Published: August 2010

From the CHCl3-soluble portion of the 70% EtOH extract of the stems and leaves of Dioscorea nipponica Makino, two new dihydrophenanthrenes were isolated, 2,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-trimethoxy-9,10-dihydrophenanthrene, and 4,4',7,7'-tetrahydroxy-2,2',6,6'-tetramethoxy-1,1'-bi-9,10-dihydrophenanthrenyl. The structures were determined by means of HRMS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and HMBC experiments.

Unlabelled: Visceral leishmaniasis (VL), caused by , remains challenging to treat due to severe side effects and increasing drug resistance associated with current chemotherapies. Our study investigates the anti-leishmanial potential of from Uttarakhand, India, with extracts prepared from leaves and stems using ethanol and hexane. Advanced GC-MS analysis identified over 100 bioactive compounds, which were screened using molecular docking to assess their binding to LdHEL-67, a DDX3-DEAD box RNA helicase of donovani.

  • - Copper pollution from industrial activities negatively affects plant growth and poses health risks through the food chain by accumulating in plants.! - DCPTA has been shown to help plants cope with copper stress by improving leaf pigment, photosynthesis, root growth, and antioxidant levels, while reducing copper accumulation in cucumber plants.! - Gene analysis indicates that specific genes related to copper metabolism, cell structure, and nitrogen processing are essential in regulating plant response to copper toxicity, suggesting that DCPTA can partially alleviate this stress in cucumbers.!

Foliar application of beneficial nanoparticles exhibits potential in mitigating combined stresses from heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in crops, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of plant-rhizosphere-microbial processes to promote sustainable nanotechnology in agriculture. Herein, we investigated the mitigating mechanisms of foliar application of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) on lettuce growth under phenanthrene (Phe) and cadmium (Cd) costress. Compared to Phe + Cd treatment, low (L-ZnO) and high (H-ZnO) concentration of ZnO increased fresh biomass (27.
