Abstract
Dongchunghacho (Dong-Chong-Xia-Cho in Chinese) is one of entomogenous fungi that grow as parasites mainly to pupae or larvae. It includes many different genera such as Cordyceps, Paecilomyces, Torrubiella and Podonectria. The ethanolic extract of Cordyceps scarabaeicola, prepared from its fruiting bodies, showed significant inhibitory activity on angiogensis, which was detected by chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay. The ethanolic extract of media-cultured Paecilomyces japonica also showed significant anti-angiogenic activity in CAM assay. (omitted)
