Summary: The study isolated six known compounds from the roots of Phyllanthus emblica, with secofriedelanophyllemblicine showing specific growth inhibition on MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Flow cytometric analysis indicated that secofriedelanophyllemblicine could induce G2 phase arrest in the cell-cycle progression of MCF-7 cells, suggesting its potential as a chemopreventive agent for breast cancer.

Summary: In this study, NKA-II resin was used to separate and purify the polyphenol extract from Phyllanthus emblica L. pomace. The purified extract showed significantly higher polyphenol content, improved antioxidant activity, and potential anti-Alzheimer's effects. These results suggest that the separated polyphenols from P. emblica pomace have valuable applications in research and development, and contribute to the utilization of P. emblica fruit.

Summary: Prenatal infection with CVB3 can induce congenital heart defects in fetuses, with a dose-response relationship observed between viral titers and defect severity. Following exposure to CVB3, a significant decrease in cardiomyocyte proliferation was identified as the main cause for alterations in cardiac architecture and trabeculation.

Summary: As human lifespan increases, there is a growing focus on external beauty management. However, this approach may have side effects or short-lived effects. It is therefore necessary to conduct research and development to maximize the effectiveness, eco-friendliness, and sustainability of beauty management. This study aimed to experimentally identify the anti-aging effects of extracts from Bahera, Phyllanthus emblica, Triphala, and Carica papaya, and to confirm their potential as whitening and wrinkle functional cosmetic materials. The results showed that these extracts had significant effects on whitening and wrinkle improvement, with even greater effects observed when ethanol was used as a co-solvent. This study has important practical implications for the beauty industry.

Summary: This study aimed to elucidate the multitarget mechanisms of Phyllanthus emblica (PE) in treating liver fibrosis through proteomics analysis. The low-molecular-weight fraction of PE was found to have significant anti-liver fibrosis activity. Proteomics analysis identified potential targets, including COL1A2, ITGAV, TLR2, ACE, and PDGFRB, for PE treatment of liver fibrosis.

Summary: The present study investigated the inhibition mechanism of polyphenols from Phyllanthus emblica Linn. fruit (PEF) on acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The most active components in PEF, including myricetin, quercetin, fisetin, and gallic acid, showed strong inhibition ability on AChE. Kinetic studies revealed different inhibition modes for different polyphenols. The active PEF polyphenols inhibited AChE by quenching its intrinsic fluorescence and inducing changes in its secondary structure.
