Modulatory Effects of Cirsimarin on Lung Cancer A549 Cells Migration in 2D and 3D Cultures Involves Transcriptional Regulation of Metalloproteinases

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 3, March 2026.
In 2D culture, the cirsimarin (i) decreased cell viability in both assays, (ii) induced apoptosis, (iii) reduced clonogenicity, (iv) prevented cell migration, (v) induced DNA damage, and (vi) negatively modulated gene expression. In the 3D model, reductions in spheroid viability, area, and cell migration were also observed.

Heterogeneity of iridoid biosynthesis in catmints: Molecular background in a phylogenetic context

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 694-718, March 2026.
Evolutionary gains and losses of key biosynthetic genes likely resulting from multiple independent evolutionary events explain why certain Nepeta (catnip) species produce both the active, cat‐attracting nepetalactones and sugar‐bound iridoids, while others make only the sugar‐bound forms, and some have lost iridoid production entirely.
