Bioactive Phenolic Compounds in Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Implications for Cardiovascular Health [PDF]
Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is rich in bioactive polyphenols that exert antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and anti‐atherogenic effects. These compounds improve endothelial function, modulate lipid metabolism, and reduce platelet aggregation, contributing to cardiovascular protection. Regular consumption of phenolic‐rich EVOO, as part of a Mediterranean

Ferroptosis‐Inhibitory Effect and Possible Mechanisms of Ellagitannin Geraniin
The search for safe and effective ferroptosis‐inhibitors has become an important topic. Geraniin, an ellagitannin bearing hexahydroxydiphenoyl (HHDP) and dehydrohexahydroxydiphenoyl (DHHDP) groups, was observed to inhibit erastin‐induced ferroptosis in ...

Bottom–up and top–down drivers influence urbanization effects on insect herbivory in oaks
Urban forests provide essential ecosystem services, including pest control, biodiversity conservation, and human health benefits. Herbivory is a widespread biotic interaction that shapes ecosystem functions, such as primary productivity and soil fertility, which underpin these services.

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.
