Atorvastatin Reduces Alcohol‐Related Cardiac and Liver Tissue Damage, Oxidative Stress, Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Thiol‐Disulfide Imbalance in Rats

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Atorvastatin (40 mg/kg) inhibited fibrosis, hypertrophy, apoptosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress caused by alcohol consumption. It may contribute to the regulation of mitochondrial function and thiol/disulfide balance by limiting alcohol‐related heart and liver damage.

Turnover of cholesteryl esters of plasma lipoproteins in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1967
Turnover of individual classes of cholesteryl esters (classified on the basis of the degree of unsaturation of the fatty acid moiety) in rat plasma lipoproteins and liver was studied after the administration of mevalonic acid-5-3H and mevalonic acid-2 ...

Immunological Interactions Between Gammadelta T Cells and West Nile Virus in the Infected Host

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Between mosquitoes and birds, West Nile virus (WNV) is a neurotropic flavivirus, an arthropod‐borne pathogen involved in an enzootic cycle. Additionally, it can infect both people and horses, leading to severe illness. Since 1999, WNV has spread across North and South America, including Mexico and the Caribbean.

Acceleration of hepatic sterol synthesis after a single dose of the porphyrogenic chemical allylisopropylacetamide

Journal of Lipid Research, 1974
Hepatic sterol synthesis is accelerated in animals after a single dose of allylisopropylacetamide, a chemical known to be porphyrogenic. Evidence is provided to show that enhanced sterol biosynthesis is due to an increased formation of mevalonic acid ...

Targeting of Staphyloxanthin and α‐Hemolysin by Natural Compound L‐Malic Acid Suppresses Staphylococcus aureus Virulence

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
L‐malic acid, a natural TCA cycle intermediate, attenuates the virulence of Staphylococcus aureus through dual metabolic and regulatory mechanisms. It redirects central carbon flux away from the mevalonate pathway and inhibits the key enzyme CrtO, suppressing staphyloxanthin biosynthesis and impairing bacterial resistance to oxidative stress ...

Constitutive and inducible oleoresin defenses share genetic architectures and mechanisms in Pinus taeda

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 5, Page 2966-2987, June 2026.
Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of the Allotetraploid Gynostemma pentaphyllum Provides Novel Insights Into the Biosynthesis of Ginsenoside and Gypenoside LVI

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4204-4220, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Gynostemma pentaphyllum, a herb used in tea and traditional Chinese medicine, shows geographic variation in its production of valuable dammarane‐type ginsenosides and gypenoside LVI between populations from Suining (SN) and Nanning (NN). To elucidate the mechanisms underlying this differential metabolite accumulation, a chromosome‐level genome

Preoperative Beta‐Hydroxy‐Beta‐Methyl‐Butyrate Supplementation Reduces Mitochondrial Dynamics Proteins and Preserves Hepatic Mitochondrial Function After Partial Hepatectomy in Mice

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The liver exhibits a remarkable regenerative capacity, enabling this organ to maintain homeostasis even after significant injury. However, hepatic regeneration requires sufficient energy to sustain cellular hypertrophy and proliferation, thus ensuring efficient tissue repair.
