Cryptocaryone Exhibits ROS/MAPK‐Dependent Antiproliferative and Apoptosis‐Inducing Effects on Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Cells and Proof‐of‐Concept Breast Cancer Mouse Model

Drug Development Research, Volume 87, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Omics’ technologies have enabled clinicians to gain previously unprecedented insights into the molecular complexity and clinical heterogeneity of triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC). Increasingly it is being realized that TNBC does not respond well to current targeted therapies.

Berberine Inhibited the Proliferation of Cancer Cells by Suppressing the Activity of Tumor Pyruvate Kinase M2

Natural Product Communications, 2017
Berberine, an isoquinoline alkaloid extracted from coptis , exerts anti-proliferation and anticancer properties. Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) is a key enzyme of aerobic glycolysis and considered as the potential anticancer target.

Natural Products as the Modulators of Gut Microbiota: A Pool for the Development of New Treatment Against Obesity?

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 3, May 2026.
Natural compounds regulate gut microbiota by improving microbial balance and increasing probiotics, which boost short‐chain fatty acid production to alleviate insulin resistance and inflammation. Additionally, they stimulate appetite‐suppressing hormones through bile acid signaling, while inhibiting pathogenic bacteria to repair intestinal barrier ...

Effects of Berberine on Adipose Tissues and Kidney Function in 3T3-L1 Cells and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats

Natural Product Communications, 2015
We aimed to investigate the effect of berberine on adipose tissues, as well as its effect on renal injury in 3T3-L1 cells and spontaneously hypertensive rats. 3T3-L1 cells were cultured and treated with berberine (5–20 μM) from days 3 to 8.

Liver Fibrosis: Molecular Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Interventions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
We systematically summarized the etiologies, diagnostic approaches, and pathogenic mechanisms of liver fibrosis. Also, the therapeutic interventions for liver fibrosis were systematically classified into two main categories: etiological treatment and mechanism‐based antifibrotic therapies.

Intratumoral Microorganisms in Tumors: Current Understanding and Emerging Therapeutic Strategies

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Tumors are no longer viewed as sterile but dynamic ecosystems harboring low‐biomass intratumoral microbiota. These microbes, derived from gut, oral cavity, or circulation, shape tumorigenesis and therapy response via core mechanisms: immunomodulation (regulating T cells, macrophages), metabolic reprogramming (SCFAs, indoles, bile acids), chronic ...

Targeting Tumor Stroma: Current Challenges and Future Directions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Figure 1. Mechanism of ECM reprogramming. Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs), cancer‐associated macrophages (CAMs), and other mesenchymal cells alter the ECM composition and increase its stiffness by depositing matrix components such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, and secreting cross‐linking agents like lysyl oxidase homolog 2 (LOXL2).

The Structure of the Chemotype Determining Locus in Cannabis sativa

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The chemical phenotype (chemotype) of Cannabis sativa is defined by the ratio of cannabidiolic acid (CBDA) to Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA). Although the Mendelian segregation of these traits suggests a single‐locus biallelic system, recent sequencing and phylogenetic evidence indicate they are encoded by two distinct, tightly linked ...
