Gastroprotective Effects of Nettle‐ and Carob‐Enriched Snail Mucus in a Rat Model of Gastric Injury: Role of Antioxidant and Anti‐Inflammatory Mechanisms

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Dietary enrichment of Helix aspersa mucus with Urtica dioica or Ceratonia siliqua extracts increased its phenolic, flavonoid, protein, and glycoprotein content in a dose‐dependent manner, with nettle showing the strongest effect. In an ethanol‐induced rat model of gastric ulcer, the 30% nettle‐enriched mucus (SSUD30%) markedly reduced gastric lesions ...

Root Structural and Metabolic Plasticity Confers Tolerance to Salinity in Wild Barley Species Grown Under Waterlogging

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5593-5606, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Salinity combined with waterlogging is a major abiotic stress that severely limits crop growth and yield. We investigated species‐specific adaptations to salinity under constant waterlogging conditions in the wild halophytic barleys Hordeum marinum and H. glaucum, compared with the cultivated H. vulgare.

Pharmacology, Medicinal Chemistry, and Therapeutic Potential of Imidazoline Receptor Ligands

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 13, 14 July 2026.
Building on the excellent review article by Dardonville and Rozas (2004), this paper summarizes the most representative ligands of imidazoline receptors (IR; I1, I2, and I3) and updates their pharmacological profiles. Although not exhaustive, it provides a solid starting point for understanding the significance of I2 IRs as promising therapeutic ...

Designing of an Ultrasensitive Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor Based on Strontium Titanate and Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Material for the Detection of Uric Acid

Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
The proposed surface plasmon resonance biosensor with prism/Ag/WS2/SrTiO3/Ni layers enables highly sensitive and precise detection of uric acid through enhanced plasmonic response and sharp resonance characteristics. Elevated uric acid (UA) levels are associated with various disorders, making precise and quick detection important for early diagnosis ...
