The production process encourages the growing ( 52 ) U.S. CI. mycelium to export bioactive compounds such as beta CPC A61K 31/716 (2013.01 ) ; A61K 9/0014 glucans into the surrounding liquid . Thus, the beta glucan is (2013.01 ) ; A61K 9/06 ( 2013.01) ; A61K 31/728 soluble and easily absorbed . More importantly , the produc (2013.01 ) ; A61K 35/644 (2013.01 ) ; A61K tion process allows the beta glucan to retain its triple helix 36/07 (2013.01 ) ; A61K 47/06 ( 2013.01 ) ; A61K structure which is required to maintain a very high bioactive 47/10 (2013.01 ) ; A61K 47/12 (2013.01 ) ; A61K efficacy . The beta glucans from Ganoderma lucidum can be 47/26 (2013.01 ) ; A61K 47/44 (2013.01 ) ; A61K used in a cream for treatment of psoriasis . 9/0021 ( 2013.01) ; A61K 9/7023 (2013.01 ) 17 Claims, 25 Drawing Sheets U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 1 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 1 A Notreatment B 20 07 treatmentNo U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 2 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 2A Limbs before treatment Limbs after 3 months treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 3 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 2B Limbs before treatment Limbs after treatment 3 months 1 month U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 4 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 3 A : Skin on human leg before treatment B : Skin on same human leg after treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 5 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 A ) Patient BH : Right elbow pre and post treatment B ) Patient BH : Left elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 6 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued C ) Patient RA : Right elbow pre and post treatment D ) Patient RA : Left elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 7 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued E ) Patient RA : Right knee pre and post treatment F ) Patient RA : Left knee pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 8 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued G ) Patient JM : Right elbow pre and post treatment H ) Patient JM : Left elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 9 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued 1 ) Patient JM : Right elbow pre and 1 month post treatment J ) Patient JM : Left elbow pre and 1 month post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 10 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued K ) Patient JM : Right calf pre and post treatment L ) Patient Pl: Right elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 11 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued M ) Patient Pl: Left elbow pre and post treatment AN N ) Patient JS : Right elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 12 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued 0 ) Patient JS : Left elbow pre and post treatment P ) Patient NM : Right elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 13 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued Q ) Patient NM : Left elbow pre and post treatment R ) Patient GY: Elbows pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 14 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued S ) Patient SG : Right elbow pre and post treatment T ) Patient SG : Left elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 15 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued U ) Patient GO : Right elbow pre and post treatment V ) Patient GO : Left elbow pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 16 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued W ) Patient CB : Left elbow pre and post treatment X ) Patient PK : Right knee pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 17 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 4 continued Y ) Patient PK : Left knee pre and post treatment M Z ) Patient CB : Right knee pre and post treatment U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 18 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 5 Persent of total, reduction of itching 2 weeks Nissing Wreduction Figure 6 Percent of total , scaling , 2 weeks 250 200 de 15,0 10.0 5,0 20 % 80 % Missing % Reduction U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 19 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 7 Percent of total, redness 2 weeks 40,0 35.0 30.0 25.0 e 20,0 15,0 10,0 5.0 % 60 % 100 % Mssing % redution Figure 8 Percent of subjects with reduction of itching 4 weeks 25,0 15,0 0,0 20 % 1. 60 % 100 % Missing % reduction U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 20 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 9 Percent of total, scaling 4 weeks 25,0 20.0 15,0 Percent 10,0 5,0 0.0 0 % 20 % 40 % 60 % 100 % Missing ului% Reduction Figure 10 Percent of total, redness 4 weeks 30,0 25,0 15,0 %reduction 10,0 5,0 0,0 1 0 % 20un % 40 % 60 % 80 % 100 % Missing Percent U.S. Patent Aug. 4 , 2020 Sheet 21 of 25 US 10,729,714 B2 Figure 11 Percent of subjcts with reduction in itching at 2 and 4 weeks 2 weeks $ 4 weeks 30,0 25,0 20.0 Percent 15.0 10,0 0.0 0 % 20 % 40 % 60 % 80 % 100 % Missing % Reduction Figure 12 Percent of total after 2 and 4 weeks , scaling $ 2 weeks & 4 weeks 300 25.0 20.0 Percent 15,0 10.0 5.0 0,0 0 % 20 % 40 % 60 % 80 % 100 % Missing % reduction U.S. Patent Aug.

