The fruit population of most plants is under the control of a process named "physiological drop" to selectively abort some developing fruitlets. However, frequent fruitlet abscission severely restrict...
The levels of gibberellin acid, jasmonic acid, salicylic acid, abscisic acid and zeatin were elevated, while the indole-3-acetic acid and indole-3-carboxaldehyde levels were declined in the "about-to-...
These results unraveled a phytohormone signaling cross talk and key genes involved in the fruitlet abscission process in A. catechu. This study not only provides a theoretical basis for fruitlet absci...
Areca nut is an economic crop and an important component in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and ethnomedicine. The crop is rich in alkaloids and flavonoids. Most previous studies have focused on th...
The purpose of this study was to compare the differences in areca nut seeds in two main cultivation areas, identify differential metabolites, and evaluate seed quality in different production areas....
A widely targeted metabolomics method based on ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QQQ-MS), combined with the TCM systems pharmacology (...
Altogether, 1031 metabolites were identified in areca nut seeds; by querying the TCMSP database, 375 metabolites were identified as the main active ingredients. Moreover, the research showed that the ...
The areca nut seeds from cultivation areas possess many metabolites that are beneficial for health, including alkaloids, amino acids, phenolic acids, and lipids. Thus, compared with ASSA, ASCN have a ...
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent type of head and neck cancer and is associated with high mortality, particularly in Southeast Asian countries. Areca nut usage, smoking, and a...
The study was conducted using the data of 228 patients with OSCC resected at Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, Pakistan, over 5 years between 2018 and 2022. Clinicopathological data were collected f...
Males were more commonly affected (77.2%), and the most common age group was <50 years (54.4%). Areca nut usage was reported in 59.6% of cases, and the buccal mucosa was the most common site (62.7%). ...
Areca nut-related OSCCs were associated with poor prognosis and recurrence in our study population. Furthermore, OSCC recurrence was associated with various clinicopathological parameters, such as lar...
Consumption of areca nut and tobacco, often initiated in adolescence, are important causes of oral cancers in India. Areca nut prevention, often subsumed into school tobacco prevention programs, assum...
A cross-sectional survey with school-students attending grades 7, 8, 9 was used to compare differences in age, gender, knowledge, and attitudes among areca nut only users, tobacco-only, users of both,...
Of 1909 respondents, 464 (24.3%) used only areca nut, 25 (1.3%) used only tobacco, 177 (9.3%) used both, and 1243 (65.1%) were never-users. Females, overwhelmingly, consumed only areca nut. Users of b...
Differences in gender, age, and behavioral determinants such as subjective norms and perceived behavioral control between the different types of users underlines the need for prevention and cessation ...
Evidence for seed transmission of phytoplasmas has grown in several pathosystems including coconut (Cocos nucifera). Bogia coconut syndrome (BCS) is a disease associated with the lethal yellowing synd...
Areca nut (AN) use receives less global attention than tobacco use. Studies have linked AN consumption to a range of adverse health effects, including oral cavity and pharyngeal cancers, periodontal d...
This analysis uses secondary data from the Bhutan STEPS Survey 2019 that included 5575 participants aged 15-69 years, selected using multistage stratified cluster sampling. The outcome variable of int...
The prevalence of current AN use was 56.82% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 54.27-59.33). A significantly higher prevalence of 63.58% (95% CI: 60.58-66.48) was found in the age group of 25-39 years. To...
Age, alcohol use, and tobacco use were associated with current AN use in Bhutan. There is a need to regulate access to AN while targeting young and middle-aged individuals with public health and behav...
Chewing areca nuts is popular in China. Areca alkaloids are the major toxic compounds in areca nuts. In this study, the levels of four areca alkaloids (i.e. arecoline, arecaidine, guvacoline and guvac...
The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13197-024-05966-6....
The association between areca nut consumption and oral cancer has been a subject of increasing concern in global public health....
Areca nut, often chewed in various forms such as betel quid, is deeply rooted in cultural practices across Asia and other parts of the world. Epidemiological studies consistently reveal a significant ...
Efforts to address this public health challenge involve multidisciplinary approaches, encompassing education, policy implementation, and behavioral interventions. Understanding the socio-cultural fact...
As oral cancer remains a significant global health burden, unraveling the nuanced relationship between areca nut and its role in oral carcinogenesis is crucial for advancing preventive strategies and ...
Areca nut (AN) is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine used for centuries to treat gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Charred AN (CAN) is a processed product of AN with similar therapeutic effects. Thi...
In this study, the rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (...
The results demonstrated that both AN and CAN could alleviate loperamide-induced constipation. Furthermore, they significantly elevated the serum levels of motilin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, subs...
In summary, this study revealed that AN may protect GI mucosa, enhance GI motility, and alleviate constipation symptoms by regulating the relative abundance of specific gut microbiota (...
Areca nut, the fruit of A. catechu, is an important Chinese herbal medicine and is the first of China's "four southern medicines". The main chemical components are alkaloids, phenols, polysaccharides,...
In view of the two sides of pharmacology and toxicology of areca nut, this study comprehensively reviewed the components of different parts of A. catechu, the mechanism of pharmacology and toxicology,...
We used "Areca nut", "Betel nut", and known biologically active ingredients in areca nut, combined with "natural active ingredients", "pharmacological activity", and "toxicological effect" as keywords...
A large number of studies have shown that low-dose areca nut has pharmacological effects such as deworming, anti-inflammatory, improving gastrointestinal function, lowering blood lipids, preventing at...
