Tomato‐Soy Juice Reduces Inflammation and Modulates the Urinary Metabolome in Adults With Obesity

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 5, 12 March 2026.
Compared to pre‐intervention, consuming a tomato‐soy juice (54 mg lycopene, 189 mg soy isoflavones/d) reduced levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL‐5, IL‐12p70, and GM‐CSF, with TNF‐alpha trending downward), increased plasma lycopene and urinary soy isoflavone metabolites, and altered the urinary metabolome. ABSTRACT Chronic, low‐grade inflammation is a

Biostimulatory Potential of Sargassum muticum Extracts in Enhancing Sesame Tolerance to Water Deficit During Germination and Seedling Growth

New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science, Volume 54, Issue 1, March 2026.
Water deficit is a major abiotic stress that limits plant growth and productivity. This article evaluates the effectiveness of an aqueous seaweed extract (ASE) from Sargassum muticum as an ecofriendly biostimulant to alleviate water deficit stress during seed germination and early seedling growth of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.).

HvTT8 Regulates Proanthocyanidin Accumulation in the Barley Testa Layer by Transcriptionally Activating the Flavonoid Biosynthesis Pathway

Plant Direct, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Barley accumulates proanthocyanidins (PA), a type of flavonoid compound, in the testa layer. The accumulated PA have a detrimental effect on the quality of beer and pearled barley. Therefore, controlling PA accumulation in the testa layer is an important breeding objective in barley. PA accumulation is regulated by a ternary complex consisting

Viral Pathogens and Pulmonary Fibrosis: EMT‐Driven Mechanisms and Insights From Traditional Chinese Medicine

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a serious progressive complication of the respiratory system, which is profoundly associated with persistent extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, fibrosis, and disrupted tissue regeneration. Emerging evidence shows that epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) acts as a key factor in the pathogenesis of ...

Pyrazoline Derivatives: Synthesis, In Silico, Enzyme Kinetics Studies and Biological Activity against Cholinesterase, Lipoxygenase, and α‐Amylase

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 9, 5 March 2026.
ABSTRACT Nucleophilic cyclization of the α, β‐unsaturated carbonyl framework of the prepared (E)‐4‐(3‐bromo‐4‐hydroxy‐5‐methoxyphenyl)but‐3‐en‐2‐one with various hydrazine derivatives to afford their corresponding pyrazolines has been achieved. The enzyme assays conducted showed significant α‐amylase inhibitory activity for 4b with IC50 value of 2.7 µM.

Molecular polymorphisms that underlie trait variation in crops: Lessons learned from soybean

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Genetic variation within a germplasm is important in crop improvement, providing a foundation for breeders to develop new varieties. Traits of agronomic and economic importance are often mapped to identify the genetic basis of observed phenotypes, oftentimes using quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis.

Harnessing genomic resources for passion fruit improvement: Progress and prospects

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Passion fruit (Passiflora edulis) is a highly nutritious horticultural crop cultivated widely across tropical and subtropical regions. Despite decades of breeding efforts that have led to the release of a few high‐yielding cultivars, on‐farm productivity remains suboptimal, and several existing cultivars are showing signs of declining vigor ...

A Scaffoldomics Platform for Modular In Vivo Enzyme Colocalisation and Its Application to Naringenin Biosynthesis

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
A hierarchical assembly system was established in which the coding sequences for four docking enzymes and a scaffold are co‐assembled onto a single plasmid, thereby establishing a ‘scaffoldomics’ platform for the optimisation of multi‐enzyme biosynthetic pathways.
