Six new highly oxygenated lanostane-type triterpenes, called ganoderic acid gamma (1), ganoderic acid delta (2), ganoderic acid epsilon (3), ganoderic acid zeta (4), ganoderic acid eta (5) and ganoderic acid theta (6), were isolated from the spores of Ganoderma lucidum, together with known ganolucidic acid D (7) and ganoderic acid C2 (8). Their structures of the new triterpenes were determined ...

BACKGROUND Ganoderic acid B is an important bioactive ingredient isolated from Ganoderma lucidum, and exhibits various pharmacological activities. AIMS To investigate the influence of Ganoderic acid B towards the therapeutic window of trifluoperazine (TFP). METHODS In vitro human liver microsomes (HLMs) incubation system was used to determine the inhibition of Ganoderic acid B towards the g...

Two new highly oxygenated lanostane triterpenoids, ganoderic acid AP2 (1) and ganoderic acid AP3 (2), were isolated from the fruiting bodies of the fungus Ganoderma applanatum (Ganodermataceae), along with four known analogues, ganoderenic acids A, B, D and G (3-6). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis.

ganoderma lucidum is one of the most well-known fungi, and has many applications in medicine. ganoderic acid is among the valuable secondary metabolites of ganoderma lucidum, and responsible for the inhibition of the tumor cell growth and cancer treatment. application of ganoderic acid has been limited because of low yields of its production from ganoderma lucidum. the present study aims to inv...

Five new lanostane triterpenoids, ganoderic acid XL1 (1), ganoderic acid XL2 (2), 20-hydroxy-ganoderic acid AM1 (3), ganoderenic acid AM1 (4) and ganoderesin C (5), together with five known triterpenoids (6-10) were isolated from the fruiting bodies of Ganoderma theaecolum. Chemical structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic evidence, including 1D, 2D NMR, mass spectrometric data ...

backgrounds and objectives : ganoderic acids are the most valuable secondary metabolites in ganoderma lucidum traditional medicinal mushrooms, which have shown antitumor properties in many studies. however, application of ganoderic acids is limited due to low yield production. recently, it was shown that static liquid culture could be a proven technology for producing ganoderic acids in ganoder...

The quality difference of six varieties Ganoderma lucidum with different origins was investigated in this study by comparing the contents of ganoderic acid A and B, polysaccharide, and triterpenoids. The contents of ganoderic acid A and B in G. lucidum were analyzed by ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC). There was higher content of ganoderic acid A in G. lucidum of Dabie Mountain an...

Five new highly oxygenated lanostane-type triterpenoids [ganoderic acid GS-1 (1), ganoderic acid GS-2 (2), ganoderic acid GS-3 (3), 20(21)-dehydrolucidenic acid N (4) and 20-hydroxylucidenic acid A (5)] were isolated from the fruiting body of Ganoderma sinense, together with known compounds including 6 triterpenoids and 3 sterols. The structures of the new triterpenoids determined by spectrosco...

Two new lanostane-type triterpenes, lucidumol A and ganoderic acid beta, were isolated from the spores of Ganoderma (G.) lucidum, together with a new natural one and seven that were known. The structures of the new triterpenes were determined as (24S)-24,25-dihydroxylanost-8-ene-3,7-dione and 3 beta,7 beta-dihydroxy-11,15-dioxolanosta-8,24(E)-dien-26-oic acid, respectively, by chemical and spec...
