Lung Cancer

A systematic review in 2015 suggested that Turkey Tail may improve immune function and reduces symptoms of, and extend survival time in lung cancer patients. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25784670/ A clinical trial, led by K W Tsang of the Department of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital, Pokfulam, Hong Kong titled “Coriolus versicolor polysaccharide peptide slows progression of advanced non-small cell lung cancer“, suggests that treatment with Coriolus versicolor appears to be associated with slower deterioration in patients with advanced https://www.resmedjournal.com/article/S0954-6111(03)91490-9/pdf

Anti-Obesity

A Chinese study in 2015 demonstrated how one protein-bound beta glucan in Turkey Tail can be a potent anti-obesity component. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mnfr.201801231

Breast Cancer

A study in 2012, led  by Carolyn J. Torkelson of the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health, Medical School, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN 55455, titled “Phase 1 Clinical Trial of Trametes versicolor in Women with Breast Cancer“, suggests that Coriolus versicolor is a safe immunotherapy for breast cancer patients that may correct radiotherapy-related immune defects. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23235533/ A study led by Chun-Kwok Wong, from the Department of Chemical Pathology of the Chinese University of Hong Kong at the Prince of Wales Hospital, Shatin, Hong Kong with the title “Immunomodulatory activities of Yunzhi and Danshen in post-treatment breast cancer patients“, suggests that Coriolus versicolor could be beneficial for promoting immunological function in post-treatment of breast cancer patients. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16047556/ An in vitro study led by Tomasz Jędrzejewski, in 2020 demonstrated that Turkey Tail disrupts tumour cell communication. The title of the study is “Protein-Bound Polysaccharides from Coriolus Versicolor Fungus Disrupt the Crosstalk Between Breast Cancer Cells and Macrophages through Inhibition of Angiogenic Cytokines Production and Shifting Tumour-Associated Macrophages from the M2 to M1 Subtype“. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32559360/ Another in vitro study from 2020, led by Małgorzata Pawlikowska, from the ‘Department of Immunology, Faculty of Biological and Veterinary Sciences, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Torun, Poland’, called “Protein-Bound Polysaccharides from Coriolus Versicolor Induce RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL-Mediated Necroptosis in ER-Positive Breast Cancer and Amelanotic Melanoma Cells”  provided novel insights into the effects of Turkey Tail on ER-positive breast cancer cells. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32531147/ A case report by Paul Stamets from 2012 journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.7453/gahmj.2012.1.5.007
