Illuminating point‐of‐care diagnostics with aggregation‐induced emission biosensors

FlexMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the application of aggregation‐induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) in point‐of‐care (POC) diagnostics for disease biomarker detection. It systematically examines a range of biosensing platforms, including lateral flow immunoassays, microfluidic chips, and electrochemiluminescence sensors, alongside their utility in detecting ...

Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Extracellular vesicles derived from edible plants and edible fungi: Compositional characteristics, engineering strategies and biofunctions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Non‐animal extracellular vesicles as bioactive‐compound carriers: compositional characteristics, engineering strategies, and biofunctions. Abstract Animal‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) were widely used for bioactive compound delivery but constrained by complex origins, potential immunogenicity, and pathogen contamination.

Interactions between lactobacillus and yeast: A recent update

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Abstract Lactobacillus and yeast are microorganisms widely distributed in nature. Their interactions significantly impact fermentation processes, human health, and medical care. However, there is a lack of a systematic summary of the characteristics of these interactions, and the mechanisms underlying these interactions remain unclear.

Guidelines for Immunomodulatory Assays of Food Bioactives on Drosophila melanogaster Model

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Guidelines are proposed for evaluating the immunomodulatory effects of food bioactives in Drosophila melanogaster, involving treatment with bioactives, pathogen preparation, infection routes, and immune response assessment. This model highlights the conserved mechanisms of cellular and humoral immunity for studying host‐microbe interactions.

Physicochemical, Functional, and Health‐Promoting Properties of Processed Nettle (Urtica Dioica) Leaves: A Review

Future Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.) leaves are a nutrient‐dense source of proteins, dietary fiber, chlorophylls, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds. Processing technologies enable the production of powders and extracts for incorporation into bakery, beverage, dairy, and nutraceutical products; however, challenges remain regarding sensory quality ...

Oral Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles as Systemic Messengers: A Mouth–Gut–Systemic Axis Paradigm

Gut Medicine, EarlyView.
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 ...
