Fungal polysaccharides from Inonotus obliquus are agonists for Toll-like receptors and induce macrophage anti-cancer activity.

Inonotus obliquus polysaccharides AcF1 and AcF3 activate tumor-fighting functions in macrophages by triggering immune receptors TLR2 and TLR4, showing promise for cancer immunotherapy.

Assessment of the effect of drying on Brassica greens via a multiplex approach based on LC-QTOF-MS/MS, molecular networking, and chemometrics along with their antioxidant and anticancer activities.

Drying methods (lyophilization, vacuum oven, shade drying) of turnip leaves impact phytochemical composition. Lyophilization and shade drying result in higher antioxidant and anticancer activities. Shade drying is cost-effective with similar benefits. Provides foundation for further research on Brassica greens.
