Bt agave: why it is time to explore a new biotechnological frontier
Drylands cover 41% of Earth, requiring sustainable crops. Agave, drought‐ and heat‐adapted, offers high‐value products with low water needs. Pests limit yield, yet Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) Cry proteins, successful in other plants, remain unexploited in Agave.

Functions of cathepsin K in bone resorption: Lessons from cathepsin K deficient mice
Cathepsin K is a cysteine proteinase expressed predominantly in osteoclasts. Cathepsin K cleaves key bone matrix proteins and is believed to play an important role in degrading the organic phase of bone during bone resorption.

Isothiocyanates as Ferroptosis Inducers to Promote Cancer Cell Death
ABSTRACT Cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality, with the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs often hampered by late diagnosis and the development of chemotherapy resistance. Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent form of regulated non‐apoptotic cell death driven by lipid peroxidation.

Peptide‐based responsive molecular fluorescent probes for precision oncology
Peptide‐based responsive fluorescent probes have emerged as adaptive functional materials for precision tumor theranostics, combining tumor‐selective recognition, programmable stimulus responsiveness, and modular tunability. They enable high‐contrast imaging, intraoperative guidance, real‐time monitoring, and multimodal applications, while next ...

Photo‐responsive carbon dots for pyroptosis‐mediated anti‐tumor application
Photo‐responsive CDs generate ROS to induce tumor cell pyroptosis, thereby stimulating antitumor immunity. Abstract Pyroptosis refers to a kind of lytic programmed cell death, characterized by the release of pro‐inflammatory cytokines during the process. Owing to its immune response stimulation ability, pyroptosis has garnered considerable attention in

Biomarkers to predict outcomes in diabetic foot ulcers
Studies attempting to predict the healing outcome of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have investigated various biological materials and recovered molecules that may aid in discriminating wounds that will heal and those that will not heal. This graphical abstract captures the commonly studied classes of biomarkers in the context of DFUs.
