Plant‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles: Biogenesis, Function, and Application in Cancer Immunotherapy
This illustration shows the biogenesis pathways of edible and medicinal plant‐derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) and their therapeutic effects following uptake in the human body, highlighting their potential for application in cancer immunotherapy. ABSTRACT Plant‐derived extracellular vesicles (PDEVs) are nanoscale, lipid bilayer‐enclosed vesicles ...

Social Sustainability in Circular Bioeconomy Business Models: Insights From Argentina
ABSTRACT Research on circular bioeconomy business models (CBEBM) has largely prioritised environmental and economic aspects, leaving out the social pillar. To address this gap, this paper analyses to what extent and in what ways social sustainability is integrated into CBEBM, based on 12 cases from northern Argentina, a region with high potential for ...

ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

ABSTRACT Introduction Allergic rhinitis (AR) and non‐allergic rhinitis (NAR) share overlapping symptoms but differ in pathophysiology and treatment. Current AR diagnosis relies on skin prick testing (SPT) and serum IgE quantification, both of which are complex.

Algal-fungal mutualism: cell recognition and maintenance of the symbiotic status of lichens
Lichens are specific symbiotic associations between photosynthetic algae or cyanobacteria and heterotrophic fungi forming a double entity in which both components coexist. Specificity required for the lichen establishment can be defined in this context as the preferential, but not exclusive, association of a biont with another, since the algal factor ...

To explore the yeast diversity associated with Brazilian stingless bees, we collected samples from bees and their provisions. Sympatric bee species harbor distinct yeast communities, providing insights into bees' foraging choices. Moreover, these communities are dominated by specific taxa with similar metabolic profiles.

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Understanding whether land use intensification causes regime shifts (i.e. persistent, large changes in ecosystem states) is of key importance for management, particularly if these shifts occur abruptly as thresholds in land use intensity are crossed.

Plant‐derived compounds to improve soil inoculation for restoration
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Restoring the soil microbiome is increasingly recognized as an important requirement for the success of ecosystem restoration. Soil inoculation can reintroduce the missing taxa, but its application is limited by the large amount of donor soil that is needed and by the ...

Using novel approaches of Hill‐number based and coverage‐standardized dissimilarity metrics and community‐weighted traits, we show that tiger moth communities exhibit various traits prone to land‐use intensity and undergo a complex and non‐linear response to tropical rainforest recovery, corroborating recent findings on biotic differentiation (Keck et ...
