Pretreatment‐Driven Modulation of Green Mango Drying: Kinetics, Energy Consumption, Techno‐Functionality, and Environmental Sustainability

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hot‐air drying of green mango slices was evaluated following three pretreatments: citric acid (CA), hot water blanching (HWB), and steam blanching (SB). The effects of pretreatment and drying temperature were assessed through drying kinetics, thin‐layer modeling, thermodynamic properties, energy performance, product quality, and environmental impacts ...

Small Extracellular Vesicle‐Derived Nidogen 1 Promotes HCC Carcinogenesis via Transglutaminase 3‐Mediated YAP/TAZ Signalling

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 8, August 2026.
NID1‐rich sEVs released by HCC cells are internalized by recipient cells, where the C‐terminal region of NID1 binds to and stabilizes TGM3. This activates integrin‐FAK/Src/AKT and Hippo‐YAP/TAZ signalling, thereby promoting HCC proliferation, colony formation, migration, invasion, tumour growth, and lung metastasis.

Assessment of Sedative Activity of Protodioscin: In Vivo Approach Along With Receptor Binding Affinity and Molecular Interaction With GABAergic System

Progress in Neurology and Psychiatry, Volume 30, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A frequent sleep issue called insomnia can lead to a number of disorders, including despair and anxiety. In order to cure insomnia, this study aims to evaluate the sedative effects of PRO in Swiss mice and use an in silico approach to look into the molecular processes at play. In our investigation, five mice were given oral PRO at doses of 2.5

Improving Extreme Precipitation Forecasts via Cascade Binary Classification With Diffusion Post‐Processing

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate forecasting of extreme precipitation remains a critical challenge, owing to its heavy‐tailed distribution and severe class imbalance that limit conventional deep learning approaches. This study presents a two‐stage cascade‐diffusion framework for extreme precipitation forecasting over eastern China (110°–130°E, 20°–40°N).

An ANGPTL8‐AKT2‐mTOR Axis Drives Adipose Senescence and Aging‐Related Functional Decline

Aging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
ANGPTL8 increases with age in humans and mice and serves as a key predictor of biological aging and mortality. Adipocyte‐derived ANGPTL8 promotes cellular senescence through AKT2–mTOR signaling, whereas genetic deletion of Angptl8 attenuates adipose tissue aging and extends lifespan.

Reconfiguring biofortification strategies to transform food systems and address micronutrient deficiency of the 21st century

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2511-2547, August 2026.
This review explores how to make staple foods and horticultural crops more nutritious, including how artificial intelligence‐based screening of gene banks helps deploy nutritionally rich germplasm into breeding. Genome editing can help develop crops richer in minerals, vitamins, and health‐promoting compounds, supporting healthier diets and more ...
