Antrodia cinnamomea is a fungus species described as new to science in 1995.[1] It causes brown heart rot of the aromatic tree Cinnamomum kanehirae. It is used in Taiwanese traditional medicine as a supposed remedy for cancer, hypertension, and hangover.[2] The annual market is worth over $100 million (US) in Taiwan alone. The 32.15 Mb genome containing 9,254 genes has been sequenced.[3]

Antrodia cinnamomea has been found to produce anti-obesogenic, anti-inflammatory and antidiabetic effects in high-fat diet-fed mice.[4]
