New Polysaccharides: Characterization and Anticomplementary Activity of Mycelium Polymers.

is a small genus of xylotrophic basidiomycetes and a source of bioactive fungochemicals among which a special place is occupied by polymeric compounds. In this study, polysaccharides that are widespread in Europe, Asia, and North America and a poorly understood fungal species, (Pers.) Karst.

Antitumor Properties of Aqueous Extracts from Inonotus rheades Mycelium and Their Evaluation under Various Cultivation Conditions.

The antitumor properties of aqueous extracts of Inonotus rheades basidiomycete mushrooms were evaluated when the fungi were cultured on wood discs and wood shavings (birch) at 25 ± 1°C in the dark and under constant illumination with blue light (12.8 W/m). The aqueous fraction containing water-soluble polysaccharides was isolated and analyzed: WS-5 fraction cultured on wood discs under blue light illumination, WS-8 fraction grown under similar conditions on wood shavings; WS-6 fraction grown in the dark on wood discs; and WS-7 fraction grown under similar conditions on wood shavings.

Antioxidant Activity of Styrylpyrones from Inonotus rheades (Agaricomycetes) Mycelium under Oxidative Stress in Thellungiella salsuginea Cell Suspension Culture.

This study examined effects of the styrylpyrone fraction from mycelium of hymenochaetoid species, Inonotus rheades (Agaricomycetes), on reactive oxygen species inhibition in Thellungiella salsuginea cell culture under oxidative stress. We identified antioxidant effects of styrylpyrones from I. rheades mycelium on oxidative stress in T.

Phenolic Compounds of Inonotus rheades (Agaricomycetes) Mycelium: RP-UPLC-DAD-ESI/MS Profile and Effect of Light Wavelength on Styrylpyrone Content.

The phenolic compounds of Inonotus rheades (Pers.) Bondartsev and Singer (Hymenochaetaceae), a typical xylotrophic basidiomycete, and accumulation of styrylpyrones in mycelium under the influence of light of different wavelengths were investigated. Six styrylpyrones (cis- and trans-hispidin, cis- and trans-bisnoryangonin, and phellinins A1 and A2) and 5 bis(styrylpyrones) (3,14'-bishispidinyl, hypholomin B, 3-bisnoryangonyl-14'-hispidin, 1,1-distyrylpyrylethane, and rheadinin) were detected in the extract of I.
