Abstract
To develop a new antidementia acetycholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor from edible mushrooms, the inhibitory effects on AChE of water and ethanol extracts from various edible mushrooms were measured. Among the tested compounds, 70% ethanol extracts from Tremella fuciformis showed the highest AChE inhibitory activity, at 25.3% (ic50: 9.9 mg). Water extracts from the fruiting body of
