Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Effects of Stachys Japonica Miq. Ethanol Extract on Cyclophosphamide-Induced Immunosuppressed Mice and its Phytochemical CompositionXueping Jiang, Jianglong He, Yanjun Chen, Fang WangStachys japonica Miq. is an edible wild botanical drug and a traditional medicine in China. This study focused on examining the phytochemical profile and antioxidant properties of the ethanol extract of S. japonica Miq (SJEE) in vitro, as well as its immunomodulatory and antioxidant activities in cyclophosphamide (Cy)-induced immunosuppressed mice. The SJEE was analysed by UPLC-HRMS/MS. 36 Polyphenols, including flavonoids, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2026 · 1,449 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsStudy of Ageratum conyzoides L. (Asteraceae) Phytochemical Composition as Quorum-sensing Inhibitors to Combat Antibiotic-resistant Bacterial InfectionsEli Compaoré, Lassané Ouedraogo, Ablassé Rouamba et al.The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections has intensified the search for plant-derived quorum-sensing (QS) inhibitors as alternative therapeutic strategies. Ageratum conyzoides L. has a long history of traditional use as an antimicrobial agent against multidrug-resistant pathogens, yet the phytochemical basis of its QS-inhibitory activity remains incompletely characterized. This study aimed to investigate the phytochemical composition of A. conyzoides and evaluate … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMolecular Identification and Antioxidant Profiling of Penicillium heteringtonii EUA-017 from Mangrove (Avicennia alba) in West Sumatra, IndonesiaAnthoni Agustien, Djong Hon Tjong, Yetria Rilda et al.Mangrove ecosystems harbor diverse endophytic fungi that produce bioactive secondary metabolites with potential antioxidant activities. This study aimed to identify an endophytic fungal isolate (EUA-017) from Avicennia alba mangroves in West Sumatra, Indonesia, and characterize its antioxidant metabolites. Molecular identification was performed using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region sequencing.