Aphyllophorales (Basidiomycetes). Taxonomy, Ecology and Distri­ bution. Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av rektorsämbetet vid Umeå universitet för avläggande av filosofie doktorsexamen framlägges till offentlig granskning vid Avdelningen för ekologisk botanik, Botanik, Fysiologi, Hufo, sem.-rum B, tisdagen den 27 maj 1975, kl. 10. Abstract Wood-inhabiting fungi were collected on different trees in 99 loca-' lities of alder woods, dominated by Alnus incana or occasionally A. glutinosa, in N-C Sweden and C Norway. Most of the localities are situated near the east coast of Sweden where the prevailing land elevation creates conditions suitable for colonization by alder. The remaining localities are mainly found in the inland parts of Sweden and Norway, along streams, in ravines etc. The investigated localities are briefly described as to their general vegetation, and a regional survey of the alder forests is given. The number of collections of Aphyllophorales amounts to approxi­ mately 5,000, comprising 286 species. The following new combinations are proposed: Hypoohnicium polonense (Bres.) Strid, H. pruinosum (Bres.) Strid, Phlebia lindtneri (Pil.) Parm. and Sistotrema hete- roncmum (John Erikss.) Strid. Seven species are collected as new to Scandinavia, viz., Botryobasidium aure urn3 Ceratobasidium stridiit Hyphoderma orphanellum, Hyphodontiella multiseptata, Hypoohnicium pruinosum> Phlebia lindtneri and Tubuliorinis effugiens, and approxi­ mately 85 additional species are reported for the first time from the investigation area. Six specimens of Cortioiaoeae have remained undetermined but are included in the species list.

Box 7, FI-00014 University of Helsinki, Finland * Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract — DNA study of Sarcoporia polyspora (= Parmastomyces transmutans) revealed only negligible sequence differences between conifer-dwelling specimens with cartilaginous layer in the context from USA, Brazil, Europe, and Far East Asia, but a very different sequence from three resupinate and hardwood-bound collections without such a layer and with slightly narrower and pale brown spores from USA and Madeira Islands. This fungus, found also among historical USA collections of S. polyspora in the BPI herbarium, is described here as Sarcoporia longitubulata. The phylogenetic position ofSarcoporia is discussed. Key words — Basidiomycota, brown rot fungi, molecular taxonomy, Parmastomyces kravtzevianus Introduction Sarcoporia polyspora P. Karst. is a very distinct, brown-rot polypore with soft, resupinate to effused-reflexed basidiomes that are white to crème at first but turn reddish-brown after bruising or drying. It can be easily recognized by its ellipsoid and thick-walled, dextrinoid spores, which are quite unique in polypores. The species is rare in Europe but rather common in North America (on Tsuga spp. and Pinus spp.) and in Asia (Vlasák & Kout 2010, Dai 2012).

  • Phylogenetic Classification of Trametes
    TAXON 60 (6) • December 2011: 1567–1583 Justo & Hibbett • Phylogenetic classification of Trametes SYSTEMATICS AND PHYLOGENY Phylogenetic classification of Trametes (Basidiomycota, Polyporales) based on a five-marker dataset Alfredo Justo & David S. Hibbett Clark University, Biology Department, 950 Main St., Worcester, Massachusetts 01610, U.S.A. Author for correspondence: Alfredo Justo, [email protected] Abstract: The phylogeny of Trametes and related genera was studied using molecular data from ribosomal markers (nLSU, ITS) and protein-coding genes (RPB1, RPB2, TEF1-alpha) and consequences for the taxonomy and nomenclature of this group were considered. Separate datasets with rDNA data only, single datasets for each of the protein-coding genes, and a combined five-marker dataset were analyzed. Molecular analyses recover a strongly supported trametoid clade that includes most of Trametes species (including the type T. suaveolens, the T. versicolor group, and mainly tropical species such as T. maxima and T. cubensis) together with species of Lenzites and Pycnoporus and Coriolopsis polyzona. Our data confirm the positions of Trametes cervina (= Trametopsis cervina) in the phlebioid clade and of Trametes trogii (= Coriolopsis trogii) outside the trametoid clade, closely related to Coriolopsis gallica. The genus Coriolopsis, as currently defined, is polyphyletic, with the type species as part of the trametoid clade and at least two additional lineages occurring in the core polyporoid clade. In view of these results the use of a single generic name (Trametes) for the trametoid clade is considered to be the best taxonomic and nomenclatural option as the morphological concept of Trametes would remain almost unchanged, few new nomenclatural combinations would be necessary, and the classification of additional species (i.e., not yet described and/or sampled for mo- lecular data) in Trametes based on morphological characters alone will still be possible.

