Phenylethanoid glycosides (PhGs) are widely occurring secondary metabolites of medicinal plants with interesting biological activities such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, antiviral, hepatoprotective, immunomodulatory, etc. They are characterized by a structural core formed by a phenethyl alcohol, usually tyrosol or hydroxytyrosol, attached to β-D-glucopyranose via a glycosidic bond. This core is usually further decorated by attached phenolic acids or another saccharide.

Gaucher disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by the accumulation of glucocerebroside lipids within multiple organs due to a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme (acid β-glucosidase). It is an inherited autosomal recessive disease. The onset of symptoms can vary depending on disease type and severity, with milder forms presenting in adulthood.

De novo RNA-sequencing of Wolfiporia cocos mycelia cultured with filter paper composed of cellulose as the sole carbon source revealed a total of five expressed β-glucosidase genes. Among these, the β-glucosidase named Wcbg1B-1, which is composed of 539 amino acid residues and belongs to the GH1 family, had the highest mRNA abundance, accounting for 65 % of the total mRNA of the five expressed β-glucosidases. The recombinant Wcbg1B-1 was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, with an optimal pH of 6.

Introduction: Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have drawn a lot of interest among researchers because of their distinct impact on antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory tests, antibacterial activity, and in the treatment of various diseases. A. linearis has shown great findings in biomedical applications because of its physio-chemical compounds such as Aspalathin, orientin, and isoorientin.
