Abstract

Auricularia is a key genus among edible macrofungi, sourced as either wild or cultivated mushrooms. Auricularia species are utilized as nutrient-rich foods and medicinal resources, with particular prominence in Traditional Asian Medicine. Cultivated Auricularia species can be grown under a wide range of conditions, allowing for production volumes worldwide. Although Auricularia species are used predominantly within the food industry, there is strong potential for their use in the production of therapeutic drugs, thus making it necessary to identify relevant bioactive compounds and further our understanding of its pharmacological properties. Carbohydrates are the major nutritional constituent of edible Auricularia species in addition to proteins, fat, fibre, ashes vitamins and minerals. This review discusses polysaccharides as one of the major active compounds found in edible Auricularia species in relation to their nutritional value, extraction methods, and pharmacological properties. Current methods of evaluating the pharmacological effects of compounds derived from Auricularia include in vitro assays, in vivo animal models, as well as several human clinical trials. Potential medical applications for these compounds include the production of novel therapeutic drugs for treating diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders.
综述了木耳的多糖、蛋白质和部分营养成分及其潜在的药理价值
黑木耳是一种重要的食用大型真菌属,来源于野生或栽培蘑菇。黑木耳是一种营养丰富的食物和药用资源,在亚洲传统医学中占有重要地位。栽培黑木耳品种可以在各种条件下种植,从而实现全球产量。虽然黑木耳主要用于食品工业,但它们在生产治疗药物方面有很大的潜力,因此有必要鉴定相关的生物活性化合物,并进一步了解其药理特性。除了蛋白质、脂肪、纤维、灰烬、维生素和矿物质外,碳水化合物是食用木耳的主要营养成分。本文就木耳中多糖的营养价值、提取方法和药理作用等方面进行了综述。目前评价黑木耳化合物药理作用的方法包括体外实验、体内动物模型以及一些人体临床试验。这些化合物的潜在医疗应用包括生产用于治疗诸如癌症、糖尿病和心血管疾病等疾病的新型治疗药物。
