In this study, we investigated underlining mechanisms of the high antitumor effect of aHP using cell experiments. Time-lapse imaging of rat gastric cancerous cell line (RGK45) treated with aHP exhibited swelling, cell rupture, and subsequent scattering of small vesicles upon light irradiation, in contrast to the small changes in morphology of RGK45 treated with HP. Furthermore, aHP presented concentrated localization on the cell membranes to a greater extent than HP.

Flow cytometry analysis demonstrated a higher fluorescence of wheat germ agglutinin-conjugated dye in RGK45 than in RGM1, suggesting differential glycan expression patterns. These findings collectively suggest that the cellular toxicity of aHP may be augmented in RGK45 cells owing to its heightened affinity toward negatively charged structures on cellular membranes and its preferential localization on them.

The study included 786 participants aged ≥65 years from the Kyotango Multipurpose Cohort Study who had available data on their gut microbiota. Frailty was quantitatively assessed by selecting 32 items from the previously reported frailty index, with those scoring ≥0.21 classified as frailty (<i>n</i> = 119) and those with scores <0.21 as non-frailty (<i>n</i> = 667), followed by group comparisons. The frailty group had significantly higher values and rates than the non-frailty group for the following items: age, obesity (in females only), diabetes, hypertension, history of cancer treatment, polypharmacy, disturbed sleep quality, low physical activity, serum insulin levels, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein. The frailty group had significantly lower levels of nutrients, including plant proteins, potassium (K), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), vitamins B and C, folic acid, and total, soluble, and insoluble dietary fiber. When analyzed by food groups of dietary fiber, the frailty group had significantly lower intakes of soy products and non-green-yellow vegetables, specifically.

Plasma-activated medium exerts inhibitory effect on many types of tumor cells with little toxicity to non-cancerous cells. In present study, we verified the tumor-specific inhibition of plasma-activated medium on hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. Under the effect of plasma-activated medium, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and loss of intracellular NAD<sup>+</sup> and ATP were detected inside cells, suggesting an energy depletion. Through investigating the salvage pathway which synthesizes NAD<sup>+</sup> and maintains the respiratory chain in hepatocellular carcinoma, we found that the energy failure was resulted by the blockage of the salvage pathway. Moreover, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the salvage pathway, was determined as an important target to be inactivated by the effect of plasma-activated medium. Additionally, the blockage of the salvage pathway activates AMPKα and suppresses mTOR pathway, which reinforces the cell growth inhibition.

Bioinformatics analysis was used to determine the upstream regulatory factor of RECQL4 and CREB1. Their binding relationship was evaluated by dual luciferase and Chromatin Immunoprecipitation assays.
