Abstract
Ganoderma lucidum are used as traditional edible and medicinal materials in China. In this study, antioxidant activities of polysaccharides from G. lucidum in China were investigated. The influence of G. lucidum polysaccharides upon activities of serum antioxidant enzymes and immunity in rats with cervical cancer. The antioxidant activity was measured by DPPH−, O−, and OH− free radicals scavenging. Results showed that G. lucidum polysaccharides exhibited the higher DPPH−, O−, and OH− free radicals scavenging activities. The results still showed that G. lucidum polysaccharides could significantly enhance the antioxidant enzyme activities (SOD, CAT and GPx), and reduce levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in rats with cervical cancer.
