Description
Menna-Allah Abdelkader and colleagues test four mushroom extracts against oxidative stress and cell ageing. Their study from twenty twenty-four covers two medicinal and two edible species. Free radicals damage cells and speed premature ageing. Natural antioxidants from fungi are a candidate defence.
Standard assays measured antioxidant strength of each extract. Human skin cells were artificially aged, then treated with extracts. Even low extract doses boosted cell growth strongly in one species. Cell cycle arrest eased, and DNA synthesis rose in treated cells. Lion's mane extract showed notable effects on synthesis. The results support mushroom extracts as anti-ageing ingredients worth developing.
