Geniposide suppressed OX-LDL-induced osteoblast apoptosis by regulating the NRF2/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Scientists investigated the effect of geniposide, a natural compound from Eucommia ulmoides, on osteoporosis. Geniposide was found to protect against the development of osteoporosis induced by cholesterol accumulation. This research can contribute to the development of potential drugs for treating osteoporosis.

MYB24 orchestrates terpene and flavonol metabolism as light responses to anthocyanin depletion in variegated grape berries.

Scientists found that the accumulation of certain metabolic products differs in red and white sections of variegated grapes. MYB24, a gene, regulates the synthesis of terpenes and flavonols, potentially affecting carotenoids. This study provides insights into the triggers and effects of variegation in berries.
