Lippia umbellata Cav.: Chemical Composition, Insecticidal, and Antimicrobial Activities

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hexane extracts of Lippia umbellata leaves and flowers contain lupenone, α‐amyrin, and hentriacontane. They exhibit insecticidal activity against Drosophila melanogaster and inhibit AChE in vitro and in silico. Furthermore, the extracts can inhibit the growth of medically important bacteria and yeasts, including multidrug‐resistant strains.

Hydrogen Sulfide Delivery in Sulfurous Thermal Waters: Saturnia as a Translational Model for Gasotransmitter Pharmacology—A Narrative Review

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gasotransmitter regulating redox balance, inflammation, and vascular tone, but reproducing the spatial and kinetic features of endogenous production remains challenging. We examine sulfurous thermal waters as natural contexts of sustained H2S exposure, using the Saturnia springs (Tuscany ...
