Also it can be used to treat depression as a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The study here aimed to evaluate the antidepressant effect between the supercritical CO2 extract (SC-E) from Citri reticulatae pericarpium and the essential oil extracted by steam distillation (SD-E). And chemical compositions of SC-E were qualitatively analyzed by ultra-perfor- mance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS) and gas chro- matography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Compared with SD-E, SC-E showed a stronger antidepressant-like effect in FST and TST mice. And it also decreased the content of monoamine oxidase (MAO) in the cerebral cortex of stressed mice.

  • A REVIEW on ANTITUMOR ACTIONS of POLYSACCHARIDE ISOLATED from MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS Noure AL ALI ZIDAN* and Heba ALNEAMEH**
    IJASR International Journal of Academic Scientific Research ISSN: 2272-6446 Volume 2, Issue 1 (February-March 2014), PP 14-20 www.ijasrjournal.org A REVIEW ON ANTITUMOR ACTIONS OF POLYSACCHARIDE ISOLATED FROM MEDICINAL MUSHROOMS Noure AL ALI ZIDAN* and Heba ALNEAMEH** *Faculty of Biotechnology, Aleppo University, Aleppo, Syria ** Faculty of Pharmacy, Damascus University, Damascus, Syria ABSTRACT Mushrooms have long been attracting a great deal of interest in many areas of foods and biopharmaceuticals. They are well known for their nutritional and medicinal values. Mushrooms comprise a vast and yet largely untapped source of powerful new pharmaceutical products. In particular, and most importantly for modern medicine, they represent an unlimited source of polysaccharides with antitumor and immunostimulating properties. Recently, basidiomycete fungi have been used for the treatment of cancer. Many, if not all, Basidiomycetes mushrooms contain biologically active polysaccharides in fruit bodies, cultured mycelium, culture broth. Polysaccharides and polysaccharide-protein complexes from medicinal mushrooms may enhance innate immune responses, resulting in antitumor activities. In this review, in the search for the development of new anticancer drugs, the effects of polysaccharides isolated from medicinal mushrooms on tumor were studied. Keywords: Antitumor activity; polysaccharide; medicinal mushrooms INTRODUCTION Cancer is the largest single cause of death in both men and women, claiming over 6 million lives each year worldwide. Cancer chemotherapy drugs such as 5-fluorouracil derivatives, cisplatin , mitomycin, adriamycin, taxol, etc., have been used extensively for the treatment of certain types of cancer.However, with these treatments, severe gastrointestinal toxicity, with diarrhea and mucosis and hematological toxicity, with leucopenia and immune suppression, appear to be dose-limiting factors.
