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.

Establishment of a pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics model of Schisandra lignans against hippocampal neurotransmitters in AD rats based on microdi-alysis liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Objective: Our previous studies substantiated that the biological activity of Schisandra chinensis lignans during the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) was mediated by neurotransmitter levels, and 15 of its active components were identified. However,

Screening Analyses of Pinosylvin Stilbenes, Resin Acids and Lignans in Norwegian Conifers

Molecules, 2006
The content and distribution of stilbenes and resin acids in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) and spruce (Picea abies), sampled in central Norway, have been examined. The contents of pinosylvin stilbenes in pine heartwood/living knots were 0.2-2/2-8 % (w/w).

Lignans in Flaxseed [PDF]

Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2009
Lignans are phytoestrogens which are present in a wide variety of plants. Epidemiological studies indicate that phytoestrogen-rich diets reduce risk of various hormone-dependent cancers, heart disease, and osteroporosis. One of the reachest dietary sources of lignans are flaxseeds, with glycosides of secoisolariciresinol (SECO) and matairesinol (MAT ...

In situ monitoring of cell adhesion kinetics using label‐free optical biosensors: Evaluating anticancer potential and selectivity of natural compounds

VIEW, EarlyView.
The limitations of conventional techniques hinder the identification of natural compounds with anticancer potential in terms of speed, throughput, sensitivity, and capability of continuous monitoring of relevant biological effects. Novel label‐free optical biosensors represent new opportunities in the discovery of drug candidates, eliminating these ...

Investigation of Micro‐Nutrient Elemental Distribution in a Black Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Grain Using Synchrotron Assisted Microprobe X‐Ray Fluorescence Analysis at Indus‐2

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spatial localization of various essential dietary elements present in a black wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain has been investigated using synchrotron assisted micro X‐ray fluorescence measurements at BL‐16 beamline of Indus‐2 synchrotron facility. The results showed that most of the important dietary minerals like calcium (Ca), potassium (K)
