본 연구에서는 맛버섯의 자실체로부터 메탄올과 열수를 이용하여 추출한 물질의 항산화와 항염증 효과를 탐색하였다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능과 환원력을 이용해 항산화 효과를 측정한 결과 양성대조군으로 사용한 BHT나 토코페롤에 비해 낮았지만 다른 종류의 버섯에 비해 효과가 우수한 것을 확인하였다. 금속이온 제거 항산화 실험에서는 맛버섯의 메탄올 추출물의 효과가 양성대조군인 BHT나 토코페롤에 비해 월등하게 높아서 맛버섯의 자실체 추출물은 높은 항산화 효과를 지닌 것으로 나타났다. 맛버섯의 항염증 저해 효과 실험에서는 RAW 264.7 대식세포가 배양되고 있는 배지에 맛버섯 자실체의 메탄올 및 열수 추출물로 각각 전 처리 한 후 염증매개 물질인 LPS를 투여하여 맛 버섯 추출물의 NO 생성 저해효과를 조사하였다. 실험 결과, 첨가된 맛버섯 추출물의 농도가 증가함에 따라 생성된 NO의 양이 현저하게 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 맛버섯의 추출물이 carrageenan에 의해 흰쥐 뒷발에 유도된 부종 저해 실험에서는 투여한 맛버섯의 추출물 농도가 증가함에 따라 흰쥐의 뒷발에 유도된 부종의 용적이 농도 의존적으로 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 맛버섯 자실체에 함유된 항산화 및 항염증 물질은 천연 항산화제나 항염증제로 이용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구에서는 느타리버섯의 생육단계별 미생물 군집을 species수준에서 조사하였다. 살균전 배지에서는 그람 양성균이 우점하였다. 반면 배양완료 배지, 수확 후 배지, 그리고 자실체에서는 그람 음성균이 우점하였다. 미생물의 다양성을 확인한 결과 살균 전 배지가 다른 생육단계에 비해 다양한 미생물을 포함하고 있는 것을 확인하였으며, 배양완료배지, 자실체, 수확 후 배지의 순서로 다양성이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 미생물의 유사도분석을 한 결과 배양완료배지와 수확 후 배지가 유사한 미생물군집을 보이는 것을 확인하였고, 자실체의 경우 일부 유사성을 보이지만 전반적으로는 차이를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과를 토대로 확인하였을 때 살균과정을 거치지 않은 살균 전 배지에서는 검출되지 않은 Pseudomonas tolaasii가 살균 과정을 거친 배양완료배지, 수확후 배지에서 검출된 것으로 보아 살균 이후 접종 혹은 배양하는 과정에서 미생물이 유입하였을 것으로 추정된다. 또한 유해균이 유입되었지만 병징이 나타나지 않은 것은 유해균을 억제하는 유익균의 존재와 병징을 일으키는 농도보다 낮은 것의 영향으로 추정된다. 앞으로, 유해균이 유입되었지만 병징이 나타나지 않은 원인과 기작에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

This work was conducted to investigate dietary supplementation of oyster mushroom fruiting bodies on biochemical and histological changes in hyper and normocholesterolemic rats. Six-week old female Sprague-Dawley albino rats were divided into three groups of 10 rats each. Feeding a diet containing a 5% powder of Pleurotus ostreatus fruiting bodies to hypercholesterolemic rats reduced plasma total cholesterol, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total lipid, phospholipids, and LDL/high-density lipoprotein ratio by 30.18, 52.75, 59.62, 34.15, 23.89, and 50%, respectively. Feeding oyster mushrooms also significantly reduced body weight in hypercholesterolemic rats. However, it had no adverse effects on plasma albumin, total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, creatinin, blood urea nitrogen, uric acid, glucose, total protein, calcium, sodium, potassium, chloride, inorganic phosphate, magnesium, or enzyme profiles. Feeding mushroom increased total lipid and cholesterol excretion in feces. The plasma lipoprotein fraction, separated by agarose gel electrophoresis, indicated that P. ostreatus significantly reduced plasma ${\beta}$ and pre-${\beta}$-lipoprotein but increased ${\alpha}$-lipoprotein. A histological study of hepatic cells by conventional hematoxylin-eosin and oil red O staining revealed normal findings for mushroom-fed hypercholesterolemic rats. These results suggest that a 5% P. ostreatus diet supplement provided health benefits by acting on the atherogenic lipid profile in hypercholesterolemic rats.

An antiproliferative ribonuclease with a new N-terminal sequence was purified from fruiting bodies of the edible wild mushroom Russula delica in this study. This novel ribonuclease was unadsorbed on DEAE-cellulose, but absorbed on SP-Sepharose and Q-Sepharose. It had a molecular mass of 14 kDa, as judged by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75 and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Its optimal pH and optimal temperature were pH 5 and $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The ranking of its activity toward various polyhomoribonucleotides was poly C> poly G>poly A>poly U. It could inhibit proliferation of HepG2 and MCF-7 cancer cells with an $IC_50$ value of $8.6\;{\mu}M$ and $7.2\;{\mu}M$, respectively. It was devoid of antifungal and HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitory activity.

