Irigenin Modulates BL‐Induced Pyroptosis in Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Through p38 MAPK and NFκB Pathways

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Irigenin alleviates blue light‐induced RPE cell damage by inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome and p38/NF‐κB signalling, showing potential for AMD prevention. ABSTRACT Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD), a primary cause of vision loss among older adults, is strongly associated with inflammatory processes.

Natural Products in Cancer Prevention and Therapy: Current Challenges and Future Directions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
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:

Combined Analysis of Transcriptome and Metabolome Explains the Differences in Pulp Color in Jackfruit

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The pulp color of jackfruit reflects variations in its nutritional composition and influences market preference. We investigated the mechanism underlying pulp coloration through an integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis of three jackfruit cultivars—light yellow “THA”, yellow “GTM”, and orange “YNH”.

Molecular basis and biological relevance of bacterial and plant pinoresinol/lariciresinol reductase specificities

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract A bacterial pinoresinol/lariciresinol reductase (PLR) homolog named NrPinZ was obtained from a Novosphingobium rhizosphaerae sp. LY bacterial strain, with NrPinZ being part of its 5‐step biochemical system catabolizing pinoresinol into coniferyl aldehyde and vanillin.

Contrast in Mycorrhizal Associations Leads to Divergent Rhizosphere Metabolomes and Plant–Soil Feedback Among Grassland Species

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
Most terrestrial plants are colonised by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi but vary in the degree to which they benefit from and depend on these fungi. Here we show that plants can make the interaction with mycorrhizal fungi more beneficial to themselves by regulating the chemical composition of organic compounds released by plant roots into the soil ...
