The therapeutic mechanism of oleanolic acid (OA) in breast cancer has been widely reported, but little has been known about the combined effects of transcriptome and gut microbiome. In this study, the phenotypic effect of oleanolic acid on mice was tested at the end of the administration cycle, and RNA sequencing on murine tumor tissue and 16S-rRNA sequencing on intestinal contents were conducted to analyze gene expression profiles and microbial diversity between the control group and OA treated group using 4T1-induced mice breast cancer model. As a result, it has been confirmed that oleanolic acid would play a significant inhibitory effect on the development of breast tumors in mice. Based on the integrative analysis of the transcriptomic and metagenomic data, it was found that the abundance of in the intestinal flora of mice significantly increased in the OA group. Moreover, the up-regulation of had a significant effect on inhibiting the tumor progression, which played a role through cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction pathway.

Lung cancer remains a major global health problem because of its high cancer-related mortality rate despite advances in therapeutic approaches. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), a major subtype of lung cancer, is more amenable to surgical intervention in its early stages. However, the prognosis for advanced NSCLC remains poor, owing to limited treatment options.

Virgin avocado oil (VAO), treasured for its nutritional and sensory properties, is susceptible to oxidation. To improve its oxidative stability, the feasibility of enrichment with antioxidants from avocado or olive-processing by-products via ultrasound-assisted maceration was explored. Dried, milled avocado (AL), olive leaves (OL), or olive pomace (OP) were ultrasound-macerated with laboratory-extracted VAO at 5, 10, and 20% levels.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, marked by progressive brain degeneration and cognitive decline. A major pathological feature of AD is the accumulation of hyperphosphorylated tau (p-tau) in the form of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), which leads to neuronal death and neurodegeneration. P-tau also induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activates the unfolded protein response, causing inflammation and apoptosis.

Inhibition of appetite is an effective approach to fight obesity. Recently, bile acids have been reported to suppress appetite and alleviate obesity via the Takeda G protein-coupled receptor 5 (TGR5). However, whether the downstream signaling molecule cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) of TGR5 is involved in this process remains unclear.

An endophytic actinomycetes, , was -isolated from the leaves of Hook. et Arn. Five compounds were separated from the ethyl acetate extract of the fermentation broth of endophytic actinomycetes, and their structures were confirmed by utilising methods such as nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectrometry, and literature references.
