==Medicinal properties==
The fungus is well-known and highly valued as a medicinal mushroom in Taiwan where it is known as niu-chang, niu-chang-ku, or niu-chang-chih. It is commonly used as an anti-cancer, anti-itching, anti-allergy, anti-fatigue,〔(Patent: Anti-fatigue cyclohexenone compounds from ''Antrodia camphorata'' )〕 and liver protective herb in Taiwanese traditional medicine. An extract was reported to slow the growth of human breast cancer cells. A water extract of mycelium grown in liquid culture has been reported to have antioxidant and anticancer properties.〔Hseu Y-C, Chang W-C, Hseu Y-T, Lee C-Y, Yech Y-J, Chen P-C, Chen J-Y, Yang H-L. (2002). "Protection of oxidative damage by aqueous extract from ''Antrodia camphorata'' mycelia in normal human erythrocytes". ''Life Sciences'' 71(4): 469–482.〕 This medicinal fungus is relatively unknown outside of Taiwan and virtually unknown in the Western world.〔(''A. camphorata'' ) Mushroommatrix.com〕
