Dauricine Overcomes Osimertinib Resistance in Lung Cancer by Inducing Ferroptosis via Stabilizing SAT1. [PDF]

Cancer Sci
Our study explores the potential of dauricine, a bioactive compound from Menispermum dauricum, to overcome osimertinib resistance in lung cancer. We demonstrate that dauricine, when combined with osimertinib, induces ferroptosis in resistant lung cancer cells by stabilizing SAT1, a key enzyme in oxidative stress regulation.

Exploration of the Components and Pharmacological Mechanisms of Keyin Pill-Induced Liver Injury Based on Network Pharmacology. [PDF]

Evid Based Complement Alternat Med, 2022
Background. Keyin pill (KP), a patented medicine in China, is used to treat psoriasis. However, KP has been reported to have liver toxicity, but its toxic substance basis and underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the pharmacological mechanisms and components of KP‐induced liver injury through animal experiments ...

In the nectar, there are answers: exploring the intersection of colored nectars and reactive oxygen species in manipulating pollinator behavior. [PDF]

New Phytol
Summary Nectar, a vital mediator of plant–pollinator interactions, exhibits remarkable chemical diversity beyond sugars, including reactive oxygen species and specialized metabolites such as pigments. Colored nectars, present in over 70 species, function as visual signals, inhibitors of microbial growth, or nutritional rewards, underscoring their ...
