Red era: Dyeing yak hair fibres red with in situ generated silver nanoparticles using silver nitrate and a flavonoid‐containing plant extract

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Plants and their extracts have been used for dyeing fabrics, skin and hair for thousands of years and have been experiencing a revival in the last years due to increasing health risks arising from oxidative hair dye precursors. We developed a novel two‐step method to dye keratin fibres based on in situ formed silver nanoparticles including a ...

Woollen fabric design with bioactive properties using Anatolian sweetgum tree (Liquidambar orientalis L.) leaves and fruits

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The recent focus among natural dyers is on identifying and utilising new natural dye sources. The current study explored the potential of the Anatolian sweetgum tree's leaves and fruits in providing bioactive properties with wool dyeing. In the dyeing process, iron (II) sulphate, alum, tannic acid and citric acid were used, and different ...

Reinventing henna: Enzyme‐catalysed colour release from stabilized Lawsonia inermis L. extracts

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The instability and reduced dyeing performance of a cosmetic formulation containing 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (lawsone), derived from Lawsonia inermis L., is demonstrated in comparison to a novel two‐component system. This system comprises one formulation with naturally occurring lawsone precursors and a second containing a specific hydrolase ...

Kaempferol Mitigates CSE-Induced Lung Injury and Epithelial Cell Ferroptosis via Modulating Nrf2/NCOA4/GPx4 Axis. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Mol Med
ABSTRACT Ferroptosis, an iron‐dependent regulated necrosis driven by redox imbalance, plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Kaempferol (KF), a bioactive flavonoid from Polygonati Rhizoma, exhibits anti‐ferroptotic properties in lipid peroxidation disorders, yet its molecular mechanism against ...

Natural‐based antioxidants in cosmeceuticals: Extraction, bioavailability and skin ageing applications

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Natural antioxidants from plants, fruits, seeds and fungi combat ageing by neutralizing free radicals, boosting collagen and protecting against UV damage. Enhanced by green extraction and smart delivery systems, they offer powerful anti‐inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits.

Light regulates tomato fruit metabolome via SlDML2‐mediated global DNA demethylation

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In tomato growth and development, red and blue light signals are captured by the photoreceptors phyB2 and CRY1a, which kickstart tomato fruit ripening by activating HY5, which activates DNA demethylation via DML2 to trigger a metabolic and ripening transformation cascade within the tomato.

Matrix Metalloproteinases in Periodontal and Peri‐Implant Diseases: Contribution to Their Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates the role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) across the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and therapeutics of periodontal and peri‐implant diseases. Microbial and host stimuli trigger MMP activation leading to extracellular matrix breakdown, point‐of‐care aMMP‐8 detection aids diagnosis, and adjunctive or AI‐assisted ...

Requirement of a Plasmid-Encoded Catalase for Survival of \u3cem\u3eRhizobium etli\u3c/em\u3e CFN42 in a Polyphenol-Rich Environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria collectively called rhizobia are adapted to live in polyphenol-rich environments. The mechanisms that allow these bacteria to overcome toxic concentrations of plant polyphenols have not been clearly elucidated.

Optimization of carbon and nitrogen utilization for enhanced photosynthesis, biomass and yield by coexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, aspartate aminotransferase and glutamine synthetase in Brassica juncea

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Coexpression of genes involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) metabolism offers a promising avenue for improving crop yield. This study investigated the impact of coexpressing phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase [ZmPEPC (P)], aspartate aminotransferase [GmAspAT (A)] and glutamine synthetase [NtGS (G)] in Brassica juncea to enhance plant yield ...
