Lignan from Alnus japonica Inhibits Adipocyte Differentiation via Cell Cycle and FOXO1 Regulation

Molecules, 2020
In the present study, we isolated a lignan ((−)-(2R,3R)-1,4-O-diferuloylsecoisolariciresinol, DFS) from Alnus japonica and evaluated its antiobesity potential in vitro. We also determined its mechanism of action in a mouse pre-adipocyte 3T3-L1 cell line.

Arctiin suppresses H9N2 avian influenza virus-mediated inflammation via activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling

BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies, 2021
Background H9N2 avian influenza viruses (AIVs) infect avian and mammalian hosts and provide internal genes for new emerging highly pathogenic avian viruses that cause severe pneumonia with high mortality, for which few medications are available. Arctiin,

The barley–malt–beer chain: A process and food safety approach

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract This review addresses the current state of knowledge on the barley–malt–beer chain and its main physical, chemical, and microbiological contaminants, with particular emphasis on spoilage microorganisms and their toxic metabolites. The barley–malt–beer production chain represents a mature and globally relevant agro‐industrial sector that ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Harnessing Natural Compounds in Psoriasis: Targeting Cellular Pathways for Effective Therapy

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Natural compounds act on key cellular pathways in psoriasis by suppressing keratinocyte hyperproliferation, modulating Th17/IL‐17‐mediated immune responses, and reducing oxidative stress. These multi‐target effects highlight their potential as safer adjunctive therapies alongside conventional treatments.

Phytochemical‐Based Strategies for Lung Cancer: Clinical Insights Into Pleiotropic Molecular Signaling and Therapeutic Roles

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Lung cancer (LC) remains the leading cause of global cancer‐related death. Phytochemicals from medicinal plants are increasingly being considered as potential LC treatment agents due to their multi‐targeted action, safety, and accessibility. These have anticancer properties by regulating key molecular signaling pathways.
