Cordyceps sinensis (CS) Alleviates Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Symptoms (COPD) by Targeting Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Oxidative Stress Through Ingredient-Gene-Disease Interaction. [PDF]
Our findings indicate that Cordyceps Sinensis (CS) alleviates COPD symptoms by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress, with key biomarkers such as interleukins (ILs), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) identified. Activating autophagy serves as a protective mechanism against COPD development induced by oxidative stress.

Antiaging effect of Cordyceps sinensis extract [PDF]
AbstractThis experiment studied the effect of Cordyceps sinensis extract (CSE) on mice aged by d‐galactose and castrated rats to analyse its antiaging effect. Water maze and step‐down type avoidance tests were used to examine the effect of CSE on learning and memory.
