“…The major polysaccharides identified in G. lucidum bodies showed to have a backbone of β-(1→3)-linked D-glucopyranosyl residues, with branches of mono-, di-and oligosaccharide side chains substituting at the C-6 of the glucosyl residues in the main chain. The studies carried out on these polysaccharides are also suggesting that the degree of substitution of the backbone chain and the length of branching chains might have some importance in determining the biological activities of β-(1→3)-linked glucans [4,27].…”

Recent studies have shown that mushrooms are recognized as a promising source of functional and nutraceutical compounds. The species Ganoderma lucidum (also called Reishi or Lingzhi) is a mushroom used in medicine because Chinese attributes to this fungus better health and longevity. Among the numerous bioactive compounds identified in G. lucidum are polysaccharides mostly β-glucans, heteropolysaccharides or glycoproteins, terpenoids mostly ganoderic acids and derivatives, as well as many other bioactive proteinases that contribute to health and diseases prevention. The aim of this review is to report on the profile of the most bioactive compounds, particularly polysaccharides and terpenoids of G. lucidum.
