dc.description.abstractMushrooms are rich in several bioactive metabolites among them are phenolic compounds, terpenoids, polysaccharides, lectins, and steroids including mycosterols, namely ergosterol [1]. Ethanolic extracts prepared by maceration of several mushroom species have been recently described as having antiinflammatory properties [2]. In the present work, ethanolic extracts of Agaricus bisporus L., Lentinus edodes (Berk.) Pegler and Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq. ex Fr.) P.Kumm., purchased from a local supermarket in the Northeast of Portugal, were obtained by Soxhlet and chemically characterized in terms of ergosterol content by HPLC-UV. The antioxidant properties of these extracts were evaluated through DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity (RSA), reducing power (RP), p. carotene bleaching inhibition (CBI) and lipid peroxidation inhibition in TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) assay (LPI); the antioxidant activity of ergosterol was also evaluated by the DPPH assay. The anti-inflammatory activity of the same extracts and ergosterol was evaluated in LPS (lipopolysaccharide) stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages, through the inhibition of NO production. A. bisporus revealed the highest content in ergosterol (44.8 ± 0.4 mg/ g extract) followed by P. ostreatus (34 ± 3 mg/ g extract) and finally L. edodes (8.9 ± 0.1 mg/ g extract). A. bisporus showed the highest RSA, RP and CBI (EC50 values= 7.0 ± 0.8, 2.3 ± 0.1 and 1.4 ± 0.1 mg/mL, respectively), while L. edodes presented the highest LPI (2.5 ± 0.1 mg/mL ); ergosterol revealed higher RSA (0.46±0. 0 I mg/mL) than the extracts. Concerning the anti-inflammatory potential, the most efficient species was L. edodes (lC50 value = 164 ± 16 J.lg/mL), followed by A. bisporus (185 ± 16 J.lg/mL) and finally P. ostreatus (290 ± 10 J.lg/mL). However, ergosterol presented lower activity (338 ± 23 J.lg/mL) due to its low solubility in the culture medium. The higher antioxidant properties displayed by A. bisporus can be related with its higher ergosterol content, while in the anti-inflammatory activity this relation cannot be established also due to the low solubility of ergosterol in the cells culture medium, decreasing the ergosterol availability. More studies are being conducted regarding the ergosterol solubility. Several compounds have been implicated in the bioactivity of mushrooms and in this study we have found that ergosterol can give an important contribution.pt_PT
