Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious neurological disease with an extremely high disability rate. Most patients show loss of motor and sensory functions below the level injury. Current treatment protocols are based on early surgical decompression pharmacotherapy. However, efficacy these interventions suboptimal. Due to its complex pathophysiological mechanisms difficulty central nervous system (CNS) regeneration, exploring effective therapeutic remains daunting. Flavonoids secondary metabolites unique plants that have attracted attention in recent years for their potential now commonly used inflammation, tumors, other diseases. For SCI, related studies still exploring; some compounds, such as quercetin, fisetin, hesperetin, shown good anti-inflammatory anti-apoptotic properties, which help restore function injured spinal cord. flavonoids exhibit certain disadvantages, including poor solubility, low bioavailability, inability achieve long-term controlled release. Some proposed drug delivery strategies-including nanoparticles, hydrogels, collagen scaffolds-to enhance efficacy. In this paper, we summarize strategies SCI by searching relevant literature propose future research directions provide new ideas multimodal SCI.

Abstract The appearance of DNA damage often involves the participation related enzymes, which can affect onset and development various diseases. Several natural active compounds have been found to efficiently adjust activity crucial enzymes associated with single or double-strand damage, thus demonstrating their promise in treating This paper provides an in-depth examination summary these modulation mechanisms, leading a thorough review subject. connection between disease is explored through analysis structural characteristics compounds. By reviewing how different scholarly sources describe identical structures using varied terminology, this study also delves into effects on enzyme regulation. offers potentially be used therapeutically influence key activities expression levels, turn process repair (DDR). These shown not only reduce occurrence but boost efficiency processes, presenting new therapeutic opportunities for conditions such as cancer other pathologies. Future research should focus clarifying exact mechanisms maximize clinical utility support creation novel approaches prevention treatment. Graphical abstract

The ribosomal DNA (rDNA) plays a vital role in regulating protein synthesis by ribosome biogenesis, essential for maintaining cellular growth, metabolism, and more. Cancer cells show high dependence on biogenesis exhibit elevated rDNA transcriptional activity. CX-5461, also known as Pidnarulex, is First-in-Class anticancer drug that has received 'Fast Track Designation' approval from the FDA. Initially reported to inhibit Pol I-driven transcription, CX-5461 was recently identified G-quadruplex structure (G4) stabilizer currently completed or undergoing multiple Phase I clinical trials patients with breast ovarian cancers harboring BRCA1/2, PALB2, other repair deficiencies. Additionally, preclinical studies have confirmed demonstrates promising therapeutic effects against multifarious non-cancer diseases, including viral infections, autoimmune diseases. This review summarizes mechanisms of its inhibition rDNA, binding G4, toxicity towards topoisomerase, along research status across various Lastly, this highlights targeted therapy strategy based nanomedicine delivery, particularly delivery utilizing nucleic acid aptamer AS1411, which contains G4 motif specifically target highly expressed nucleolin surface tumor cell membranes; It anticipates coupling peptide acids locked achieve dual targeting, thereby realizing individualized G4-targeting CX-5461. aims provide general overview progress recent years suggest potential strategies disease treatment involving RNA synthesis, topoisomerase.

Though ubiquitous in nature, polyphenols gained scientific prominence only after the pioneering work of researchers like E. Fischer and K. Freudenberg, who demonstrated their potential beyond traditional applications, such as leather industry. Today, these bioactive compounds are recognized for diverse therapeutic roles, including use adjuvants cancer treatment, prevention, anti-inflammatory antioxidant properties. Additionally, have benefits managing obesity, cardiovascular diseases, neuromodulation. Their synthesis is influenced by environmental genetic factors, with concentrations varying based on intensity variables, well stage ripening. This review provides a comprehensive overview polyphenols, covering classification, chemical structures, bioavailability. The mechanisms influencing bioavailability, bioaccessibility, bioactivity explored detail, alongside an introduction to effects associated metabolic pathways. Specific examples, bioavailability coffee various types onions, analyzed. Despite promising biological activities, significant limitation lies inherently low oral However, systemic circulation by-products formed during digestion present exciting opportunities further research application.
