The research goals of presented work consisted of determination of zinc and indole compounds that are released into artificial digestive juices from Tricholoma equestre species. During the experiment freeze-dried samples of wild growing fruiting bodies and mycelia from in vitro cultures from liquid Oddoux medium were extracted to artificial digestive juices (saliva, gastric juice and intestinal juice). In the next step the determination of examined compounds was done by RP-HPLC for indole compounds and DP ASV for zinc. Furthermore it was decided to check weather this species has any beneficial properties for health. The extraction of researched material in conditions imitating human digestive tract allows determination of true amounts of elements released to artificial digestive juices and their beneficial influence (a specially designed and constructed apparatus Gastroel-2014 was applied). The indole compound with the highest quantity was 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan, both in fruiting bodies and in biomass from in vitro cultures of T. equestre (up to 352.47 mg/100 g d.w.). Serotonin and L-tryptophan was determined in all analysed samples, but their amounts were significantly lower than the ones found for 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan. The amounts of zinc on the other hand showed that the biggest concentration of zinc can be obtained for fruiting bodies and biomass from in vitro cultures to both artificial saliva and gastric juice after 120 minutes of digestion (6.83 14.4 mg/100 g d.w. retrospectively) in conditions that imitate human digestive track.

Mushrooms are able to accumulate both primary and secondary metabolites. Medicinal and antioxidant properties of mushrooms are an excellent combination of their nutrition value. Recent studies have demonstrated that edible mushroom species contain non–hallucinogenic indole compounds and their derivatives. The indole skeleton is the basis of the substances serving important functions in the human body, such as serotonin and melatonin. These compounds fulfill the role of neurotransmitters or their precursors, exhibit antioxidant, anticancer, anti–aging actions, regulate the diurnal cycle in humans and participate in blood coagulation. These compounds and their derivatives are also anti– inflammatory and analgesic therapeutics.
