Antimicrobial Peptides and Peptidomimetics in Foods – A Synthetic Foray
This Review discusses AMPs in foods and their syntheses. It espouses facile methods to make them accessible and suggests their utility in the mitigation and eradication of the burgeoning maladies of antimicrobial and multidrug resistance (AMR and MDR).

A series of N‐acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc)‐based electrophilic inhibitors targeting Ape esterase was synthesized. Their inhibitory potency ranged from micromolar to submillimolar. The study probed binding contributions of stem peptide extension, replacing the anomeric methyl group with a benzyl, and α‐fluorination of the carbonyl to enhance ...

Although sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) are recommended for patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), concerns regarding urogenital infections persist. Therefore, we evaluated the risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) and genital tract infection (GTI) after SGLT2i initiation in this population ...

Advancing Pregnancy and Pediatric Science through the NIH Transporter Elucidation Network
Human gestation is characterized by dynamic changes in maternal physiology and maturation of tissue functions before and after birth. The fetus and neonate are highly dependent upon transfer of maternal nutrients via the placenta and lactating mammary gland, which frequently involve selective membrane transporter proteins.
