Liver pyruvate kinase (PKL) has recently emerged as a new target for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and inhibitors of this enzyme could represent therapeutic option. However, breakthrough is complicated by selectivity issues since exists in four different isoforms. In work, we report that ellagic acid (EA) its derivatives, present numerous fruits vegetables, can inhibit PKL potently selectively. Several polyphenolic analogues EA were synthesized tested to identify the chemical...

Excessive consumption of sucrose, in the form sugar-sweetened beverages, has been implicated pathogenesis metabolic dysfunctionLassociated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and other related syndromes. The c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway plays a crucial role response to dietary stressors, it was demonstrated that inhibition JNK could potentially be used treatment MAFLD. However, intricate mechanisms underlying these interventions remain incompletely understood given their multifaceted...

Background: Since its first discovery in the early 1980s, gram-negative bacterium Helicobacter pylori has attracted a lot of attention. Numerous gastrointestinal conditions, including peptic ulcers, chronic gastritis, and stomach malignancies, are linked to it. Therefore, purpose this study was determine prevalence H. infection among Quetta residents. Aims/Objectives: Estimating H pylori-associated gastritis District Quetta, Balochistan, as well identifying potential contributing demographic...

A large portion of applied phosphorus fertilizer undergoes adsorption/fixation due to high pH and calcareous content soils becomes unavailable for plant uptake. Plants undergo many morphological physiological adaptations overcome the low availability. Many plants modify their root morphology biomass in environments by exploring a greater more soil volume. This study measured adaptation at different levels its effect on use efficiency. Results showed that efficiency, volume, number tips,...

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) presents a significant global health challenge, characterized by the accumulation of fat and impacting considerable portion worldwide population. Despite its widespread occurrence, effective treatments for MAFLD are limited. The liver-specific isoform pyruvate kinase (PKL) has been identified as promising target developing therapies. Urolithin C, an allosteric inhibitor PKL, shown potential in preliminary studies. Expanding upon...

<title>Abstract</title> The pyruvate kinase L/R (PKLR) enzyme was associated with the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) identified as a potential drug target. Here, we first demonstrated anti-HCC effects recently developed six PKLR-modulating compounds, including SET135, SET156, SET158, SET159, SET171, SET172 JNK-IN-5A, repurposed compound for modulation PKLR based on systems biology. Compared multi-target...

Phytochemical investigations of the whole plant Stachys parviflora (Lamiaceae) resulted in isolation two new phenethyl alcohol glycosides. The structures compounds named parviflorosides A and B were established as 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-ethyl-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1 --> 2)-4-O-E-caffeoyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (1) 2)-6-O-E-caffeoyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (2), respectively. structure elucidation was based primarily on 1D 2D NMR analysis, including COSY, HMBC HMQC correlations.
