Poria cocos: traditional uses, triterpenoid components and their renoprotective pharmacology. [PDF]
Poria cocos and its surface layer of Poria cocos (Schw.) Wolf (Polyporaceae), are used in traditional Chinese medicine for its diuretic and renoprotective effects. Phytochemical studies have shown that lanostane and 3,4-seco-lanostane tetracyclic triterpenoids are the main components of P. cocos and its surface layer.
