Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Background Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the progressive destruction of melanocytes, resulting in depigmented skin macules. While traditionally viewed as a cutaneous disorder driven by a specific CD8+ T cell‐mediated interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) signature, emerging research suggests that vitiligo may be a systemic condition

The Biological Roles of Class II Hydrophobins at the Cell Wall of Filamentous Ascomycetes
Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT One of the most elusive aspects of fungal cell wall biology has been dilucidating the specific functions of most cell wall proteins. Class II hydrophobins are small amphipathic proteins produced exclusively by filamentous ascomycetes. A comparative synthesis of their biological functions across species has been lacking for this specific group ...

Application of Omics Technologies for Cowpea Improvement
Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 5, October 2026.ABSTRACT Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) is a vital crop for food security, nutrition, and climate resilience in sub‐Saharan African and other semi‐arid regions. However, its improvement is constrained by the complexity of polygenic traits such as drought tolerance, pest resistance, and seed quality.
