Objective: Isoscopoletin is one of the primary metabolites of natural product scoparone, which was reported to against tumor proliferation. The aim of this study was to explore the mechanism of isoscopoletin against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

Methods: Transcriptomics was used to reveal the possible pathways of isoscopoletin against HCC in vitro.

Structural characteristics and antioxidant activity of a low-molecular-weight jujube polysaccharide by ultrasound assisted metal-free Fenton reaction.

This study used an ultrasonically accelerated metal-free Fenton (HO-V system) reaction to promote water-extracted degrading polysaccharides from (DZMP). A novel jujube polysaccharide (DPZMP3) was obtained by degradation using DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow and Sephacryl S-100 column chromatography. Methylation analysis, HPGPC, ion chromatography, FT-IR, and NMR spectroscopies were used to clarify the chemical structures of DPZMP3.

Immediate modulatory effects of transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation on patients with Parkinson's disease: a crossover self-controlled fMRI study.

Background: Previous studies have evaluated the safety and efficacy of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the mechanism underlying the effect of taVNS on PD remains to be elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the immediate effects of taVNS in PD patients.

benefiting resistance to reveals infection and defense mechanisms in tung tree.

Unlabelled: Fusarium wilt, caused by f. sp. in , manifests as severe symptoms that significantly reduce global tung oil yield.

Comparative evaluation and QSAR modeling of developmental neurotoxicity of novel brominated flame retardants in zebrafish.

The novel brominated flame retardants (NBFRs) have received wide concerns due to their ubiquitous occurrence in the environment and their potential risks to ecosystems and human health. However, the toxicity data of NBFRs are still lacking, especially their toxicity comparison data, and toxicity predictions for untested NBFRs are extremely limited. In this study, eight commonly used NBFRs and decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE209) were selected to compare their toxicity at concentrations between 0.

Multi-omics revealed antibacterial mechanisms of licochalcone A against MRSA and its antimicrobic potential on pork meat.

Licorice flavonoids (LFs) exhibit potent antibacterial activities against Gram-positive bacteria. However, the related mechanism remains unclear. This study aims to illustrate the mechanisms of licochalcone A (LA), a main flavonoid in LFs, against methicillin-resistant (MRSA).

Quercetin Boosts Pulsatile Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Release to Improve Luteal Function via Inhibiting NF-κB/NLRP3-Mediated Neuron Pyroptosis.

Scope: Luteal phase deficiency (LPD) is the main cause of infertility without an effective cure. Quercetin (QUE) is a bioactive flavonoid with antioxidant properties, while its role in treating LPD remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of QUE on infertility and menstrual disorders induced by LPD, thus further exploring the underlying mechanism.

Association between dietary omega-3 fatty acid intake and all-cause mortality in patients with osteoarthritis: a population-based prospective cohort study.
