Solid Olive‐Mill Waste and Biochar Effects on the Bioavailability and Bioactivity of Abscisic Acid in Soil

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Biochar and solid olive‐mill waste differently affected abscisic acid (ABA) bioavailability and bioactivity in soil by altering ABA sorption and soil chemical and microbial properties. The type of amendment and the mechanisms by which it affected ABA bioavailability in soil were key determinants of the final effects on ABA bioactivity. ABSTRACT Natural

Discovery of a Novel γ‐Glutamylcyclotransferase Inhibitor Plumbagin by Luminescence‐Based High‐Throughput Screening

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 6, Page 1713-1723, June 2026.
A cell‐based high‐throughput screening system utilizing the luminescent probe LISA‐103 was developed to monitor γ‐glutamylcyclotransferase (GGCT) activity in cancer cells. Through this assay, plumbagin was identified as a novel GGCT inhibitor that induces cell cycle arrest and suppresses cancer cell growth. ABSTRACT γ‐Glutamylcyclotransferase (GGCT) is

Investigation of Binding Properties of Umbelliferone (7Hydroxycoumarin) to Lysozyme

open access: yesJournal of Fluorescence, 2012
The binding interaction of lysozyme and umbelliferone (7hydroxcoumarin, 7HC) was investigated by UV-vis absorption and fluorescence quenching. It was obtained from fluorescence spectra that the fluorescence quenching of lysozyme by 7HC was probably a result of the formation of lysozyme-7HC complex and binding parameters were determined according to the

Pastinaca sativa L.: Nutritional Composition, Phytochemistry, and Pharmacological Properties Supporting Its Potential as a Functional Food and Therapeutic Agent

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Food‐grade processing of Pastinaca sativa (parsnip) converts a nutrient‐rich plant matrix (dietary fiber, fructans, phenolics) through washing/slicing/enzymatic treatment and ingredient preparation into functional food ingredients, including fiber concentrates, antioxidant‐rich fractions, and parsnip powders/extracts.

Study of Umbelliferone Hydroxylation to Esculetin Catalyzed by Polyphenol Oxidase

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2013
We characterize umbelliferone, a derivative of 2,4-dihydroxycoumaric acid, as a substrate of polyphenol oxidase. This enzyme hydroxylates umbelliferone to esculetin, its o-diphenol, and then oxidizes it to o-quinone. The findings show that umbelliferone, an intermediate in one of the coumarin biosynthesis pathways, may be transformed into its o ...

6-Methylangelicins: a new series of potential photochemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of psoriasis.

open access: yes, 1984
The possible presence of methylpsoralens as undesired inquinants in synthetic methylangelicins has been avoided through a synthetic pathway starting from umbelliferones carrying a methyl group in the 6-position.
