Plant Toxins: Poison or Therapeutic?
Many plants that are classed as poisonous also have therapeutic uses, and this is illustrated using members of the Drimia and Digitalis genera which are sources of cardiac glycosides.

Natural cardiac glycosides have positive inotropic heart effects but at high, toxic doses they can cause life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. Here we present the first Croatian case of a 16-year-old girl who attempted suicide by eating dried oleander ...

Antiproliferative Cardiac Glycosides from the Latex of Antiaris toxicaria
Phytochemical investigation of the latex of Antiaris toxicaria resulted in the isolation of 15 new [antiarosides J–X (1–15)] and 17 known cardiac glycosides. The effects of the cardiac glycosides on apoptosis and the expression of orphan nuclear receptor

Senolytics and exercise: Dual modalities for rejuvenating muscle
Abstract figure legend The role of senolytics on the heart and skeletal muscle. Senescent cell burden increases with ageing, disuse and disease. The senolytics dasatinib+quercetin (D+Q), navitoclax and fisetin, as well as exercise, eliminate senescent cells, reducing senescent cell burden and their senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP ...

Substrate scope of ancestral versus modern family‐1 glycosidases
Abstract Experimental studies support that protein engineering based on ancestral sequence reconstruction often leads to variants with biotechnologically useful biomolecular properties. These may include high stability, enhanced conformational flexibility and a modified catalysis range.
