Computational Bioprospection of Selected South African Essential Oils for Inhibition of Aldose Reductase and Sorbitol Dehydrogenase for Diabetes Therapy

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 43, November 17, 2025.
This study computationally identifies quercetin‐7‐O‐glucoside (Q7G) as a potential dual inhibitor of aldose reductase and sorbitol dehydrogenase, and quercetin‐3,7‐diglucoside (Q37DG) as a potential sorbitol dehydrogenase inhibitor. These two compounds are traceable to South African Agathosma betulina essential oils and have remarkable binding ...

Unveiling the Evolutionary History of European Vipers and Their Venoms From a Multi‐Omic Approach

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Snake genomes attract significant attention from multiple disciplines, including medicine, drug bioprospection, and evolutionary biology. However, genomic research within the Viperidae family has mostly focused on the subfamily Crotalinae, while the true vipers (Viperinae) have largely been overlooked.
