Phytochemical‐Based Strategies for Lung Cancer: Clinical Insights Into Pleiotropic Molecular Signaling and Therapeutic Roles

Phytotherapy Research, Volume 40, Issue 4, Page 2003-2024, April 2026.
Lung cancer (LC) remains the leading cause of global cancer‐related death. Phytochemicals from medicinal plants are increasingly being considered as potential LC treatment agents due to their multi‐targeted action, safety, and accessibility. These have anticancer properties by regulating key molecular signaling pathways.

First report in Italy of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) (Thysanoptera, Thripidae), a major threat for Sicilian horticulture and floriculture

EPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 1, Page 130-137, April 2026.
Abstract The presence of Thrips parvispinus (Karny, 1922) is reported for the first time in Italy. Prior to this finding, within Europe the pest was only known to be established in Spain. The discovery happened in a greenhouse cultivating gerberas in south‐eastern Sicily, a region recognized as Italy's primary and one of Europe's most important ...
