Effects of Different Additives and Ratios on Broom Sorghum Straw Silage Characteristics and Bacterial Communities.

As a large agricultural country, China produces a large number of agricultural and sideline products while harvesting agricultural products every year. Crop straw is one of them. Broom sorghum is a traditional crop in China, which produces a large amount of straw resources every year.

The Role of Protein Methyltransferases in Immunity.

The immune system protects our body from bacteria, viruses, and toxins and removes malignant cells. Activation of immune cells requires the onset of a network of important signaling proteins. Methylation of these proteins affects their structure and biological function.

20(S)-Protopanaxadiol from Induces Apoptosis and Autophagy in Gastric Cancer Cells by Inhibiting Src.

20(S)-protopanaxadiol (PPD), a metabolite of , has multiple pharmacological properties. However, the effects of PPD against human gastric cancer have not been elucidated. Our purpose in this study was to investigate if PPD has anticancer effects against human gastric cancer .

Protective Function of (L.) Borkh Methanol Extract against UVB/Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Skin Aging via Inhibition of MAPK and NF-κB Signaling.

Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induces ROS production, which activates activator protein (AP)-1 and nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling and downstream molecules, ultimately triggering the generation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and degradation of collagen. The aim of this study was to investigate the protective effect of methanol extract from (L.) Borkh (Mb-ME) against aging.

Anti-Inflammatory Functions of Methanol Extract from (L.) Borkh. Leaves and Shoots by Targeting the NF-κB Pathway.

(L.) Borkh. is a widely used medical plant in Asia.

In Vitro Photoprotective, Anti-Inflammatory, Moisturizing, and Antimelanogenic Effects of a Methanolic Extract of Cronquist.

UVB exposure causes DNA mutation and ROS generation, which lead to skin photoaging, skin wrinkling, skin sagging, and uneven skin pigmentation. ROS activate the NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways leading to production of inflammatory molecules such as COX-2, collagen-degrading proteins such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and moisture-deficiency-related proteins such as hyaluronidases (HYALs). UVB exposure also induces irregular skin pigmentation though melanin overproduction, related to CREB transcription factor activity and transcription of melanogenesis genes.

Suppresses Inflammation by Targeting TAK1-Mediated MAP Kinase Activation.

Possessing a variety of medicinal functions, L. is widely cultivated across the world. However, the anti-inflammatory mechanism of is not yet fully elucidated.

Anti-Inflammatory and Photoaging-Protective Effects of through Inhibition of AP-1 and NF-[Formula: see text] B Pathways.

is a beneficial edible plant with a number of biological activities like anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, antithrombic, antihyperglycemic, and anti-ischemic activities. The mechanisms behind the antiphotoaging and anti-inflammatory effects of are not fully understood. To investigate how an ethanol extract of (Oe-EE) exerts these effects, we explored its activities in human keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts.

Tunisian Olea europaea L. leaf extract suppresses Freund's complete adjuvant-induced rheumatoid arthritis and lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammatory responses.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Olea europaea L. (olive) is traditionally used as a folk remedy and functional food in Europe and Mediterranean countries to treat inflammatory diseases. O.

Suppression of Src and Syk in the NF-κB signaling pathway by Olea europaea methanol extract is leading to its anti-inflammatory effects.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Olea europaea L., (Oleaceae) has been used widely in folk medicine in the European Mediterranean islands, India, Asia, and other parts of the world. Although this plant has high ethnopharmacological value for treating inflammatory diseases, the molecular mechanisms of how it inhibits the inflammatory response are not fully understood.
