1 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Shiitake (Lentinus edodes) mushrooms have been reported to have cancer-preventing properties. However, little research has been conducted verifying the antitumor activities of "mycochemicals" in shiitake mushrooms. In this study, potential roles of an ethyl acetate fraction from shiitake mushrooms were investigated by in vitro bioassays. DESIGN: The activities of an ethyl acetate fraction were...
