Scientists identified and studied the gene responsible for producing alkylresorcinols (ARs) in rye, which are compounds with antimicrobial, antifungal, and cytotoxic properties. Understanding this gene and its products could have positive implications for human health.
This study extracted protease inhibitors from a medicinal plant, identified their properties, and assessed their effects on immune response and cell viability. The results suggest potential immunomodulatory properties without harming cells.
This research explored antidiabetic properties of a natural herb using enzyme assay and computational approaches. The herb demonstrated promising inhibitory activity against diabetes-related enzymes, with compounds showing better binding energy than a standard drug. The study suggests that the herb could be used as a medication for type 2 diabetes.
Researchers investigated the molecular mechanisms of waterlogging tolerance in onions, aiming to develop stress-tolerant varieties. Understanding these mechanisms can enhance onion cultivation worldwide by mitigating the adverse effects of waterlogging stress.
Researchers studied traditional Thai medicine BRL, assessing its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and developing a new analytical method. Results provide health benefits insights and a reliable analysis method.
In this study, the researchers sequenced the complete chloroplast genome of . It has a typical structure and contains 128 genes. The study provides a foundation for future genetic and genomic research in the genus and Malvaceae.
A new furfural derivative and 25 known compounds were found in Stemona tuberosa. These compounds, mainly phenolics, provide markers for quality control and distinguishing Stemona plants.
