Description of Coprinus comatus extract 

Coprinus comatus is a common fungus often seen growing on lawns, along gravel roads and waste areas. The young fruit bodiesfirst appear as white cylinders emerging from the ground, then the bell-shaped capsopen out. The caps are white, and covered with scales—this is the origin of the common namesof the fungus. The gills beneath the cap are white, then pink, then turn black and secrete a black liquid filled with spores (hence the “ink cap” name). This mushroom is unusual because it will turn black and dissolve itself in a matter of hours after being picked or depositing spores.

The hypoglycemic activity of fermented mushroom of Coprinus comatus rich in vanadium (CCRV) was studied in this paper. Alloxan and adrenalin induced hyperglycemic mice were used in the study. The blood glucose and the HbA1c of the mice were analyzed, respectively. At the same time, the sugar tolerance of the normal mice was also determined. After the mice were administered (ig) with CCRV, the blood glucose and the HbA1c of alloxan-induced hyperglycemic mice decreased (p<0.05, p<0.01), ascension of blood glucose induced by adrenalin was inhibited (p<0.01) and the sugar tolerance of the normal mice was improved. Also, the body weight of the alloxan-induced hyperglycemic mice was increased gradually. In the fermented mushroom of C. comatus, vanadium at lower doses in combination with C. comatus, induced significant decreases of the blood glucose and HbA1c levels in hyperglycemic mice.
