Production of fungal hypocrellin photosensitizers: Exploiting bambusicolous fungi and elicitation strategies in mycelium cultures

Hypocrellins, a group of naturally occurring perylenequinone pigments produced by Shiraia bambusicola, are notable for their potential use in photodynamic therapy (PDT) for treating cancers and viruses. Traditionally, hypocrellins have been extracted from the fruiting bodies of S. bambusicola, a par...
