Insect‐Derived Bioactives for Glycemic Control and Gut Health: A Review

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
Insect‐derived bioactive compounds (e.g., peptides, polysaccharides) effectively regulate blood glucose through dual mechanisms: directly inhibiting carbohydrate‐digesting enzymes and glucose transporters, and indirectly modulating gut microbiota to enhance intestinal barrier integrity.

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Sexual reproduction of human fungal pathogens [PDF]

, 2014
We review here recent advances in our understanding of sexual reproduction in fungal pathogens that commonly infect humans, including Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans/gattii, and Aspergillus fumigatus. Where appropriate or relevant, we introduce

Detection of Fungal Translocation in Patients With Alcohol Use Disorder Using a Real‐Time PCR Assay

APMIS, Volume 134, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Gut microbiota plays a key role in triggering various diseases. However, translocation studies focus on bacteria, neglecting fungal elements, while fungi seem also involved in triggering various diseases. Aim of this study was to assess whether fungal elements were able to translocate in patients with AUD (alcohol use disorder) and to verify ...

Genomic epidemiology of Cryptococcus yeasts identifies adaptation to environmental niches underpinning infection across an African HIV/AIDS cohort. [PDF]

, 2016
Emerging infections caused by fungi have become a widely recognized global phenomenon and are causing an increasing burden of disease. Genomic techniques are providing new insights into the structure of fungal populations, revealing hitherto undescribed ...

Activity Against Pythium insidiosum and Isolated Constituents of Cordia insignis Roots

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study investigates the roots of Cordia insignis in search of novel treatments for pythiosis, caused by the oomycete Pythium insidiosum. Seven compounds are isolated, including steroids, a saponin, a coumarin, a fatty acid, and a glycoside, the latter two are reported for the first time in the genus.
