AlkaPlorer: A database‐driven explorer for natural alkaloids and derivatives

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The alkaloid database AlkaPlorer integrates over 130,000 compounds across 12,250 species. By linking chemical structures with biological and evolutionary data, it reveals how these molecules evolve and function. This platform serves as a vital resource for AI‐driven discovery in plant metabolism and modern drug development. ABSTRACT Alkaloids, renowned

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Invasive plants often outcompete co‐occurring native species by expressing acquisitive functional traits that promote high photosynthetic capacity. However, it remains unclear whether these traits are newly evolved in the introduced (‘away’) range or if invaders arrived preadapted with superior traits from their native (‘home’) range.

Molecular Mechanism of Mulberrin Regulating Lipid Metabolism Homeostasis Based on the Gut–Liver Axis Fiaf/AMPK Signaling Pathway

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
The molecular mechanism for mulberrin regulating lipid metabolism homeostasis. ABSTRACT Lipid metabolism disorders and the induced metabolic diseases have risen to become one of the primary public health issues. Our preliminary experimental results confirmed that mulberry leaf flavonoid extract exhibited efficacy in lipid metabolism regulation; the ...

Integrating Transcriptomics and Gut Microbiota Analysis Reveals the Anti‐Osteoporotic Mechanisms of Wine and Oil Co‐Processed Epimedium

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 2, 31 January 2026.
Firstly, we determined the content of the components in the co‐products of Epimedium wine and oil. Secondly, the clinical indications of the co‐products of Epimedium wine and oil were determined by in vitro cell experiments. Finally, the in vivo animal model was used for experimental verification.

Synthesis of Benzopyrans and Quinolines with Nitrogenated Chain and Their Cytotoxicity Against Human Cancer Cell Lines

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 2, January 2026.
Natural products and/or their structural analogs represent the greatest number of approved small‐molecules as antitumor agents. We report the synthesis of 2‐propanamide and 2‐propanamine dihydrobenzopyrans and 2‐ and 2,3‐disubstituted quinolines to evaluate their cytotoxicity against human A549 (lung), A2058 (melanoma), HepG2 (liver), MCF‐7 (breast ...
