Shiitake mushroom (Lentinula edodes) stipe extracts, regardless of drying method, significantly reduced osteoclast formation in vitro by suppressing a key regulator of bone breakdown. In an osteoporosis-induced zebrafish model, hot-air dried stipe extract restored bone mineralization and reversed steroid-induced bone loss.
