'Zihui' papaya has purple pericarp due to upregulation of genes involved in anthocyanin synthesis. Understanding this mechanism can enhance fruit marketability and improve visual appeal.
Researchers found artesunate, a drug for severe malaria, enhances cell death in ovarian cancer when combined with navitoclax. This combo shows promising antineoplastic effects in both cell and animal models, hinting at a potential new treatment option for ovarian cancer.
Tossers investigated GLP and HP for their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on ovarian tissue in rats with PCOS. Results could help understand and potentially treat inflammation-related aspects of PCOS.
Study investigated fruit compounds as potential AR inhibitors for prostate cancer therapy. Naringenin showed promising results in binding to AR. Further research on these compounds, especially naringenin, may lead to new drug development.
Researchers studied the use of Vitex negundo seed in treating polycystic ovary syndrome in rats. Results may offer safer and more effective treatment options for PCOS in women.
Scientists evaluated the binding affinities of phytoestrogens from medicinal plants for estrogen receptor β, using a yeast-based fluorescent assay. This can help identify potential treatments for gynecological diseases and assess environmental substances affecting the female reproductive system.
Nanoparticles rejuvenate aging Cajanus cajan seeds, improving germination and viability by regulating redox status, gene expression, and hormonal balance. This research shows potential for nanotechnology in agriculture and the importance of using nano zinc oxide for seed treatment.
Researchers studied the role of ACBPs in barley, uncovering their importance in growth, stress response, and membrane repair. Understanding this can aid in developing resilient crops.
