The Mycobiome Frontier – Pre & Post 2020 Status: Integrating Fungal Bioactive Compounds, Probiotics, and Antimicrobial Peptides in Modern Therapeutics and Biotechnology.
Abstract: The fungal kingdom represents an indispensable resource in modern therapeutics and biotechnology, offering a diverse array of bioactive compounds, probiotics, and antimicrobial peptides (AMPs). Functional fungal polysaccharides (FFPs), such as beta-glucans, chitin, and mannans, are centrally involved in modulating the human gut microbiota, providing novel therapeutic avenues for chronic conditions including diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. These compounds act as prebiotics, nourishing beneficial bacteria and enhancing metabolic parameters such as …
