Telomere shortening in breast cancer cells (MCF7) under treatment with low doses of the benzylisoquinoline alkaloid chelidonine. [PDF]
Telomeres, the specialized dynamic structures at chromosome ends, regularly shrink with every replication. Thus, they function as an internal molecular clock counting down the number of cell divisions. However, most cancer cells escape this limitation by

Since the Chelidonium majus (greater celandine) alkaloid sanguinarine has recently been characterized as a dual peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐α/γ ligand, sanguinarine and structurally related alkaloids were screened on nuclear receptors. Berberine and chelidonine were identified as Chelidonium majus alkaloids with selectivity for the two ...

Chelidonium majus L. (family Papaveraceae), commonly known as greater celandine or tetterwort, has been reported to have antibacterial and anticancer effects and chelidonine is known as a functional metabolite extracted from C. majus. In this study, we observed the cytotoxicity of the alkaloid, chelidonine, and investigated its functional mechanism in ...

Effects of endophytic fungus Y118 on physiological and biochemical indexes and quality improvement of Zanthoxylum Nitidum (Roxb.) DC [PDF]
To understand the effects of endophytic fungus Y118 on the physiological characteristics of Zanthoxylum nitidum (Roxb.) DC after co-culture with its host Zanthoxylum nitidum, we measured the plant growth index (dry root weight) of Zanthoxylum nitidum at ...

Genetic insights into alcohol-associated liver disease: integrative transcriptome-wide analysis identifies novel susceptibility genes [PDF]
BackgroundAlcohol-associated liver disease (ALD) is a chronic condition influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. While GWAS has identified ALD-related loci (PNPLA3, MBOAT7, TM6SF2), underlying genetic mechanisms and therapeutic targets ...
