket fungi are a specific microhabitat colonized by various invertebrates of which mites (Acari) are rarely studied, and if they are, the study is usually faunistic. The aim of the research was to determine whether the diversification of mite assemblages (Mesostigmata, Oribatida) inhabiting the fruiting bodies ...

A heart-rot fungus, Inonotus obliquus (chaga), mediates microhabitat creation in birch snags and contributes to forest fungal diversity

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation
Ecological significance of fungi in terrestrial ecosystems is generally acknowledged but the ecological networks mediated by particular fungal species are seldom described.

Supercritical CO2 Extraction of Triterpenoids from Chaga Sterile Conk of Inonotus obliquus

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Triterpenoids are among the bioactive components of Chaga, the sterile conk of the medicinal fungus Inonotus obliquus. Supercritical fluid extraction of Chaga triterpenoids was carried out with supercritical CO2, while a modified Folch method was used as a comparison. Three temperature-pressure combinations were tested varying between 314–324 K (40–50 °

AAA+ protein unfoldases—the Moirai of the proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
AAA+ unfoldases are essential molecular motors that power protein degradation and disaggregation. This review integrates recent cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) structures and single‐molecule biophysical data to reconcile competing models of substrate translocation.
