Shikonin promotes osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells by modulating the p38 MAPK/ETS transcription factor 1/cementum protein 1 axis in vitro

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, Volume 20, Issue 3, September 2026.
Our study revealed that Shikonin enhanced osteogenic differentiation by promoting the ELK1/CEMP1 axis via the activation of p38 MAPK signaling in PDLSCs. This indicated that Shikonin may serve as a candidate drug, while the ELK1/CEMP1 axis may be identified as a valuable pathway for promoting the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.

Molecular Mechanisms of Food Bioactive Constituents in the Management of Obesity and Hypertension: A Critical Review

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Obesity and hypertension co‐exist and share molecular mechanisms in terms of dietary therapy, modulated by food bioactive constituents. ABSTRACT Obesity and hypertension are among the most pressing global public health challenges. They frequently co‐exist, with obesity‐related hypertension accounting for an estimated 75% of the hypertension burden ...
