Research on Stress Biology Detailed by a Researcher at Complutense University Madrid (Enhanced Production of Therapeutic Metabolites in Cork-Oak Somatic Embryos under Abiotic Stress Conditions).

A recent study conducted at Complutense University Madrid in Spain explores the enhanced production of therapeutic metabolites in cork-oak somatic embryos under abiotic stress conditions. The researchers found significant increases in the levels of key therapeutic metabolites, such as ellagic acid, serotonin, and chlorogenic acid, in response to various stressors. These compounds are known for their antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-COVID-19 properties. The study suggests that this research could pave the way for large-scale production of health-beneficial metabolites, addressing global health challenges and promoting resource sustainability.
