Secondary metabolites from ethyl acetate extracts were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 25 Mar 2026 · 1,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Different Extraction Methods on the Quality of Peony Seed Oil and Its Emulsion PropertiesKang Li, Chao Du, Shuxian Pang et al.Peony seed oil, as a functional oil rich in ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidant components, has its extraction process directly affecting the maintenance of bioactive substances and the added value of the product. In this analysis, the effects of wet milling-micronized continuous leaching method (MCI), solvent extraction (SE), soxhlet extraction (SOXE) and ethanol-assisted enzymatic hydrolysis (EAH) on the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 28 Jan 2026 · 1,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactivity of Sumac (Rhus Coriaria) Extract as a Green Alternative for Plant Pathogen InhibitionMohammed H. Al-Mamoori, Meisam Zargar, Elena N. Pakina, Fatih DadaşoğluEnvironmental stress caused by pathogenic fungi leads to considerable losses in global crop productivity. Plant-derived extracts are eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives that can inhibit biotic stresses. Sumac (Rhus coriaria) is widely used in industrial and medicinal applications due to its extract rich in secondary metabolites, similar to those found in chemical pesticides and pharmaceuticals. This study aimed to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 25 Nov 2025 · 2,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractNuciferine Attenuates Cigarette Smoke-Induced Senescence in HepG-2 Cells via the miR-217/SIRT1/Nrf2 PathwayYun-Hong Zhao, Yi-Meng Ge, Wei-Jia Xu et al.The lotus leaf, widely used in both medicine and cuisine, contains bioactive compounds with therapeutic potential. Nuciferine (NF), an active constituent of significant importance, is extracted from the lotus leaf. The present study sought to uncover the molecular pathways through which Nuciferine (NF) mitigates cellular senescence triggered by Cigarette Smoke Components (CSCs) in HepG-2 cells, employing an experimental model where … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 4 Oct 2025 · 2,296 accessesView PDFCite
