The present study aimed to determine the anticancer the treatment with either C5E or gemcitabine alone. As the effect of the herbal mixture extract C5E in the pancreatic cancer co‑treatment with gemcitabine and C5E was more effective cell line, PANC‑1, in the absence or presence of gemcitabine than each individual treatment, the present study suggested treatment, a chemotherapeutic drug used for the treatment of that the combined treatment may exhibit synergistic effects in pancreatic cancer. The anticancer effects of C5E, gemcitabine PANC‑1 cells. and C5E plus gemcitabine in PANC‑1 cells following 72 h of treatment were investigated. The effect of each treatment on Introduction cell cycle arrest, apoptosis and the proportion of side popula‑ tion (SP) cells was determined using flow cytometric analysis Pancreatic cancer is a fatal disease, representing the fourth following propidium iodide (PI), Annexin V‑FITC/PI double leading cause of cancer‑related deaths worldwide.

NRDC: Generally Recognized As Secret
NRDC Report April 2014 Generally Recognized as Secret: Chemicals Added to Food in the United States Tom Neltner, J.D., Maricel Maffini, Ph.D. Natural Resources Defense Council In April 2014, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) released a report raising concerns about a loophole in the Food Additives Amendment of 1958 for substances designated by food manufacturers as “generally recognized as safe” (GRAS). The report identified 56 companies that appeared to market 275 chemicals for use in food based on undisclosed GRAS safety determinations. For each chemical we identified in this study, we did not find evidence that FDA had cleared them for use in food. The 1958 law exempted from the formal, extended FDA approval process common food ingredients like vinegar and vegetable oil whose use qualifies as GRAS. It may have appeared reasonable at the time, but that exemption has been stretched into a loophole that has swallowed the law. The exemption allows manufacturers to make safety determinations that the uses of their newest chemicals in food are safe without notifying the FDA. The agency’s attempts to limit these undisclosed GRAS determinations by asking industry to voluntarily inform the FDA about their chemicals are insufficient to ensure the safety of our food in today’s global marketplace with a complex food supply. Furthermore, no other developed country in the world has a system like GRAS to provide oversight of food ingredients. In Table 1 and 2 of the report, NRDC identified the 56 companies and the number of chemicals that each company appeared to market as GRAS without FDA clearance. -
Syzygites Megalocarpus (Mucorales, Zygomycetes) in Illinois
Transactions of the Illinois State Academy of Science received 12/8/98 (1999), Volume 92, 3 and 4, pp. 181-190 accepted 6/2/99 Syzygites megalocarpus (Mucorales, Zygomycetes) in Illinois R. L. Kovacs1 and W. J. Sundberg2 Department of Plant Biology, Mail Code 6509 Southern Illinois University at Carbondale Carbondale, Illinois 62901-6509 1Current Address: Salem Academy; 942 Lancaster Dr. NE; Salem, OR 97301 2Corresponding Author ABSTRACT Syzygites megalocarpus Ehrenb.: Fr. (Mucorales, Zygomycetes), which occurs on fleshy fungi and was previously unreported from Illinois, has been collected from five counties- -Cook, Gallatin, Jackson, Union, and Williamson. In Illinois, S. megalocarpus occurs on 23 species in 18 host genera. Fresh host material collected in the field and appearing uninfected can develop S. megalocarpus colonies after incubation in the laboratory. The ability of S. megalocarpus to colonize previously uninfected hosts was demonstrated by inoculation studies in the laboratory. Because the known distribution of potential hosts in Illinois is much broader than documented here, further attention to S. megalocarpus should more fully elucidate the host and geographic ranges of this Zygomycete in the state. Using light and scanning electron microscopy, the heretofore unmeasured warts on the zygosporangium were 4-6 µm broad and 5-8 µm high, providing additional informa- tion for circumscription of this genus. INTRODUCTION Syzygites (Mucorales, Zygomycetes) is a presumptive mycoparasite that occurs on fleshy fungi (Figs. 1-2) and contains a single species, S. megalocarpus Ehrenb.: Fr. (Hesseltine 1957). It is homothallic and forms erect sporangiophores which are dichotomously branched and bear columellate, multispored sporangia at their apices (Fries 1832, Hes- seltine 1957, Benny and O'Donnell 1978, O'Donnell 1979). -

Mycosphere 5(6), 814–820, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/6/11 Abstract Agaricus flocculosipes and A. subrufescens are edible species that belong to section Arvenses of the genus Agaricus. Agaricus subrufescens (almond mushroom) is known to produce bioactive compounds with medicinal properties, such as anti-cancer and anti-tumor activity and fruiting bodies are also edible and nutritious. Agaricus subrufescens is presently cultivated in Brazil, China, Japan, Taiwan and some European countries for use as foods and nutraceuticals. Agaricus flocculosipes is a newly described species currently known only from Thailand, Mayotte Island and China. Species of Agaricus have high potential for cultivation as many species are edible and have medicinal properties. Herein we report the first cultivation of A. flocculosipes and a Thai strain of A. -

Consequently, issues related to the origin of the Korean or Chinese substrate used in shiitake mushrooms produced using bag cultivation have been reported. Here, we investigated differences in fatty acids (FAs) and stable isotope ratios (SIRs) in shiitake mushrooms cultivated using Korean and Chinese substrates under similar conditions (strain, temperature, humidity, etc.) and depending on the harvesting cycle. The total FA level decreased significantly by 5.49 mg g 1 as the harvesting cycle increased (p < 0.0001); however, no differences · − were found in FAs between shiitake mushrooms cultivated using Korean and Chinese substrates. -
