Study shows Cynodon dactylon phytochemicals target key genes in EOC pathways. Beta-Sitosterol binds strongly to MAPK3 and PARP1, offering potential for new EOC therapies.
Study identified highly drought-tolerant bermudagrass genotypes "Tianshui" and "Linxiang" with over-expression of dehydrin, Cu/ZnSOD, APX genes under water deficit conditions, leading to improved antioxidant activity, osmotic adjustment, and growth potential. Essential for breeding resilient turfgrasses in limited water regions.
In this study, scientists used the extract of a plant to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in a simple and environmentally friendly way. The AgNPs were stable and showed antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties, but their cytotoxic effect on normal cells needs further investigation.
