“…These bioactive compounds may include the following groups: polysaccharides, amino acids, alkaloids, fatty acids, nucleosides, triterpenes, and others. The role of bioactive metabolites in edible mushrooms in preventing human hair loss was investigated by Tiwari et al [116]. They reported that hair loss could be due to the existence of androgenic alopecia (AGA), which occurs because of the hyperactivity of the steroid 5α-reductase2.…”

Mushrooms have always been an important source of food, with high nutritional value and medicinal attributes. With the use of biotechnological applications, mushrooms have gained further attention as a source of healthy food and bioenergy. This review presents different biotechnological applications and explores how these can support global food, energy, and water security. It highlights mushroom’s relevance to meet the sustainable development goals of the UN. This review also discusses mushroom farming and its requirements. The biotechnology review includes sections on how to use mushrooms in producing nanoparticles, bioenergy, and bioactive compounds, as well as how to use mushrooms in bioremediation. The different applications are discussed under the water, energy, and food (WEF) nexus. As far as we know, this is the first report on mushroom biotechnology and its relationships to the WEF nexus. Finally, the review valorizes mushroom biotechnology and suggests different possibilities for mushroom farming integration.
