Anxiolytic and Memory Protective Effects of Withanolide D Isolated From Acnistus arborescens in Adult Zebrafish

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 5, May 2026.
Withanolide D Exhibits Anxiolytic and Memory‐Protective Effects. ABSTRACT This study evaluated the anxiolytic and memory‐protective effects of withanolide D in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio). The compound was administered at doses of 4, 20, and 40 mg/kg and showed no signs of toxicity after 96 h of observation at any of the doses tested.

A Triterpenoid‐Enriched GLE70 Fraction From Ganoderma lingzhi Ameliorates Alcoholic Liver Disease via Multi‐Target Regulation

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
GLE fractions were prepared from Ganoderma lingzhi using gradient ethanol elution and evaluated for their biological activities. Among the fractions, GLE70 exhibited the strongest antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects. Integrated chemical characterization, network pharmacology, molecular docking, and in vivo validation suggested that GLE70 may exert

Progesterone receptor-mediated effects on neuroactive steroids

open access: yes, 1993
Several 3 alpha-hydroxysteroids accumulate in the brain after local synthesis or after metabolization of steroids that are provided by the adrenals. The 3 alpha-hydroxy ring A-reduced pregnane steroids allopregnanolone and tetrahydrodeoxycorticosterone ...
