Phenolic composition and multi‐target bioactivities of Globularia alypum extracts across seasons
Abstract Background This study investigates the influence of seasonal variation on the phytochemical profile and biofunctional activities of ethanolic leaf extracts from Globularia alypum. Leaves collected across four seasons were extracted with a hydroethanolic solvent (80:20, v/v) and analyzed by LC‐ESI‐MS/MS.

Cryo‐EM structures of multiple‐peptide resistance factor (MprF) from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Cryo‐EM analysis of MprF from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveals a dimeric enzyme, distinct from Rhizobium homologues. The soluble GNAT domain contains a dynamic amphipathic helix (TTH) that adopts different positions in detergent micelle and nanodisc, relative to the membrane.

LIN28A blocks the EndMT process of high glucose‐induced HRMECs by stabilizing SIRT6 mRNA
LIN28A promotes mRNA stability of SIRT6 to activate the AMPK signaling, thereby inhibiting the EndMT process induced by HG in HRMECs. ABSTRACT Background Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a microvascular condition resulting from microangiopathy, causing gradual retinal damage and potential blindness.

Repeated evolution of cytochrome P450-mediated spiroketal steroid biosynthesis in plants
Diosgenin is a spiroketal steroidal natural product extracted from plants and used as the single most important precursor for the world steroid hormone industry. The sporadic occurrences of diosgenin in distantly related plants imply possible independent

Natural Products in Cancer Prevention and Therapy: Current Challenges and Future Directions
Natural products play a pivotal role in cancer therapy. They induce cancer cell death by reprogramming four metabolic pathways while precisely targeting the tumor microenvironment and immune cells. These compounds not only leverage novel delivery systems for innovative applications but also demonstrate unique therapeutic efficacy across clinical stages:

It has been demonstrated that fermentation of comminuted tubers of Dioscorea for 1 to 21 days apparently increases the yields of diosgenin. We find that fine comminution produces the same result without fermentation.
