Edible fungus is a broad class of food resources with valuable healthy and nutritious properties resulting from corresponding components. Polysaccharide is one of them and is evidenced to be with many bioactivities, especially immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory and hypoglycaemic effect. Thus, edible fungus become an appropriate substitute for many existing medicines to treat related diseases without side-effect.
With the further research on these bioactivities of edible fungus polysaccharides, the mechanism of immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycaemic effects exhibit correlation among each other, not only in cell models but also in organ and animal models. The correlation analysis among the different bioactivities becomes increasingly important to illustrate the comprehensive mechanism of polysaccharides for these bioactivities clearly or use the polysaccharide to treat related diseases by novel therapeutic strategies.
However, the existing research on the immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycaemic effects as well as their correlation to edible fungus polysaccharide is insufficient. It is essential to explore the corresponding bioactivities of the polysaccharide thoroughly and develop them to treat related diseases.
This Research Topic aims to explore the comprehensive mechanism of edible fungus polysaccharides in immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycaemic effects and fill the gap in the knowledge about the correlation among these bioactivities. This would provide novel therapeutic strategies for the edible fungus polysaccharides to treat related diseases. We welcome manuscripts from the following subtopics:
1. The mechanism of edible fungus polysaccharide in immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycaemic effect.
2. The correlation analysis among the immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and hypoglycaemic effects of edible fungus polysaccharides.
3. The comprehensive efficacy of edible fungus polysaccharides on related diseases.
4. The structure-efficacy relationship.
