Revealing the anti-melanoma mechanism of n-BuOH fraction from the red kidney bean coat extract based on network pharmacology and transcriptomic approach

Jiahui Nie et al.

Summary: The study identified the n-butanol fraction of red kidney bean coat extract as a potent anti-melanoma fraction, potentially acting through apoptosis induction and vacuolization. Transcriptomic and bioprocess-target network analysis revealed the involvement of multiple signaling pathways and gene expression regulation. The findings contribute to expanding understanding of the anti-melanoma activity of red kidney bean coat extract and offer possibilities for further research and development in functional food applications.

Mechanistic insights into the inhibition of pancreatic lipase by apigenin: Inhibitory interaction, conformational change and molecular docking studies

Sha Li et al.

Summary: The study showed that apigenin reversibly inhibited pancreatic lipase activity in a competitive manner, and exhibited a synergistic effect when combined with orlistat. The formation of a complex between apigenin and pancreatic lipase driven by hydrogen bonds resulted in the inhibition of enzyme activity through a static manner. The research provided novel insights into the mechanism of apigenin as a pancreatic lipase inhibitor.

Anti-obesity, antioxidant and in silico evaluation of Justicia carnea bioactive compounds as potential inhibitors of an enzyme linked with obesity: Insights from kinetics, semi-empirical quantum mechanics and molecular docking analysis

Akpovwehwee A. Anigboro et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the methanolic leaf extract of Justicia carnea (MEJC) possesses antioxidant and anti-obesity potentials by inhibiting pancreatic lipase activity. In silico evaluations indicated that MEJC bioactive compounds could be potential drug-like agents and PL inhibitors. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) identified compounds with high binding affinity to PL, suggesting MEJC could be a rich natural source for developing new anti-obesity drugs.

Proteinous pancreatic lipase inhibitor is responsible for the antiobesity effect of young barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) leaf extract

Eisuke Kato et al.

Summary: Young barley leaf extract (YB) has pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity, which reduces lipid absorption and exhibits antiobesity effects. Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase in YB serves as a proteinous lipase inhibitor, showing characteristic inhibition at a low concentration of 16 ng/mL.

A novel strategy for exploring food originated anti-adipogenesis substances and mechanism by structural similarity evaluation, ADME prediction, network pharmacology and experimental validation

Feng-xiang Zhang et al.

Summary: Screening potential functional substances based on active compounds remains a challenge due to the vast number of compounds in natural products. In this study, an integrated strategy combining structural similarity evaluation, ADME prediction, network pharmacology, and experimental validation (SANE strategy) successfully identified 8-prenylgenistein (8PG) as a potent anti-adipogenesis compound. This study provides new insights for exploring compounds with accurate effects and suggests 8PG as a potential candidate for suppressing adipogenesis.

Network medicine framework shows that proximity of polyphenol targets and disease proteins predicts therapeutic effects of polyphenols

Italo F. do Valle et al.

Summary: The network medicine framework explores molecular interactions between polyphenol targets and proteins associated with diseases, predicting therapeutic effects and highlighting the potential for network medicine in nutritional sciences. Polyphenols, natural compounds found in plant-based foods, play a protective role against complex diseases through antioxidant activity and diverse molecular mechanisms. These interactions can help uncover mechanisms for the effects of polyphenols on health and predict therapeutic effects of specific molecules on diseases.
