The Emerging Role of Microbial Extracellular Vesicles in Neuroinflammation and Neurodegeneration
ABSTRACT Neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders are increasingly viewed as systemic conditions shaped by interactions among peripheral immunity, microbiota, and the central nervous system. However, the mechanisms linking microbial activity to neuroinflammation and neurodegeneration remain poorly defined.

Induction of Broad-Spectrum Protective Immunity against Disparate Cryptococcus Serotypes
Cryptococcosis is a fungal disease caused by multiple Cryptococcus serotypes; particularly C. neoformans (serotypes A and D) and C. gattii (serotypes B and C). To date, there is no clinically available vaccine to prevent cryptococcosis.

The Hemoprotein Hhy1 Promotes Heme‐Dependent Catalase Activity of Ctt1
A Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain deficient in heme (hem1Δ) and siderophore (Fc) biosynthesis, as well as high‐affinity iron (Fe) uptake (blue), was used to uncover the hemoprotein Hhy1 that promotes the heme‐dependent activity of the catalase Ctt1. In contrast, hhy1Δ cells exhibit reduced Ctt1 activity and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress ...

Ethanolic extracts from leaves, stems, and roots of Schinus weinmanniifolia Mart. ex Engl. were evaluated for phytochemical composition and biological activities. The extracts exhibited antioxidant, photoprotective, and antimicrobial activity, without hemolytic effects or cytotoxicity at active concentrations. Syringic acid, epicatechin, and rutin were

Utilizing anacardic acid derived from cashew nut shell liquid, the synthesis of isochromans was accomplished. Two key steps were exploited. Firstly, a benzylic bromination in the green solvent tert‐butyl acetate is disclosed. Secondly, as an example, the exposure of the secondary alcohol 1‐(2‐methoxy‐6‐(pentadec‐1‐en‐1‐yl)phenyl)ethanol to potassium t ...

ABSTRACT Guillain‐Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare, immune‐mediated neurological disorder that can be challenging to diagnose in postoperative patients due to atypical manifestations and overlapping conditions. This case report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges of GBS following vascular surgery. We present the case of a 56‐year‐old man
