Transcriptomic Profiling of SLC and ABC Transporters in the Human Term Placenta
Solute carriers (SLC) and ATP‐binding cassette (ABC) transporters are essential for placental solute exchange and fetal protection, yet their transcriptomic profiles in the human placenta remain poorly characterized. Although fetal sex influences placental development and function, its impact on transporter expression is unclear.

Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Dietary UV filter EHMC induces hepatic steatosis in HepaRG cells at noncytotoxic concentrations. Mechanistically, EHMC binds nuclear receptors (LXRα, PPARα), upregulating SREBP‐1 to accelerate fatty acid synthesis. These findings highlight the potential metabolic toxicity of widespread EHMC exposure through food sources.

Withania somnifera seed extract and powder improved metabolic parameters in rats, particularly at higher extract doses, without evident hepatic, renal, hematological, or histopathological toxicity. Molecular docking further predicted strong DPP‐4 inhibitory potential of withanone, supporting the antidiabetic potential of W. somnifera seeds.

Oral Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles as Systemic Messengers: A Mouth–Gut–Systemic Axis Paradigm
ABSTRACT Oral microbiome dysbiosis not only associated with localized periodontal disease but also with multiple systemic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and cancer. However, the efficiency with which intact viable bacteria cross biological barriers to reach distant organs is ...
