Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.

Cascading bottom‐up effects of invasive alien plants on the parasitoid Aphidius colemani mediated by the aphid host Aphis fabae

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Differences in the suitability of invasive alien plants as hosts drove variations in cascading bottom‐up effects in aphid host and parasitoid performance, potentially influencing top‐down regulation. Abstract BACKGROUND Invasive alien plants (IAP) can threaten biodiversity by disrupting trophic interactions and, consequently, affect agroecosystems by ...

Quantitative analysis of total retronecine esters-type pyrrolizidine alkaloids in plant by high performance liquid chromatography

, 2007
Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) are alkaloids which typically contain a necine (7-hydroxy-1-hydroxymethyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolizidine) base unit, and they can be found in one third of the higher plants around the world. They are hepatotoxic, mutagenic and

Tangeretin Targets Macrophage M1 Polarization to Alleviate Liver Injury in a Murine Model of Hepatic Sinusoidal Obstruction Syndrome

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Tangeretin (TAN) alleviates monocrotaline‐induced hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome in mice. By attenuating the Keap1–Nrf2 interaction, TAN promotes Nrf2 nuclear translocation and mitophagy, thereby preserving mitochondrial homeostasis and reducing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Shikonin: From Biosynthesis and Pharmacological Mechanisms to Translational Safety and Drug Delivery

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 21, 12 November 2026.
Shikonin, biosynthesised in Boraginaceae roots from phenylalanine‐derived PHB and isoprenoid GPP, modulates redox balance, cellular stress, signalling pathways, and regulated cell death. Preclinical studies support diverse pharmacological activities, while nanocarriers improve dispersion and delivery.
