Ellagitannins from the Onagraceae Decrease the Performance of Generalist and Specialist Herbivores [PDF]
Phenolics have a role in defenses against herbivores, but the defensive functions of specific groups of phenolics are still poorly understood. For example, ellagitannins (a type of hydrolyzable tannin) are predicted to decrease insect herbivore ...

Use of Epilobium parviflorum in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in Canines
The study assessed Epilobium parviflorum (EP) for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in two dogs. Both were treated with EP extract for 2 months, with follow‐up ultrasounds, urinalysis, blood count, liver and kidney biochemistry, and serum testosterone levels measured on Days 7, 15, 30 and 60.

The discovery of liquid–liquid phase separation in living organisms has prompted colloid scientists to understand the connection between the functionality of coacervates, their phase state, and dynamics at multiple time and spatial scales. Therefore, this review attempts to unravel the relationship between dynamics, thermodynamics, molecular ...

We studied polyphenol metabolism in polyphagous caterpillars of Lymantria mathura (Erebidae, Lepidoptera) to explore mechanisms that may contribute to its ability to feed on various host‐plants. We detected pronounced intraspecific variation in polyphenol metabolism, an ability to excrete ingested metabolites and potential dietary habituation.
