High‐throughput transcriptome mining and in silico screening reveal saccharide feeding stimulants for Cydia pomonella larvae

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
We identified and characterized the gustatory and ionotropic receptors of Cydia pomonella using transcriptomics and in silico approaches, linking candidate sugar receptors to larval feeding attraction. Functional assays and behavioral tests highlighted isoquercitrin as a key feeding stimulant, providing a foundation for olfactory‐ and taste‐based pest ...

Cucurbitacin E inhibits the Yes‑associated protein signaling pathway and suppresses brain metastasis of human non‑small cell lung cancer in a murine model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Human non‑small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is associated with an extremely poor prognosis especially for the 40% of patients who develop brain metastasis, and few treatment strategies exist.

Mechanistic Insights for Microbiome Application in Plant Disease Resistance

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review summarises the mechanisms underlying plant‐guided microbiome modulation and probiotic‐mediated disease suppression. Additionally, it highlights the challenges to be addressed for a better microbiome application of disease resistance in sustainable agriculture and proposes possible strategies. Figure was created with BioRender.

Dynamics of short- and long-term association between a bacterial plant pathogen and its arthropod vector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The dynamics of association between pathogens and vectors can strongly influence epidemiology. It has been proposed that wilt disease epidemics in cucurbit populations are sustained by persistent colonization of beetle vectors (Acalymma vittatum) by the ...

Uncovering the Key Factors Influencing Phytochemical and Phytopharmacological Properties During Medicinal Plant Processing

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
From farm to pharma, this review details the engineering of quality in medicinal plants through a science‐driven approach: it first elucidates how genetic and environmental factors inscribe the plant's phytochemical and phytopharmacological profile before harvest, and then dissects the postharvest techniques and technologies—chemical and thermal pre ...

Anti-Diabetic Effects of Cucurbitacins from Ibervillea lindheimeri on Induced Mouse Diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, 2022
Mexico has a great tradition of using medicinal plants against diabetes. For example, species from the genus Ibervillea traditionally known as “wereque” in Mexican popular medicine have a long ethnobotanical history as anti-diabetic agents.

The involvement of the noradrenergic system in the antinociceptive effect of cucurbitacin D on mice with paclitaxel-induced neuropathic pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Paclitaxel (sold under the brand name Taxol) is a chemotherapeutic drug that is widely used to treat cancer. However, it can also induce peripheral neuropathy, which limits its use.

Multi‐Omics Evidence Linking Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction Intervention to Atherosclerosis Mitigation and Gut Microbiota–Bile Acid Signatures in ApoE−/− Mice

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Gualou Xiebai Banxia Decoction (GXBD) promotes atherosclerotic plaque stabilization via the “gut microbiota—bile acid—host” axis. GXBD treatment remodels the gut microbiota, promoting the production of secondary bile acids (11‐LCA and 23‐DCA).

A Micropropagation Protocol for Ecballium elaterium (L.) A. Rich [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
E. elaterium seeds were obtained from immature fruit collected in the Southern region of Malta. The fruit were washed with tap water for 15 min., surface sterilized with 70% ethanol for 30 sec, soaked in 10% hypochlorite solution for 20 min and rinsed in