Twelve triterpenoids (1 - 12) were isolated from $CHCl_3$-soluble fraction of fruiting bodies of Ganoderma lucidum. Extensive spectroscopic and chemical studies established the structures of these compounds as butyl lucidenate P (1), butyl lucidenate $E_2$ (2), butyl lucidenate $D_2$ (3), butyl lucidenate Q (4), ganoderiol F (5), methyl ganoderate H (6), methyl ganoderate J (7), lucidumol B (8), ganodermanondiol (9), methyl lucidenate N (10), methyl lucidenate A (11) and butyl lucidenate N (12). All of the compounds were examined for their cytotoxic activity against HL-60, HeLa, and MCF-7 cancer cell lines. Among them, compounds 4 and 8 showed cytotoxic activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 6.6 and 1.6 ${\mu}M$ against HL-60, respectively. In addition, compound 8 also showed cytotoxic activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 2.0 ${\mu}M$ against HeLa cancer cell line, other compounds were moderate or inactive.

Metallothioneins are a class of small cysteine-rich proteins that have been associated with increased tolerance to metal and oxidative stresses in animals, plants, and fungi. We investigated a metallothionein-like (mt-like) gene shown previously to be upregulated in fruiting bodies of the fungus Agaricus bisporus in response to post-harvest storage. Analysis of an A. bisporus genomic DNA cosmid library identified two similar mt-like genes (met1 and met2) arranged as a bidirectional gene pair transcribed from the same promoter region. The promoter contained regulatory elements including 9 metal responsive elements and a CAAT box region 220 bp downstream of met1 that showed striking similarity to a feature in Coprinopsis cinerea mt-like gene promoters. Transcriptional analysis showed that both met genes are significantly and rapidly (within 3 hours) upregulated during post-harvest storage and expression is significantly greater in stipe and cap tissues compared with the gills. However, a strong directionality of the promoter was demonstrated, as transcript levels of met1 were at least two orders of magnitude greater than those of met2 in all samples tested.

Chemical investigation of the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma tropicum led to the isolation of two new phenolic compounds, ganodermatropins A (1) and B (2). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic techniques (MS, 1D and 2D NMR). Ganodermatropin A exhibited antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.

Bioassay-guided fractionation of the $CHCl_3$-soluble fraction of a MeOH extract of the fruiting bodies of Hygrophorus russula led to the isolation of five ergosterol derivatives (1 - 5). The structures of these compounds were identified as ergosterol peroxide (1), ergosta-4,6,8(14),22-tetraen-3-one (2), ergosta-7,22-diene-3${\beta}$,5${\alpha}$,6${\alpha}$-triol (3), ergosta-7,22-diene-3${\beta}$,5${\alpha}$,6${\beta}$,9${\alpha}$-tetraol (4), and 5${\alpha}$,6${\alpha}$-epoxy-ergosta-8(14),22-diene-3${\beta}$,7${\alpha}$-diol (5) by comparing their physicochemical and spectral data with those in the literature. These compounds were evaluated for in vitro cytotoxicity against A549 and XF498 cancer cell lines. Most of the tested compounds, except for compound 3, exhibited moderate cytotoxicity against both A549 and XF498 cell lines with $IC_{50}$ values ranging from 10.2 to 18.3 ${\mu}g/ml$ and from 11.4 to 24.6 ${\mu}g/ml$, respectively.

Hypolipidemic effect of biopolymers extracted from culture broth (CP), mycelia (MP), and fruiting bodies (FP) of Auricularia auricula-judae was investigated in dietary-induced hyperlipidemic rats. The experimental animals were administrated (100 mg/kg body weight) with different biopolymers, daily for 4 weeks. Hypolipidemic effects were achieved in all the experimental groups, however, FP was proved to be the most potent one. The administration of the FP reduced the plasma triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and atherogenic index by 24.3, 28.5, 36.4, and 40.9%, respectively, while increased the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level (9.0%), when compared to the saline (control) administered group.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate applicability of food waste compost (FWC) as a substrate for cultivation of Ganoderma lucidum, Lentinula edodes, and Pholiota adipose, and to determine contents of Ca, Mg, Na, and K in fruiting bodies (FB). FB yield per substrate in FWC-free controls was $53{\pm}4g/kg$ for G. lucidum, $270{\pm}90g/kg$ for L. edodes, and $1,430{\pm}355g/kg$ for P. adipose. Substrates supplemented with FWC showed the highest FB production at FWC content of 10% for G. lucidum ($64{\pm}6g/kg$), and 13% for L. edodes ($665{\pm}110g/kg$) and P. adipose ($2,345{\pm}395g/kg$), which were 1.2~2.5 times higher than the values for the controls. P. adipose contained higher amounts of mineral elements than the other species. Ca, Mg, Na, and K content in FB did not show a significant relation to FWC content.
