Targeting the Hippo/YAP Pathway: A Promising Approach for Cancer Therapy and Beyond
The potential of natural compounds to modulate the Hippo/YAP signaling pathway, a critical regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival, is explored. Dysregulation of this pathway is associated with various cancers, making it a target for therapeutic intervention.

Human Cytomegalovirus Infection Upregulates the Mitochondrial Transcription and Translation Machineries. [PDF]
UNLABELLED: Infection with human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) profoundly affects cellular metabolism. Like in tumor cells, HCMV infection increases glycolysis, and glucose carbon is shifted from the mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle to the biosynthesis of

Alkaloids Induce Programmed Cell Death in Bloodstream Forms of Trypanosomes (Trypanosoma b. brucei)
The potential induction of a programmed cell death (PCD) in Trypanosoma b. brucei by 55 alkaloids of the quinoline, quinolizidine, isoquinoline, indole, terpene, tropane, steroid, and piperidine type was studied by measuring DNA fragmentation and changes

The site of synthesis of the iron-sulfur subunits of the flavoprotein and iron-protein fractions of human NADH dehydrogenase [PDF]
The site of synthesis of the iron-sulfur subunits of the flavoprotein and iron-protein fractions of the human respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase has been investigated to test the possibility that any of them is synthesized in mitochondria.

In Vitro Leishmanicidal Efficacy of Synthesized Arylidene Analogues of Glitazone
ABSTRACT Diabetes is a fast‐growing health issue in low‐ and middle‐income countries, with ~80% of diabetics living in the tropics and sub‐tropics. It is a deadly condition claiming the lives of millions of individuals annually, with no therapeutic treatment available to date. The management of diabetes is thus limited to symptomatic relief by glycemic
