Published: April 9, 2025

Hericium erinaceus, commonly known as lion’s mane mushroom, has gained increasing scientific interest due to its rich composition of bioactive compounds and diverse health-promoting properties. This narrative review provides a comprehensive overview the nutritional therapeutic potential H. with particular focus on anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial activities. A structured literature search was performed using databases such PubMed, Scopus, Science Direct, Web Science, Google Scholar. Studies published in last two decades focusing erinaceus’ were included. The chemical erinaceus includes polysaccharides, terpenoids (hericenones erinacines), phenolic compounds, which exhibit potent antioxidant effects by scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) inducing endogenous enzymes. Additionally, shows promising activity against bacterial fungal pathogens, applications combating antibiotic-resistant infections. mushroom’s capacity stimulate nerve growth factor (NGF) synthesis highlighted preventing managing neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer’s Parkinson’s. Advances biotechnological methods, including optimized cultivation techniques novel extraction may further enhance bioavailability pharmacological erinaceus. Despite findings, clinical validation remains limited. Future research should prioritize large-scale trials, standardization elucidation pharmacokinetics facilitate integration into evidence-based medicine. functional food, nutraceutical, adjunct agent highlights need for interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers, clinicians, regulatory bodies.

Higher-fungi xylotrophic basidiomycetes are known to be the reservoirs of bioactive metabolites. Currently, a great deal attention has been paid exploitation mycelial fungi products as an innovative alternative in crop protection. No data exist on mechanisms behind interaction between mushrooms’ glycopolymeric substances and plants. In this study, effects basidiomycete metabolites morphophysiological biochemical variables wheat plants have explored. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Saratovskaya 29) seedlings were treated with extracellular polysaccharides (EPSs) isolated from submerged cultures twenty strains assigned 13 species 8 genera. The EPS solutions at final concentrations 15, 40, 80 mg/L applied followed by their growth for 10 days. plant samples, biomass, length coleoptile, shoot root, root number, rate lipid peroxidation malondialdehyde concentration, content hydrogen peroxide, total phenols measured. peroxidase superoxide dismutase activity defined. Most preparations improved biomass yields, well morphological parameters examined. application enhanced activities antioxidant enzymes decreased oxidative damage lipids. Judging its overall effect indices redox system plants, concentration 40 shown most beneficial compared other concentrations. This study proves that novel bioformulations based mushroom EPSs can developed effective antioxidative response. Phytostimulating properties found give grounds consider produced active component capable inducing responses stress.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen that usually causes chronic infections and even death in patients. The treatment of P. infection has become more challenging due to the prevalence antibiotic resistance slow pace new development. Therefore, it essential explore non-antibiotic methods. A strategy involves screening for drugs target quorum-sensing (QS) system. QS system regulates drug aeruginosa. In this study, veratryl alcohol (VA) was found as effective inhibitor (QSI). It effectively suppressed expression QS-related genes subsequent production virulence factors under control including elastase, protease, pyocyanin rhamnolipid at sub-inhibitory concentrations. addition, motility activity biofilm formation, which were correlated with aeruginosa, also by VA. vivo experiments demonstrated VA could weaken pathogenicity Chinese cabbage, Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans models.

The prevalence of antimicrobial resistance reduces the effectiveness drugs in prevention and treatment infectious diseases caused by pathogens such as bacteria, fungi, viruses. Microbial secondary metabolites have been recognized important sources for new drug discovery development, yielding a wide range structurally novel functionally diverse variety that are considered good producers drugs. Bacteria produce compounds, thus, antibiotics derived from natural products still dominate over purely synthetic among developed introduced last four decades. Among them, Pseudomonas aeruginosa constitute richly source substances with activity. Therefore, they regarded an outstanding resource finding bioactive compounds. exploration compounds plays role development biomedical research. Reports on aeruginosa, many which pharmacological importance, hold great promise effective against microbial infections drug-resistant pathogens. In this review, we attempt to summarize published articles twenty-five years (2000–2024) aeruginosa.
