N6‐Methyladenosine (m6A) in Liver Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential
iNew Medicine, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2026.ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence highlights the critical role of epigenetic modifications, particularly N6‐methyladenosine (m6A), in liver disease. As the most abundant RNA modification in eukaryotic cells, m6A is dynamically regulated by multicomponent m6A methyltransferases (e.g., METTL3 and METTL14), demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5), and m6A‐binding ...

Interactions of arbutin with dry and hydrated bilayers
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1998 The glycosylated hydroquinone arbutin (4-hydroxyphenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside) is abundant in certain resurrection plants, which can survive almost complete dehydration for prolonged periods. Little is known about the role of arbutin in vivo, but it is thought to contribute toward survival of the plants in the dry state.

Simple and efficient synthesis of arbutin
Arkivoc, 2007 An efficient synthesis of arbutin, 4-hydroxyphenyl-D- glucopyranoside (1), in both α - and β -anomeric form, starting from penta-O-acetyl-α (β )-D- glucopyranoside (2) and 4-hydroxyphenylacetate (3) was developed. The BF3• Et2O-catalysed glycosylation reaction of 2 with 3 proceeds with complete retention of anomeric configuration.
