Article Abstract
Background: Human brain tumor glioblastoma (GBM) is the most hostile malignancy, currently lacking a successful cure and good prognosis.
Objective: To examine the anticancer effects of syringic acid (SA) on human cancer GBM cells.
Methodology: The different doses of SA were added to GBM cells to study its effect on viability, invasion, relocation, apoptosis, and mRNA and protein levels. Hence, we explored the antiproliferative, anti-invasive, and apoptotic activity of SA on GBM human U-251 cells.
Results: MTT assay and live/dead assay revealed the anti-proliferative activity of SA on U-251 glioma cells. Apoptotic activity of SA was shown by DAPI staining, caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2 mRNA expressions. The cell cycle regulation was also confirmed by reducing the mRNA expression of cyclinD1, CDK4, and CDK6. Treatment of SA with U-251 cells suppressed MMPs expressions and enhanced TIMPs protein levels.
Conclusion: Our findings put forward that SA could prevent GBM cells' invasion and relocation. SA is an ideal neuroprotective agent for controlling brain malignancy.

The objective of this investigation was to assess the biological properties of the leaf's aqueous extract of (PaAE), which is used in conventional medicine for therapeutic purposes of gastric ulcers and abdominal diseases. The content of phenolic and flavonoidic compounds was quantitatively estimated using colorimetric methods. The phenolic component profile was also evaluated using LC-MS/MS.

Coconut flesh, the solid endosperm, of coconut, which is rich in fat, protein and polyphenols. To investigate the impact of ultrasound treatment on the biosynthesis of polyphenols in tender coconut flesh during storage, the targeted metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses were employed. A total of 36 phenolic compounds were identified, of which catechin, epicatechin, gossypol and vanillic acid were the most abundant ones in 'Hainan Tall' coconut flesh.

is a valuable traditional Chinese medicinal plant that is prone to germplasm degradation during long-term continuous monoculture. Allelopathic autotoxicity, which is mediated primarily by phenolic acids, is considered a major factor contributing to this degradation. To reveal the accumulation patterns of phenolic acids in the rhizospheric soil of under continuous monoculture, five phenolic acids (-hydroxybenzoic acid, vanillic acid, syringic acid, -coumaric acid, and ferulic acid) in the rhizospheric soil of across 1-5 y, and various fertilizer regimes (chemical fertilizer, chemical fertilizer + organic fertilizer, and organic fertilizer) were determined to assess their accumulation characteristics, along with soil fertility parameters.

Aims: Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae), a multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen implicated in pneumonia and nosocomial infections, employs biofilm formation to evade antimicrobial therapies.
Methods: This study investigates how propolis and its key bioactive constituents-naringenin, taxifolin, syringic acid, and gallic acid-disrupt biofilm development and stability in K.

Syringic acid (SYA) is a significant phenolic compound with the potential for various biomedical uses, including uses of its hepatoprotective properties. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a drug used in the treatment of several tumors, but its side effects, particularly hepatotoxicity, limit its effectiveness. This study investigated the therapeutic effects of SYA on DOX-induced hepatic injury in rats.
