In this work, the lipidomic analysis on polar components of almond, coconut, and soy beverages was performed by liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. A comparison with bovine milk was also performed. A total of 30 subclasses of polar lipids, belonging mainly to glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids, and a total of 572 molecular species were identified.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an aggressive disease with a high relapse rate. In this study, we map the metabolic profile of CD34(CD38) AML cells and the extracellular vesicle signatures in circulation from AML patients at diagnosis. CD34 AML cells display high antioxidant glutathione levels and enhanced mitochondrial functionality, both associated with poor clinical outcomes.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-enclosed nanoparticles released outside the cell. EVs have drawn attention not only for their role in cell waste disposal, but also as additional tools for cell-to-cell communication. Their complex contents include not only lipids, but also proteins, nucleic acids (RNA, DNA), and metabolites.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the biological properties and chemical profiles of chickweed extracts using various solvents and advanced techniques like UHPLC/MS/MS.
  • Twelve phenolic compounds, primarily flavonoids, were identified, with the water extract showing the best antioxidant capabilities and the ethyl acetate extract showing strong enzyme-inhibiting effects.
  • The findings suggest chickweed could be a valuable resource for developing products in the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmeceutical sectors due to its significant cytotoxic effects and potential mechanisms of action against cancer-related targets.
