Goniothalamin as a Styryl‐Lactone Toxicophore in Cancer Models: Electrophile‐Driven DNA Damage, Reactive Oxygen Species–Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signaling and Detoxification‐Relevant Safety Considerations

Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 8, August 2026.
Goniothalamin (GTN) exerts anticancer effects by promoting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, glutathione (GSH) depletion, DNA damage, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. These interconnected events trigger apoptosis, necroptosis, anoikis, and autophagy, while modulating mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK ...

On‐site pilot‐scale advanced oxidation pretreatment of hospital wastewater: assessment of pharmaceuticals, pathogens, antibiotic resistance genes and acute ecotoxicity

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 8, Page 1478-1491, August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Hospital premises generate wastewater containing a wide spectrum of contaminants, such as pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and pathogenic microorganisms, whilst plenty of them are classified under the antibiotic resistant bacteria (ΑRΒ) category.

Occurrence of Antimicrobial Resistance in Kocuria rhizophila Bacteria Isolated From Salmo munzuricus (Teleostei: Salmonidae) Samples in Natural Resources

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
This study examined the antibiotic susceptibility of Kocuria rhizophila isolated from Salmo munzuricus samples taken from the Munzur River. The isolates are resistant to Penicillin G, moderately susceptible to gentamicin and tetracycline, and highly susceptible to amoxicillin and ampicillin.

De novo or Salvage? Nucleotide Availability as a Driver of Bacterial Adaptation and Virulence

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial pathogens survive in different host environments by switching between making nucleotides by de novo synthesis and scavenging them from the host. This flexibility supports growth and virulence making nucleotide metabolism an attractive therapeutic target.

Seasonal Restructuring of Microbial Communities and Resistomes in the Shitalakshya River, Bangladesh Revealed by Shotgun Metagenomics

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Dry‐season pollutant concentration drives microbial restructuring in Bangladesh's Shitalakshya River, shifting communities from Myroides to stress‐tolerant genera while enriching metal resistance genes and efflux pumps, revealing non‐antibiotic co‐selection as a key driver of antimicrobial resistance in urban waters.

Comparative Analysis of Chlorhexidine Derivatives and Alternative Agents on Streptococcus mutans Viability, Biofilm Formation, and Gene Expression

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Chlorhexidine gluconate and alexidine potently kill S. mutans, disrupt biofilms, and downregulate virulence genes, yet show moderate cytotoxicity. In contrast, sub‐MIC amoxicillin paradoxically promotes biofilm formation, highlighting the need for targeted antibiofilm therapies. ABSTRACT This study evaluates the antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects of

One Health Insights From Pteropus medius: Nipah Virus Spillover, Microbiota, and Antimicrobial Resistance

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 4, August 2026.
Environmental and anthropogenic drivers of antibiotic resistance dissemination. The cycle reinforces how anthropogenic inputs, such as sewage, animal dung, hospital effluent, and agricultural runoff bring resistant bacteria and antibiotic residues into soil and water.
