Dammarenediol II enhances etoposide‐induced apoptosis by targeting O‐GlcNAc transferase and Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling in liver cancer

Molecular Oncology, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1591-1611, June 2026.
Etoposide induces DNA damage, activating p53‐dependent apoptosis via caspase‐3/7, which cleaves PARP1. Dammarenediol II enhances this apoptotic pathway by suppressing O‐GlcNAc transferase activity, further decreasing O‐GlcNAcylation. The reduction in O‐GlcNAc levels boosts p53‐driven apoptosis and influences the Akt/GSK3β/mTOR signaling pathway ...

Ginsenoside Rb1 increases macrophage phagocytosis through p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase/Akt pathway

Journal of Ginseng Research, 2019
Background: Ginsenoside Rb1, a triterpene saponin, is derived from the Panax ginseng root and has potent antiinflammatory activity. In this study, we determined if Rb1 can increase macrophage phagocytosis and elucidated the underlying mechanisms. Methods:

Structural Characterization of Ginseng Adventitious Root Polysaccharides and Their Effects on Ameliorating Insulin Resistance

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Purified ginseng adventitious root polysaccharides (GARP) improve insulin resistance by enhancing glucose and lipid metabolism and reducing oxidative stress. These beneficial effects are mediated, at least in part, through activation of the Nrf2/Keap1 signaling pathway in cellular and animal models.

Polygonati Rhizoma Attenuates Oxidative Stress‐Induced Senescence in Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Network pharmacology identified the potential targets and pathways of Polygonati Rhizoma (PR) against aging‐related periodontitis through PPI, GO/KEGG enrichment, and molecular docking. Experimental validation in a D‐galactose‐induced senescence model of periodontal ligament stem cells showed that PR‐medicated serum attenuated cellular senescence and ...

Formulation and Pharmacological Evaluation of a Medicine‐Food Homology Herb‐Based Formula for Sleep Enhancement

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
This outlines the progress for developing a sleep‐modulating herbal formula (SMF). It begins with the identification of effective compounds and quality control, then uses network pharmacology and molecular docking to explain the mechanisms behind the observation found on the behavioural and neurobiological results in animal study.
