Immune regulatory functions of biologically active proteins from edible fungi.

ABSTRACT: Proteins from edible mushrooms have a variety of biological activities. Here, thirteen precious edible mushrooms such as Ophiocordyceps sinensis, Ganoderma lucidum, and Morchella esculenta and nine common edible mushrooms such as Flammulina velutipes, Pleurotus ostreatus, and Pleurotus eryngii, etc., from which their proteins were extracted, their composition analyzed and their immunomodulatory activity assessed. Rare mushrooms are a species of edible mushrooms with higher edible value and medicinal value than common edible mushrooms. The results showed that all the different edible mushroom crude proteins increased the proliferation and phagocytosis of mouse macrophages, and we found that these edible mushroom proteins affected the secretion of re
