Ganoderic Acid in the Treatment of Prostate Cancer [PDF]
Prostate cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the western world. Presently, the most common options for treatment are prostatectomy, radiation and chemotherapy. While certain immunotherapeutics have shown promise in clinical trials, the search for more effective, long-term ...

Increased production of ganoderic acids by overexpression of homologous farnesyl diphosphate synthase and kinetic modeling of ganoderic acid production in Ganoderma lucidum [PDF]
Ganoderic acids (GAs), derived from the medicinal mushroom Ganoderma lucidum, possess anticancer and other important pharmacological activities. To improve production of GAs, a homologous farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPS) gene was overexpressed in G. lucidum.

Ganoderic Acids Prevent Renal Ischemia Reperfusion Injury by Inhibiting Inflammation and Apoptosis [PDF]
Renal ischemia reperfusion injury (RIRI) is one of the main causes of acute kidney injury (AKI), which can lead to acute renal failure. The development of RIRI is so complicated that it involves many factors such as inflammatory response, oxidative stress and cell apoptosis.

Ganoderic acid A attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced lung injury in mice [PDF]
AbstractThe present study aimed to investigate the protective effects of ganoderic acid A (GAA) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury. In mouse model of LPS-induced acute lung injury, we found that GAA led to significantly lower lung wet-to-dry weight ratio and lung myeloperoxidase activity, and attenuated pathological damages.

Biosynthesis of mushroom-derived type II ganoderic acids by engineered yeast
AbstractType II ganoderic acids (GAs) produced by the traditional medicinal mushroom Ganoderma are a group of triterpenoids with superior biological activities. However, challenges in the genetic manipulation of the native producer, low level of accumulation in the farmed mushroom, the vulnerabilities of the farming-based supply chain, and the elusive ...
