research Phytochemistry, Pharmacological Activity, And Potential Health Benefits Of Glycyrrhiza Glabra
The review on Glycyrrhiza glabra, or licorice, highlighted its diverse phytochemical constituents and pharmacological activities, noting compounds like glycyrrhizin for their anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial effects. Licorice was recognized for stimulating hair growth, showing better results than 2% minoxidil in treating alopecia. It also provided benefits such as controlling obesity, hepatoprotection, and memory enhancement. The review compiled data from 144 articles, emphasizing traditional uses and potential side effects. Licorice exhibited anticoagulant, antimalarial, and antispasmodic activities, and showed promise in managing diabetes, dyslipidemia, and various cancers. Despite its therapeutic potential, the review cautioned about possible toxicological effects and the need for controlled use and further research.

research A Transition State Analogue of 5′-Methylthioadenosine Phosphorylase Induces Apoptosis in Head and Neck Cancers
The study explored the effects of MT-DADMe-ImmA, an inhibitor of 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP), on head and neck cancer cell lines, particularly FaDu and Cal27. The treatment with MT-DADMe-ImmA and 5′-methylthioadenosine (MTA) increased MTA concentrations, decreased polyamines, and induced apoptosis in these cancer cells by causing mitochondrial dysfunction and changes in DNA methylation. The combination treatment was selective for cancer cells, sparing normal fibroblasts and MTAP-deficient breast cancer cells. In a mouse model, MT-DADMe-ImmA led to tumor remission without significant toxicity, suggesting its potential as a selective anticancer agent for tumors sensitive to reduced CpG island methylation.
