Natural Products Targeting Notch Signaling in Cancer: Mechanistic Insights and Food‐Based Chemoprevention Potential

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
The Notch signaling pathway plays a dual role in cancer, acting as both a tumor promoter and suppressor depending on cellular context. This review highlights how natural products modulate Notch signaling to inhibit tumor initiation, progression, angiogenesis, and cancer stem cell maintenance.

Repurposing Cardiac Glycosides to Potentiate CD47 Blockade through Calreticulin‐mediated Phagocytic Effects for Lung Cancer Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 46, December 11, 2025.
Repurposing cardiac glycosides (CGs) significantly strengthens the efficacy of anti‐CD47 antibody for lung cancer treatment by boosting macrophage phagocytosis. This novel combination blocks the “don't eat me” signal and increases dual “eat‐me” signals, Fc‐FcγR and cell surface expression of calreticulin (ecto‐CRT).

Murine pharmacokinetics and metabolism of oleandrin, a cytotoxic component of Nerium oleander [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Therapeutics and Oncology, 2002
Pharmacokinetic studies of [3H]oleandrin, a cardiac glycoside component of Anvirzel™, were conducted in mice after either an i.v. dose (40 μg/kg) or a p.o. dose (80 μg/kg). Oleandrin was rapidly absorbed after oral dosing (Cmax at 20 min) although the elimination half‐life was longer (2.3 ± 0.5 h) than that after i.v. dosing (0.4 ± 0.1 h).

Transforming Growth Factor‐β Pathway: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2025.
Natural compounds modulate the TGF‐β pathway, which acts as both a tumor suppressor and promoter during cancer progression. Agents such as ginsenosides, halofuginone, and EGCG influence cell proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. These bioactive molecules may complement standard therapies, highlighting the need for advanced formulations ...

Plant‐derived compounds as potential leads for new drug development targeting COVID‐19

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 1522-1554, March 2024.
Abstract COVID‐19, which was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, China, is a respiratory illness caused by a virus called severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2). Although some patients infected with COVID‐19 can remain asymptomatic, most experience a range of symptoms that can be mild to severe. Common symptoms include fever, cough,
