Compound Abrus cantoniensis Extract Alleviates AFB1‐Induced Liver Injury by Regulating PI3K‐AKT Pathway and Gut Microbiota/Butyrate Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ACCE has a good alleviating effect on AFB1‐induced liver injury, and this alleviating effect is related to the PI3K‐AKT pathway regulated by ACCE and the butyrate metabolism of gut microbiota. ABSTRACT Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a potent hepatotoxin commonly ingested through contaminated food. Abrus cantoniensis Hance, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb,

Salvianolic Acid a Disrupts the HSP90α‐AKT‐PERK Ternary Complex to Alleviate Atherosclerosis by Activating Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress of Senescent Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Salvianolic acid A (SAA) selectively induces senescent vascular smooth muscle cell apoptosis, alleviating atherosclerosis. Mechanistically, SAA targets heat shock protein 90 alpha (HSP90α) to disrupt the protein inase B (AKT)‐PRKR‐Like Endoplasmic Reticulum Kinase (PERK) scaffold, driving ubiquitin‐proteasome‐dependent AKT degradation.
