Bioactivity-guided isolation of ginsenosides from Korean Red Ginseng with cytotoxic activity against human lung adenocarcinoma cells.

TLDR
Bioactivity-guided fractionation of the KRG extract revealed that its ethyl acetate–soluble fraction exerts significant cytotoxic activity against all human lung cancer cell lines tested by inducing apoptosis, providing experimental evidence for a novel biological activity of ginsenoside Rg3 againsthuman lung cancer cells.

Pharmacological potential of ginseng and its major component ginsenosides

TL;DR: Ginseng could be a valuable resource for future drug development; however, further higher quality evidence is required as it may have drug interactions although the available evidence suggests it is a relatively safe product.

Suppression of 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Oxidative Stress by Hyperoside Via Activation of Nrf2/HO-1 Signaling in Dopaminergic Neurons

TL;DR: Hyperoside, via the induction of Nrf2-dependent HO-1 activation, suppresses neuronal death caused by 6-OHDA-induced oxidative stress, and represents a potential preventive and therapeutic target in Parkinson′s disease management.

Antifungal Phenols from Woodfordia uniflora Collected in Oman

TL;DR: Phytochemical screening of the extract of W. uniflora found three new phenolic compounds, including woodfordiamycin, woodfordic acid, and rhamnetin 3-O-(6″-galloyl)-β-d-glucopyranoside, which showed antifungal activity against human fungal pathogens Cryptococcus neoformans and Candida albicans.

Herqueilenone A, a unique rearranged benzoquinone-chromanone from the Hawaiian volcanic soil-associated fungal strain Penicillium herquei FT729.

TL;DR: The study of a Hawaiian volcanic soil-associated fungal strain Penicillium herquei FT729 led to the isolation of one unprecedented benzoquinone-chromanone, herqueilenone A and two phenalenone derivatives, whose structures were determined through extensive analysis of NMR spectroscopic data and gauge-including atomic orbital (GIAO) NMR chemical shifts and ECD calculations.

Apoptosis: A Review of Programmed Cell Death

TL;DR: The goal of this review is to provide a general overview of current knowledge on the process of apoptosis including morphology, biochemistry, the role of apoptoses in health and disease, detection methods, as well as a discussion of potential alternative forms of apoptotic proteins.

Specific Proteolytic Cleavage of Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase: An Early Marker of Chemotherapy-induced Apoptosis

TL;DR: The results suggest that proteolytic cleavage of pADPRp, in addition to being an early marker of chemotherapy-induced apoptosis, might reflect more widespread proteolysis that is a critical biochemical event early during the process of physiological cell death.

Apoptosis-inducing factor is involved in the regulation of caspase-independent neuronal cell death

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that p53 can induce neuronal cell death via a caspase-mediated process activated by apoptotic activating factor-1 (Apaf1) and via a delayed onset casp enzyme-independent mechanism, and that apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) is an important factor involved in the regulation of this caspases-independent neuronal cellDeath.
