Nutritional and Health Potential of Edible Seeds: Micronutrient Bioavailability and Mechanistic Insights

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Their bioactive constituents act through antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and metabolic‐regulating mechanisms, validating their classification as functional foods. Evidence from clinical and biochemical studies largely supports these benefits, although some claims stem from preliminary or in vitro findings.

Recent Progressions in Applications of Bioactive Polysaccharides in Food and Health Sciences: A Comprehensive Review

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Polysaccharides play a pivotal role in the development of safe and healthy foods. They ameliorate fatigue, preserve the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract, and provide health for the gut in living organisms. These biopolymers are applied for the fabrication of breakthrough drug delivery systems and potential platforms in regenerative medicine ...

Structural Characterization and Antioxidant Activity of Polysaccharides From Indigo Naturalis Ophiopogon japonicus: Effects of Processing and Extraction Methods

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Indigo naturalis processing significantly increased polysaccharide and uronic acid content, altered monosaccharide composition, and introduced high‐molecular‐weight fractions. Structural changes enhanced DPPH and superoxide anion scavenging activities, especially in reflux‐extracted processed samples (W‐IP, IC50 = 3.19 mg/mL).

Acute Toxicity and Genotoxicity of cMoL, a Lectin From Moringa oleifera Seeds With Antifungal Activity Against Cryptococcus Strains

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 682-696, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Coagulant Moringa oleifera lectin (cMoL) is one of the compounds involved in the application of M. oleifera seeds for traditional water treatment methods. The present study highlights the new biotechnological potential of cMoL lectin as an antifungal agent against Cryptococcus neoformans B3501 and H99 and Cryptococcus gattii R265 strains ...

18‐FDG PET in the Evaluation of Therapeutic Response of Necrotizing Otitis Externa

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 2, Page 961-971, February 2026.
PET performed well in assessing the therapeutic response of NEO, with excellent sensitivity but low specificity of visual analysis. A complementary quantitative analysis was useful to distinguish between satisfactory and insufficient partial responses. ABSTRACT Objective The duration of antibiotic treatment for necrotizing otitis externa (NEO) and the ...

Natural Products in Cancer Prevention and Therapy: Current Challenges and Future Directions

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
Natural products play a pivotal role in cancer therapy. They induce cancer cell death by reprogramming four metabolic pathways while precisely targeting the tumor microenvironment and immune cells. These compounds not only leverage novel delivery systems for innovative applications but also demonstrate unique therapeutic efficacy across clinical stages:
