This was the first analysis of this type, covering both sporocarp and in vitro culture isolates. The analyses performed under this study allowed more specific identification of the metabolite composition in Sarcodon imbricatus sporocarps and determination of the biosynthetic abilities of the in vitro mycelium cultures. It has been demonstrated that in vitro cultures do maintain ability to synthesize a range of metabolites occurring in the sporocarps, like for example ergosterol, indole compounds and phenolic acids. On the other hand, in vitro cultures have the ability to produce compounds, which are not present in the sporocarps. This fact is demonstrated by the difference in qualitative composition of fatty acids between the sporocarps and the in vitro mycelium. Results of the performed biological activity analyses lead to the conclusion that Sarcodon imbricatus may be qualified as a species with potential therapeutic properties and that the polysaccharide fractions isolated from both the sporocarps and in vitro cultures may be deemed as compounds responsible for therapeutic effects. The results of this study are not only cognitive but they also have practical application potential. It has demonstrated that in vitro cultures may be an alternative, high\-yield source of a variety of biologically active metabolites."]
