Plant Secondary Metabolites as Defense Tools against Herbivores for Sustainable Crop Protection

Pratap Adinath Divekar et al.

Summary: Plants have evolved adaptive strategies to defend against herbivores by synthesizing plant secondary metabolites (PSMs). PSMs play important roles in detecting and responding to herbivore attacks, and have limited adaptability to insects. They cause direct toxicity to pests and indirectly protect plants by attracting herbivore natural enemies. Understanding the molecular regulation of PSM biosynthesis can contribute to improving plant tolerance to herbivores.

A comprehensive review on time-tested anticancer drug doxorubicin

Sruthi Sritharan et al.

Summary: Doxorubicin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug for cancer treatment, inducing cell death through various mechanisms and aiding in immune clearance of tumor cells, but its applicability is limited by the development of chemoresistance and cardiotoxicity. Various formulations and co-treatments are essential in reducing toxicity and combating resistance. Further research into the molecular mechanisms of chemoresistance development is crucial for improving patient survivability and preventing cancer relapse.

Snail mucus from the mantle and foot of two land snails, Lissachatina fulica and Hemiplecta distincta, exhibits different protein profile and biological activity

Nattaphop Noothuan et al.

Summary: The protein composition and biological activities of snail slime differ between the mantle and foot secretions of two snail species, with the mantle secretion showing higher antibacterial activity. The slime from Hemiplecta distincta also displayed antibacterial properties, but to a lesser extent compared to Lissachatina fulica. Both foot and mantle slime exhibited anti-tyrosinase and antioxidant activity without significant differences. These findings suggest potential variations in protein compositions and activities for medical applications.
