En-DPS

En-DPS is an enzyme-extractable polysaccharide derived from the mushroom *Dictyophora indusiata* (commonly known as bamboo pith or long net stinkhorn). Research in murine models has demonstrated that En-DPS possesses significant antihyperlipidemic and hepatoprotective properties. It has been shown to improve lipid profiles in both serum and liver, strengthen antioxidant status, and attenuate hepatic cell injury. Furthermore, En-DPS exhibits the ability to restrain the rise of blood sugar levels, suggesting potential utility in managing glucose intolerance. As a natural bioactive compound, it is primarily investigated for its potential as a therapeutic or hepatoprotective agent in metabolic and liver diseases.
