Steaming soil is effective in eliminating invasive alien plants (IAPs) – part I: effect of exposure method

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 2032-2039, April 2025.
As regulations on chemical pesticides become more stringent, it is likely that there will be interest in water steam as an alternative approach for soil disinfestation. This study investigated the feasibility of utilizing a soil steaming device for thermal control of selected invasive alien plants and showed a promising mortality rate for their ...

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.

Betulin Protects Against Cardiac Hypertrophy by Improving AMPK/Nrf2‐Dependent Mitochondrial Function

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Betulin effectively mitigates pressure overload‐induced cardiac hypertrophy in both Ang II‐infused and TAC‐operated mice. Mechanistically, betulin activated AMPK phosphorylation, promoted Nrf2 nuclear translocation, and upregulated antioxidant genes (HO‐1 and NQO‐1), thereby restoring mitochondrial function in cardiomyocytes.

Pedunculoside Inhibits Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression by Activating the MAPK Signaling Pathway Through Targeting and Suppressing CDK4

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Pedunculoside targets and suppresses CDK4; consequently, it activates the MAPK pathway and inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma progression. ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major challenge in cancer prevention and treatment, highlighting the urgent need for effective and low‐toxicity anti‐HCC therapies. Recently, CDK4‐targeted inhibitors
