Metabolism of Speciociliatine, an Overlooked Kratom Alkaloid for its Potential Pharmacological Effects

Shyam H. Kamble et al.

Summary: Speciociliatine, a diastereomer of mitragynine, is rapidly metabolized in liver microsomes and hepatocytes through monooxidation and O-demethylation pathways in various species. The metabolism of speciociliatine is predominantly mediated by CYP3A4, with minor contributions from CYP2D6. Slow metabolism of speciociliatine was observed in human and dog hepatocytes, with a longer half-life compared to other species.

Effect of Photoperiod, Propagative Material, and Production Period on Greenhouse-grown Ginger and Turmeric Plants

Sofia Flores et al.

Summary: The study aimed to compare the growth and yield of different ginger and turmeric propagules grown under different photoperiods, as well as to evaluate the possibility of extending their growing season with night interruption lighting. The results showed that providing night interruption lighting increased the rhizome yield and dry mass partitioning to rhizomes in both species, indicating the potential to overcome winter dormancy and achieve higher rhizome yield under natural short days.
