Umbelliferone inhibits proliferation and metastasis via modulating cadherin/β-catenin complex-aided cell-cell adhesion in glioblastoma cells.

Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most aggressive brain tumor malignancy in adults, accounting for nearly 50% of all gliomas. Current medications for GBM frequently lead to drug resistance.

Objectives: Umbelliferone (UMB) is found extensively in many plants and shows numerous pharmacological actions against inflammation, degenerative diseases and cancers.

Ampelopsis grossedentata tea alleviating liver fibrosis in BDL-induced mice via gut microbiota and metabolite modulation.

Liver fibrosis (LF) is a common sequela to diverse chronic liver injuries, leading to rising rates of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). As the medicinal and edible homologous material, traditional teas have exhibited promising applications in the clinical management of liver fibrosis. Here, we generated a liver fibrosis mouse model to explore the potent therapeutic ability of Ampelopsis grossedentata (AG) tea on this condition by multi-omics analysis.
