Haplotype‐resolved autotetraploid genome of Dioscorea nipponica provides insights into recent polyploidization, metabolic rewiring, and environmental adaptation

The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 6, September 2026.
SUMMARY Whole‐genome duplication (WGD, or polyploidization) is a major evolutionary force in plants, yet the genomic, transcriptional, and metabolic consequences of autopolyploidy remain less understood than those of allopolyploidy. Dioscorea nipponica, a medicinal species producing diosgenin‐type steroidal saponins, harbors both diploid and ...

Diosgenin Alleviates Age‐Related Sarcopenia by Promoting Satellite Cell Proliferation and Myogenic Differentiation via Activation of the SIRT1/PGC‐1α Signaling Pathway

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
As a critical bioactive component of Polygonatum sibiricum, diosgenin improves age‐related declines in skeletal muscle mass and function by activating the SIRT1/PGC‐1α pathway, upregulating the expression of the myokine METRNL and IGF‐1, and promoting satellite cell proliferation and myogenic differentiation.
