Article Synopsis
- - Centella asiatica is a medicinal plant known for its high content of triterpenoids, commonly used in Asia to treat skin issues like acne.
- - Researchers isolated 21 triterpenoid compounds from the plant, analyzing their structures through NMR and HRESIMS, including unique compounds with rare aldehyde groups.
- - In vitro tests showed that 20 of these compounds effectively enhanced cell survival and reduced damage from UVB exposure, suggesting they may serve as natural protectants against skin aging.
Hypoxia and high concentration of glutathione (GSH) in tumor seriously hinder the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxygen-dependence strategy in tumor treatment. In this work, a self-generating oxygen and self-consuming GSH hyaluronic acid (HA)-coated porphyrin nanoplatform (TAPPP@CaO/Pt(IV)/HA) is established for enhancing photodynamic/ion/chemo targeting synergistic therapy of tumor. During the efforts of ROS production by nanosystems, a GSH consuming strategy is implemented for augmenting ROS-induced oxidative damage for synergetic cancer therapy.