  • A Re-Evaluation of Neotropical Junghuhnia S.Lat. (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) Based on Morphological and Multigene Analyses
    Persoonia 41, 2018: 130–141 ISSN (Online) 1878-9080 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/persoonia.2018.41.07 A re-evaluation of Neotropical Junghuhnia s.lat. (Polyporales, Basidiomycota) based on morphological and multigene analyses M.C. Westphalen1,*, M. Rajchenberg2, M. Tomšovský3, A.M. Gugliotta1 Key words Abstract Junghuhnia is a genus of polypores traditionally characterised by a dimitic hyphal system with clamped generative hyphae and presence of encrusted skeletocystidia. However, recent molecular studies revealed that Mycodiversity Junghuhnia is polyphyletic and most of the species cluster with Steccherinum, a morphologically similar genus phylogeny separated only by a hydnoid hymenophore. In the Neotropics, very little is known about the evolutionary relation- Steccherinaceae ships of Junghuhnia s.lat. taxa and very few species have been included in molecular studies. In order to test the taxonomy proper phylogenetic placement of Neotropical species of this group, morphological and molecular analyses were carried out. Specimens were collected in Brazil and used for DNA sequence analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and the large subunit of the nuclear ribosomal RNA gene, the translation elongation factor 1-α gene, and the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II gene. Herbarium collections, including type specimens, were studied for morphological comparison and to confirm the identity of collections. The molecular data obtained revealed that the studied species are placed in three different genera. Specimens of Junghuhnia carneola represent two distinct species that group in a lineage within the phlebioid clade, separated from Junghuhnia and Steccherinum, which belong to the residual polyporoid clade.

  • 9B Taxonomy to Genus
    Fungus and Lichen Genera in the NEMF Database Taxonomic hierarchy: phyllum > class (-etes) > order (-ales) > family (-ceae) > genus. Total number of genera in the database: 526 Anamorphic fungi (see p. 4), which are disseminated by propagules not formed from cells where meiosis has occurred, are presently not grouped by class, order, etc. Most propagules can be referred to as "conidia," but some are derived from unspecialized vegetative mycelium. A significant number are correlated with fungal states that produce spores derived from cells where meiosis has, or is assumed to have, occurred. These are, where known, members of the ascomycetes or basidiomycetes. However, in many cases, they are still undescribed, unrecognized or poorly known. (Explanation paraphrased from "Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th Edition.") Principal authority for this taxonomy is the Dictionary of the Fungi and its online database, www.indexfungorum.org. For lichens, see Lecanoromycetes on p. 3. Basidiomycota Aegerita Poria Macrolepiota Grandinia Poronidulus Melanophyllum Agaricomycetes Hyphoderma Postia Amanitaceae Cantharellales Meripilaceae Pycnoporellus Amanita Cantharellaceae Abortiporus Skeletocutis Bolbitiaceae Cantharellus Antrodia Trichaptum Agrocybe Craterellus Grifola Tyromyces Bolbitius Clavulinaceae Meripilus Sistotremataceae Conocybe Clavulina Physisporinus Trechispora Hebeloma Hydnaceae Meruliaceae Sparassidaceae Panaeolina Hydnum Climacodon Sparassis Clavariaceae Polyporales Gloeoporus Steccherinaceae Clavaria Albatrellaceae Hyphodermopsis Antrodiella

  • Chapter 1. Introduction
    Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 1. Introduction Research and ecological context Importance of the mutualistic symbiosis Truffle-like fungi are an important component in many terrestrial ecosystems. They provide a food resource for mycophagous (‘fungus-eating’) animals and are an essential symbiont for many plant species (Claridge 2002; Brundrett 2009). Most truffle-like fungi are considered ectomycorrhizal (EcM) in which the fungus hyphae penetrate the plant root structure and form a sheath (‘Hartig Net’) around plant root tips. This enables the exchange of water, minerals, and metabolites between fungus and plant (Nehls et al. 2010). The fungus can form extensive networks of mycelium in the soil extending the effective surface of the plant-host root system. EcM fungi can also confer resistance to parasites, predators, pathogens, and heavy-metal pollution, as well as the breakdown of inorganic substrates (Claridge 2002; Gadd 2007; Bonfante & Genre 2010). EcM fungi can reproduce through mycelia (vegetative) growth or through spores. Truffle-like EcM fungi form reproductive below-ground (hypogeous) fruit-bodies (sporocarps) in which spores are entirely or partly enclosed within fungal tissue of the sporocarp (‘sequestrate’), and often referred to as ‘truffles’. The sporocarps of these fungi (‘truffles’) generally require excavation and consumption by mycophagous mammals for spores to be liberated and dispersed to new locations (Johnson 1996; Bougher & Lebel 2001). In contrast, epigeous or ‘mushroom-like’ fungi produce stipitate above-ground sporocarps in which spores are not enclosed within fungal tissue and are actively or passively discharged into the surrounding environment. Consequently, truffle-like taxa are considered to have evolved to be reliant on mycophagous animals for their dispersal.
