Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Risa Kiryu"
- Risa Kiryu's recent research investigates the pharmacological properties of Piper longum L., a herbal drug known for its renoprotective effects, with a focus on its potential to enhance gene expression related to drug transport.
- The study specifically isolates and identifies neolignans from the aerial parts of Piper longum that promote the expression of the ABCG2 gene, which plays a critical role in drug metabolism and resistance.
- These findings contribute to the understanding of how natural compounds from traditional herbal sources can potentially improve therapeutic outcomes by modulating gene expression in pharmacology.
