Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in Candida spp. biofilms: In vitro and in vivo protocols
This review addresses the critical challenges in translating in vitro antimicrobial photodynamic therapy protocols to in vivo models, with a particular focus on the hurdles of standardization. The vast diversity in photosensitizers and light parameters across different target cells and models requires a rigorous optimization process.

The effect of photodynamic therapy in head and neck cancer: A comprehensive review of in vivo models
This review evaluates Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) in in vivo head and neck cancer models. PDT effectively generates ROS, reducing tumor growth, cell proliferation and angiogenesis while enhancing survival and immune responses. However, methodological heterogeneity highlights the urgent need for standardized dosimetric protocols to ensure reproducibility

Probing the molecular determinants of emission enhancement in RNA aptamer–metal complex systems
Light up aptamer: fluorophore pairs are widely used in sensing and imaging, with coordination complex fluorophores providing specific benefits due to their long‐lived emission. Here, we examined key structural and electronic features of these metal complexes to identify the requirements for productive engagement with an RNA aptamer.

Overlap between Fe and Zn responsive gene regulatory networks (GRNs) were found, indicative of micronutrient crosstalk, and conservation of root and leaf GRNs and genes suggests strong constraint on homeostasis networks in plants. Abstract Micronutrient stress impacts growth, biomass production, and grain yield in crops.

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.
