Tremella polysaccharide: The molecular mechanisms of its drug action
Progress in molecular biology and translational science (2019) · Systematic review
In this chapter, 113 independent studies involving in biochemical, pharmacological, and clinical studies of TFPS during the past 46 years (1972-2018) on the base of PubMed, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) and Wanfang database search are summarized.
Based on systematic reviews of marine collagen for skin applications. Studies show variable results with 8-12 week protocols. Fish source and peptide size affect bioavailability. Most studies used 5-10g daily doses.
Based on 2 RCTs showing improvements in memory and response times. One study used snow fungus in combination with other ingredients, limiting specificity to Tremella alone. Adverse event rates were similar across groups (35-41%).
