Researchers modified red angico gum to create a compound with better properties for treating gastric ulcers and reduced damage from alcohol exposure.
Abrus cantoniensis herb (ACS) is a Chinese medicine used for hepatitis treatment. It has protective effects on liver injuries, but its influence on drug-induced liver injury (DILI) remains unproven.
Researchers investigated the potential of Citrus aurantium L. var. amara Engl. (CAVA) blossom in combating obesity by enhancing the browning of white adipose tissue (WAT). The study builds on previous findings indicating CAVA's anti-obesity potential.
Researchers isolated three rare C-diterpenoid alkaloids with a cyano functional group from a plant. One compound showed better inhibitory activity against cancer cells than a current drug. It also arrested cells in the G2/M phase and induced apoptosis by activating a specific signaling pathway.
Study identifies molecular mechanisms behind cadmium accumulation in medicinal herb Coptis chinensis, offers strategies to control and mitigate accumulation, enhance resistance, and promote synthesis of secondary metabolites.
Scientists developed a method called ODCE with UHPLC-MS/MS to measure compounds in traditional Chinese medicines. This strategy allows for wider range quantification and is useful for monitoring the effectiveness and safety of TCMs.
Two new alkaloids, Oleracrylimide D and Oleracrylimide E, were discovered in L. Their structures were identified using spectroscopic methods, and their anti-inflammatory properties were investigated using ELISA.
PNS from Panax notoginseng can treat COPD with HCS by reducing blood clotting. Important for managing risk factors in COPD patients.
