Study on the 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methyl‐glutaryl <scp>CoA</scp> reductase inhibitory properties of <i>Agaricus bisporus</i> and extraction of bioactive fractions using pressurised solvent technologies

Abstract

A mushroom cultivation and two extraction procedures were optimised to obtain fractions from A. bisporus with high HMGCR inhibitory activities to design novel ingredients for hypocholesterolaemic functional foodstuffs.
