Overview

This analysis demonstrates neuroprotective and hepatoprotective effects in aging models, suggesting mushrooms may counteract oxidative stress.

Key Points

  • All mushroom extracts significantly reduced oxidative stress and showed beneficial health effects in aging models.
  • Hericium erinaceus and Ganoderma lucidum had the strongest neuroprotective and hepatoprotective properties against D-galactose-induced aging.
  • Protein, phenol, and flavonoid content were quantified, with Agaricus bisporus having the highest values among tested mushrooms.
  • Antimicrobial activity was observed in all extracts against various bacteria, except Hericium erinaceus, mainly targeting E. coli.
