A Journey Between Science and the Arts: Templates for the Depiction of the Pineapple (Sixteenth to Eighteenth Centuries)

Renaissance Studies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Native to America, the pineapple—Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.—delighted the Europeans who came across it. The fruit was mentioned by the voyagers and missionaries who observed and tasted it in the Americas and, from the 1500s onwards, infused reports, chronicles and natural history treatises with colour and flavour.

Protective effect of cannabinoid type 2 receptor agonist (JWH‐133) against hepatotoxicity induced by Prangos ferulacea Lindl. extract

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated Prangos ferulacea (PF)‐induced hepatotoxicity, its potential association with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and proinflammatory cytokines, and the effect of the cannabinoid type 2 receptor agonist JWH‐133. Rats (n = 37) were divided into four groups: control–sham group (CSG, n = 9), PF extract group (PG, n = 9), PF ...

Dynamic Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering Platform With Multiscale Nanostructural Engineering and Programmable Surface Energy for Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Discrimination of Helicobacter pylori

Advanced Oncology, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
This study develops a dynamic surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (D‐SERS) platform integrating multiscale nanoparticle geometry, quantum dot coupling, surface‐energy programming, and a multilayer perceptron model for AI‐assisted classification. It enables ultrahigh sensitivity, noninvasive detection, and specific Helicobacter pylori identification.
