Biological Activity
Ganoderol B with 5α-reductase inhibitory activity and the ability to bind to androgen receptor (AR) can inhibit androgen-induced LNCaP cell growth and suppress regrowth of the ventral prostate induced by testosterone in rats, suggests that ganoderol B might be useful in prostate cancer and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) therapy through suppressing the function of androgen and its receptor.[1]
Ganoderol B, isolated from the fruiting body of Ganoderma lucidum, is a potent α-glucosidase inhibitor, and α-Glucosidase inhibitor has considerable potential as a diabetes mellitus type 2 drug because it prevents the digestion of carbohydrates, suggests that ganoderol B could be a diabetes mellitus type 2 drug.[2]
Ganoderol B inhibits LNCaP cell expressed androgen receptor (AR), the inhibitory activity caused by its anti-androgen effect.[3]
