Enhancing polyphenol synthesis and antioxidant activity in Camellia sinensis using shikimic and salicylic acids

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Camellia sinensis, widely consumed as tea, is the second most popular beverage globally and is valued for its health benefits. However, environmental stressors pose a significant challenge to the tea industry. This study investigates the potential of shikimic acid (ShA) and its derivative, salicylic acid (SA), as inducers to enhance

Ultrasonic‐assisted extraction of bioactive compounds from eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) calyx and evaluation of extract properties

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) is widely consumed worldwide and generates considerable waste, including peel and calyx, during processing and consumption. Although often considered as by‐products, these wastes are rich sources of bioactive compounds, which vary depending on the plant variety and cultivation location.

Effects of catechins, resveratrol, silymarin components and some of their conjugates on xanthine oxidase‐catalyzed xanthine and 6‐mercaptopurine oxidation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 5, Page 2765-2776, 30 March 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND Over the past two decades, the global incidence of gout has markedly increased, affecting people worldwide. Considering the side effects of xanthine oxidase (XO) inhibitor drugs (e.g. allopurinol and febuxostat) used in the treatment of hyperuricemia and gout, the potential application of phytochemicals has been widely studied.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Biogenic Synthesis of Silver and Iron Nanoparticles Derived From Grewia Optiva Leaf Extract: A Novel Approach for Antidiabetic, Anticoagulant and Anti‐Inflammatory Therapies

International Journal of Chemical Kinetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents the green synthesis of silver (Ag‐NPs) and iron nanoparticles (Fe‐NPs) using aqueous leaf extract of Grewia optiva as a natural reducing and stabilizing agent. The extract was prepared using a Kjeldahl apparatus under controlled heating. Nanoparticle synthesis was optimized by varying pH, temperature, and salt concentration,

Loganin, an Iridoid Glycoside, Alleviates Paclitaxel‐Induced Skeletal Muscle Toxicity by Enhancing Mitochondrial Function, Boosting Antioxidant Defenses, and Reducing Cellular Senescence

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondrial dysfunction and energy imbalance caused by chemotherapy are key contributors to skeletal muscle atrophy, which severely impacts the quality of life in cancer patients. Paclitaxel, a commonly used chemotherapeutic agent, is known to promote muscle wasting and cellular senescence, largely by impairing mitochondrial function.

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...
