Melanoma is one of the most aggressive forms skin cancer and characterized by high metastatic potential. Despite improvements in early diagnosis treatment, mortality rate among melanoma patients continues to represent a significant clinical challenge. Therefore, it imperative that we search for new treatment. Trametes versicolor mushroom commonly used Chinese traditional medicine due its numerous beneficial properties. In present work, demonstrate T. fruiting body mycelium ethanol extracts exhibit potent cytotoxic activity towards A375 (IC50 = 663.3 114.5 µg/mL respectively) SK-MEL-5 358.4 88.6 human cell lines. Further studies revealed extract induced apoptotic death poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage, upregulated expression autophagy-associated marker LC3-II, increased presentation major histocompatibility complex II programmed death-ligand receptor, inhibited migration cells. our findings highlight therapeutic potential treatment merit further study.

Odd-chain fatty acids (OcFAs) and their derivatives have attracted much attention due to beneficial physiological effects potential be alternatives advanced fuels. However, cells naturally produce even-chain (EcFAs) with negligible OcFAs. In the process of biosynthesis (FAs), acetyl-CoA serves as starter unit for EcFAs, propionyl-CoA works The lack sufficient propionyl-CoA, precursor, is usually regarded main restriction large-scale bioproduction recent years, synthetic biology strategies been used modify several microorganisms more that would enable an efficient This review discusses reported metabolic pathways biosynthesis, followed by advances in engineering cell factories OcFAs production. Finally, trends challenges driven production are discussed.

Bananas, one of the most widely consumed fruits worldwide, are a rich source valuable phytochemicals. In this study, antioxidant and anticancer potential banana flesh was investigated. Of four kinds extracts, hexane extract (HE) had highest total polyphenol content (2.54 ± 0.60 mg GAE/g) flavonoid (1.69 0.34 RE/g), followed by chloroform fraction, ethanol extract, fraction. HE found to exert strong radical scavenging activity on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH•) 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid) (ABTS•) free radicals. According IC
