Promoting the accumulation of scopolamine and hyoscyamine in Hyoscyamus niger L. through EMS based mutagenesis.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The overexploitation of medicinal plants is depleting gene pool at an alarming rate. In this scenario inducing the genetic variability through targeted mutations could be beneficial in generating varieties with increased content of active compounds.

High‐Throughput Screening Using the Self‐Controlled Tree‐Based Scan Statistic to Identify Medications Associated With Hospitalization for Severe Acute Liver Injury

Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Medications associated with acute liver injury (ALI) are primarily identified by case reports. High‐throughput screening of real‐world data could be leveraged to detect hepatotoxicity signals. Objective To apply tree‐based scan statistics in real‐world data to identify drugs associated with hospitalization for severe ALI among ...

Concurrent Alcohol Use and the Relative Risk of Community‐Acquired Pneumonia Associated With Anticholinergic and Non‐Anticholinergic Neurocognitively Active Medication Receipt: A National Nested Case–Control Study Among US Veterans

Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety, Volume 34, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Purpose Anticholinergic medications and alcohol each independently increase the risk of community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP). Whether non‐anticholinergic neurocognitively active medications also increase risk, and if alcohol modifies these associations, remains unclear. Methods We conducted a nested case–control study using Veterans Aging Cohort

Roots of Indian heliotrope (Heliotropium indicum) produce simple pyrrolizidine alkaloids using the same homospermidine oxidase involved in biosynthesis of complex pyrrolizidine alkaloids in aerial parts

Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 7, Page 1378-1390, December 2025.
Indian heliotrope uses the same oxidase to produce complex pyrrolizidine alkaloid esters in aerial parts and simple pyrrolizidine alkaloids in roots. Abstract Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are toxic specialized metabolites found in several plant lineages with independent evolutionary origins.
