Potential mechanism of mycelium polysaccharide from Pholiota dinghuensis Bi in regulating the proliferation and apoptosis of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells through p38/MAPK pathway

The antiproliferative and apoptosis-inducing activities of an acidic polysaccharides fraction from Pholiota dinghuensis Bi mycelium (PDP-3) against human breast cancer MCF-7 cells were investigated. As a result, PDP-3 displayed a significant prevention of cell growth towards MCF-7 cells, with an EC5...
