Phytotherapeutic Regulation of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Diabetic Foot Ulcer: Molecular Mechanisms and Wound Healing Perspectives

open access: yesPhytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Chronic inflammation in diabetic foot ulcers elevates MMP activity and suppresses TIMP and growth factor signaling, impairing tissue repair. Phytochemicals modulate NF‐κB/MAPK pathways and enhance Nrf2–TIMP expression, restoring MMP/TIMP balance, promoting collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and re‐epithelialization, leading to effective wound healing ...

Ca2+‐Activated Cl− Channels: Do Bestrophins and TMEM16A Interact?

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances are present in many cell types and are important for regulating membrane potential as well as other cellular functions. TMEM16A is widely accepted as the principal molecular basis for Ca2+‐activated Cl– conductances, but also members of the bestrophin family may be important for some Ca2+‐activated Cl ...

Defence traits vary across leaf ages in the thistles (Cardueae)

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 5, Page 1517-1531, May 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants produce a variety of structural and chemical defences to deter herbivores, which can covary across every scale of biological organization. Along these lines, it has been suggested that young leaves differ from old leaves in their defence strategies, but studies ...
