Objectives: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents the third-most prevalent cancer in humans worldwide. The current study's objective is to search for the potentiality of H. Wendl () leaf extract in a nanoemulsion (NE) form in enhancing radiotherapy against HCC induced in rats using diethylnitrosamine (DEN).

The processing of PS in food industries and households produces a significant amount of waste that needs to be valorized.
Methods: In this study, the metabolite profiles of the 70% ethanolic extracts of PS wastes, namely peels (PSP) and a combination of leaves and stems (PSLS), were investigated by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-QTOF-MS/MS) followed by molecular networking.
Article Synopsis
- - Carob seeds (Ceratonia siliqua L.) are primarily known for their edible pulp, but their seeds are also a key source of the food additive E410 and contain various beneficial metabolites.
- - The study successfully isolated two flavonoid compounds from the seeds—quercetin-3-O-rhamnoside and 4'-p-hydroxybenzoylisorhamnetin-3,7-di-O-rhamnoside—using methanol extraction and advanced analytical techniques like HPLC and LC-MS.
- - These isolated compounds displayed significant cytotoxic effects against renal and colorectal cancer cell lines, with 4'-p-hydroxybenzoylisorhamnetin-3,7-di-O-r
Introduction: This research explores sustainable applications for waste generated from fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum), a plant with both nutritional and medicinal uses. The study specifically targets waste components as potential sources of nutrients and bioactive compounds.
Objectives: The focus is to conduct detailed metabolic profiling of fenugreek waste, assess its anti-inflammatory properties by studying its cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitory effect, and correlate this effect to the metabolite fingerprint.
