  • Title: Ganoderic acids from Ganoderma lucidum: inhibitory activity of osteoclastic differentiation and structural criteria.
    Author: Liu J, Shiono J, Shimizu K, Kondo R.
    Journal: Planta Med; 2010 Feb; 76(2):137-9. PubMed ID: 19670160.
    Abstract:
    Increased osteoclastic bone resorption plays a central role in the pathogenesis of many bone diseases. Ganoderma lucidum is known for medicinal effects such as anti-inflammatory and anti-bone resorption activities. In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of ganoderic acids isolated from G. lucidum on osteoclastic differentiation using RAW264 cells in vitro. A carbonyl in C7 is essential to elicit the inhibition of osteoclast differentiation.
