Hericium spp., Hericenones, Medicinal mushrooms, Neuropharmacology, Biotechnological valorization
Isolation, structural elucidation, and physicochemical characterization of Hericenones from mushrooms of the genus Hericium, and evaluation of their neuroprotective and anti-aging activities for applications in neuropharmacology and cosmetology
Algeria, rich in largely unexplored fungal biodiversity, represents a promising area for isolating new strains of Hericium fungi and characterizing their secondary metabolites. In-depth study of Algerian hericenones could thus contribute to the biotechnological valorization of local natural resources, while also paving the way for new therapeutic and cosmetic applications.
