Beyond bacterial defences: the role of lysozyme in cancer
Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Lysozyme (LYZ) is a multi‐functional secreted factor that encompasses both antibacterial and immunomodulatory functions. Emerging evidence highlights its complex role in tumour progression by directly influencing tumour cells and modulating the immune microenvironment.

Dual‐function, Reusable, and Flexible Thermal Interface for Kinetic Monitoring of In Vitro Bioassays
Small Methods, Volume 10, Issue 3, 9 February 2026.This work presents a reusable, dual‐function thermal interface for non‐contact, label‐free sensing and microwell‐independent temperature control in microplates within a single element. Real‐time monitoring of E. coli growth and the response to antibiotic treatment demonstrates the sensor's enhanced sensitivity in interface‐dominated processes compared ...

Contributions of the pore-forming toxin Listeriolysin O to Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis [PDF]
, 2019 Listeriolysin O (LLO) is an essential determinant of Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis that mediates the escape of L. monocytogenes from host cell vacuoles, thereby allowing replication in the cytosol without causing appreciable cell death. As a member

Insect I‐Type Lysozymes Function as Antiviral Proteases by Forming Biomolecular Condensates
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.Upon rice viral infection, the insect vector activates the Toll–MyD88–Dorsal signaling cascade, inducing i‐type lysozyme (Lyz‐I1) expression. Lyz‐I1 functions as an antiviral protease through its conserved catalytic dyad Glu/Asp (E/D), mediating cleavage of viral proteins at specific Lys (K) residues.

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 1, Page 235-244, January 2026.We demonstrate that bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) can enhance antibiotic delivery into Gram‐negative bacteria by bypassing porin‐dependent uptake. Encapsulation of imipenem in OMVs significantly increased its effectiveness against multidrug‐resistant clinical isolates, highlighting OMVs as a promising platform for overcoming permeability ...

IET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.A characteristic of many neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, is amyloidogenic protein aggregation, for which there are currently no proven cures. Aging, mutation, and physiological stress can cause proteins to deviate from their natural folding patterns, potentially leading to the formation of hazardous protein aggregates.
