Scientists used single-cell tracking and 3D modeling to study cancer cell behavior in pancreatic and cervical cancer. High levels of a specific modification were linked to enhanced growth in pancreatic cells. Understanding immune cell interactions and cell characteristics can help predict cancer cell fate in the tumor microenvironment.
Selenium nanoparticles stabilized by heteroxylan polysaccharide have potential as an anti-tumor agent for pancreatic cancer, showing inhibition of cell proliferation, migration, and induction of apoptosis and autophagy.
Scientists studied bioactive molecules in Tacca plantaginea, including taccanolides and taccaosides, which show potential as anticancer agents by targeting cancer stem cells and immune response. Further research on saponins from this plant may lead to new immuno-active treatments.
Scientists studied how micro/nano-plastics (MNPs) are absorbed by grapevines. They found that polystyrene nanoparticles can be taken up by the root system and transported upwards. This research helps assess the risk of MNPs entering the food chain and provides data for plant health and ecological risk assessment.
Ginger supplementation reduces chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in children, with a low risk of bias and no reported adverse effects. Standardized studies are needed to confirm these findings.
Researchers studied Lingguizhugan decoction, a traditional Chinese herbal remedy, for its potential in treating Alzheimer's disease by influencing the gut-brain axis through gut microbiota modulation. This ancient remedy may offer novel therapeutic possibilities for AD.
Nur77 controls inflammation and is a potential target for treating inflammatory diseases. Angelica sinensis contains compounds that reduce inflammation. Important for developing anti-inflammatory therapies.
Study in Alexandria, Egypt showed pandemic led to increased obesity and AOP intake. Examined AOP efficacy/safety and impact on COVID-19 severity. Important for COVID-19 treatment strategies and public health interventions.
