Lactobacillus acidophilus Metabolizes Dietary Plant Glucosides and Externalizes Their Bioactive Phytochemicals [PDF]

, 2017
Therapeutically active glycosylated phytochemicals are ubiquitous in the human diet. The human gut microbiota (HGM) modulates the bioactivities of these compounds, which consequently affect host physiology and microbiota composition.

Comparison of the Phytohormones Genistein, Resveratrol and 8-Prenylnaringenin as Agents for Preventing Osteoporosis

Planta Medica, 2008
As the average age of society increases, identifying and preventing osteoporosis becomes more important. According to the results of the Women's Health Initiative study, substitution of estradiol is not recommended in hormone replacement therapy (HRT), although phytoestrogens might be a safe alternative.

Characterization of Bioactive Compounds and Evaluation of Antimicrobial Activity of Humulus lupulus (L.) cv. Cascade Leaves Throughout the Growing Season

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) is recognised for its abundance of bioactive compounds, which make it a valuable natural resource. While much of the research has focused on the cones, hop leaves remain relatively unexplored, particularly in terms of changes occurring throughout the plant's growing cycle.

An Updated Review of the Anticancer Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential of Naringenin

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2025.
Naringenin is a bioactive compound widely distributed in the citrus family, belonging to polyphenols known for several health‐promoting properties, including anticancer activity. Several evidence‐based reports have proved that Naringenin can reduce tumorigenesis via inhibiting NRF2, TNF, NF‐κB, NR3C1, P13K/AKT, TGF‐β1/Smad3, and Bcl‐2 expression ...
