Article Synopsis
  • DHEA is a steroid hormone associated with various health benefits, including anti-obesity and anti-cancer effects, but its mechanisms are not fully understood.
  • The study aimed to explore how DHEA affects lung adenocarcinoma by focusing on mitochondrial dynamics and found that DHEA inhibited tumor growth in mice.
  • Specifically, DHEA was shown to limit glycolysis, increase reactive oxygen species, and promote mitochondrial function, providing new insights for lung adenocarcinoma treatment.

With the development of precision medicine, molecular targeted therapy has been widely used in the field of cancer, especially in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a well-recognized and effective target for NSCLC therapies, targeted EGFR therapy with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) has achieved ideal clinical efficacy in recent years. Unfortunately, resistance to EGFR-TKIs inevitably occurs due to various mechanisms after a period of therapy.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are both types of noncoding RNA. They have been demonstrated to be involved in the regulation of various human inflammatory diseases and can be used as biomarkers for disease diagnosis and prognosis, and even be developed into new drugs. Gout is an arthritic disease caused by the deposition of monosodium urate crystal (MSU) in the joints, which can lead to acute inflammation and damage adjacent tissue.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Abacopteris penangiana (Hook.) Ching (AP) is a member of parathelypteris glanduligera and used in folk medicine for the treatment of blood circulation and blood stasis, edema and inflammation as recorded in the ″Chinese Materia Medica″.

Aim Of The Study: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of total flavanol glycosides (TFA) from AP and its acid hydrolysate (AHT) on testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in rats by measuring the levels of inflammatory responses, oxidative stress and prostate cell proliferation.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Abacopteris penangiana (Hook.) Ching (AP) is traditionally used in Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis and dampness and for the treatment of edema and inflammation. In order to further support and develop the traditional use of Abacopteris penangiana as Chinese folk medicine, the aim of this study is to investigate the protective effect of the total flavanol glycosides (TFA) from AP and its acid hydrolysate (AHT) on chronic non-bacterial prostatitis (CNP) by measuring the levels of oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in rats.
