Primary Structure Analysis of Antifungal Peptides from Cultivated and Wild Cereals

Plants, 2018
Cereal-derived bioactive peptides with antimicrobial activity have been poorly explored compared to those from dicotyledonous plants. Furthermore, there are a few reports addressing the structural differences between antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from ...

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Hyaluronic acid: A novel approach in regenerative/reconstructive periodontal therapy?

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although hyaluronic acid (HA) has long been used for many medical applications, only in recent years has it gained greater popularity in the field of periodontics because of its biological effects during wound healing. Even today, most clinicians are not aware that more than one type of HA exists and that the extent of its ...

From the Proteome to Therapeutics: A Multi‐Database Approach to Drug Discovery in Periodontitis—An Exploratory Pilot Study

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page 990-1004, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction This explanatory pilot study presents a workflow to identify approved drugs, which could be repurposed for periodontitis therapy using salivary proteomics combined with drug‐target database screening. Methods Proteomic analyses of saliva using LC–MS/MS were conducted in two independent settings: a cohort (sub‐study I, N = 187) and

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3500-3517, July 2026.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.

Dual‐Peptide Nanoplatform: Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles Functionalized With a Cell‐Penetrating Peptide and Loaded With Rationally Designed Antimicrobial Peptides for Tuberculosis Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 15, Issue 21, 5 June 2026.
Machine learning–guided engineering of a plectasin‐derived peptide yields DC05, a potent antimycobacterial candidate. Encapsulation into tuftsin‐functionalized mesoporous silica nanoparticles enhances intracellular delivery, stability, and activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis while maintaining low cytotoxicity and minimal hemolysis. The combined

Decoding Aquaculture's Future: A Review of Molecular Docking and Simulation in Enhancing Growth and Disease Resistance

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aquaculture has overtaken capture fisheries as the main source of aquatic animal protein, marking a critical step in global food security. Yet, rapid intensification faces major challenges, including disease outbreaks, environmental degradation, and dependence on wild‐caught fish for feed.

Detection of Infection Following an Open Tibial Fracture via Synovial Alpha-defensins

Journal of Limb Lengthening & Reconstruction
Fracture-related infections are challenging complications following the fixation of open fractures. Because of commonly used surgical approaches used for intramedullary nailing, the knee joint is also susceptible to infection following fixation, either ...
