A synthetic strategy for phenolic lipids such as anacardic acid and ginkgolic acid derivatives using an efficient and selective redox-relay Heck reaction followed by a stereoselective olefination is reported. This approach controls both the alkene position and stereochemistry, allowing the synthesis of natural and unnatural unsaturated lipids as single isomers. By this strategy, the activities of different anacardic acid and ginkgolic acid derivatives have been examined in a matrix metalloproteinase inhibition assay.

Plant-driven extracellular vesicles (PEVs) have attracted significant interest due to their natural origin, remarkable bioactivity, and efficacy in drug encapsulation and target delivery. In our work, extracellular vesicles from Citri Reticulate Pericranium (CEVs) were isolated and investigated their physicochemical characteristics and biological activities. We identified the vesicle structures as regular, with a particle size of approximately 200 nm.

Background: In patients with sepsis, platelets are activated and adhere to neutrophils, forming platelet-leukocyte aggregates (PLAs) that lead to the development of MODS. ARDS is one of the main manifestations of septic MODS. We designed this study to explore the effects of different anti-plate therapy drugs on platelet activation and platelet-leukocyte aggregate (PLA) formation in the early stage of septic ARDS.

Food commodities, including mycotoxins naturally produced from toxigenic fungi (pre- or post-harvest), are particularly vulnerable to contamination. The study intended to use unique bioactive composites loaded with antimicrobial constituents for food packaging. Three composite types are based on carboxymethyl cellulose/shellac (CMC/SH) and loaded with pomegranate extract (POE) with or without jojoba oil (JOE) at various concentrations.
