Lentinan from shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) suppresses expression of cytochrome P450 1A subfamily in the mouse liver
Preclinical
Abstract
Lentinan from shiitake (Lentinus edodes) suppressed hepatic cytochrome P450 1A expression in mice via TNF-alpha and NF-kappaB, a mechanism relevant to the chemopreventive (anticancer) potential of the mushroom beta-glucan.
