Dear Satish ji and Pankaj ji, This fungus indeed has ANTICANCER & IMMUNOMODULATING EFFECTS . T versicolor has been investigated to have PSK (krestin) and PSP these are two very important protein bound polysaccharides which shows certain activities like ...... 1. Activate T cells, natural killer cells, important 2. In the defence against tumour growth. 3. Increase white blood cell counts. 4. Increase cytokines, tumour necrosis factor. 5. Positive effect on apoptosis when combined with radiotherapy. 6. Most effective against lung & stomach cancer.
