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

Invasive plants optimize leaf nitrogen allocation in photosynthesis
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.
