The study focused to evaluate cytotoxic, antioxidant, antimicrobial and anticholinesterase activities of methanol extracts of Pleurotus ostreatus Jacq. (Pleurotaceae), Boletus edulis Bull. (Boletaceae), Tricholoma populinum J. (Tricholomataceae) Helvella queletii Bres. (Helvellaceae), Armillaria tabescens Emel. (Physalacriaceae), Psathyrella candolleana Fr. (Psathyrellaceae) and Helvella leucopus Pers. (Helvellaceae) mushroom species. Phenolic acid profiles of these mushrooms were also determined to obtain further information on the correlation between the contents of phenolic compounds and studied activities. Cytotoxic activity of mushrooms was screened by MTT cytotoxicity assay on cancer (HeLa) and normal epithelium (NRK-52E) cell lines. To determine antioxidant potential of mushroom extracts free radical scavenging, reducing power, superoxide anion radi.. Read More»
