Silymarin and Its Isolated Flavanonol Lignans Are Liver X Receptor Antagonists

Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 359, Issue 6, June 2026.
Despite its long tradition in the treatment of liver‐related ailments, the precise mode of action of the milk thistle fruit extract remains vague. Here we identified liver X receptor as a molecular target of silymarin, a mixture of bioactive compounds from milk thistle extract, and its major flavanonol lignan components, which account for their anti ...

Deep Volumetric Super‐Resolution Imaging in Thick Biological Specimens With Sparse Scanning SIM

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
Sparse scanning structured illumination microscopy (SS‐SIM) extends the axial depth in super‐resolution fluorescence imaging by combining rapid laser scanning, pixel‐addressed intensity modulation, and sCMOS camera detection. SS‐SIM yields 1.6× lateral and 1.7× axial resolution gains over wide‐field microscopy and enables imaging through 300–600 µm ...

Convergence and parallelism in the evolution of plant metabolism

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 1013-1031, April 2026.
Similar traits in different organisms may originate from shared ancestry or evolve independently. The terminology used to define phenotypic similarity is often confusing. This review attempts to clarify the definitions and present examples from plant domestication and specialized metabolism to explain how complex traits evolve repeatedly in plants ...

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.
