Lanosterol Synthase Pathway Alleviates Lens Opacity in Age-Related Cortical Cataract
Purpose. Lanosterol synthase (LSS) abnormity contributes to lens opacity in rats, mice, dogs, and human congenital cataract development. This study examined whether LSS pathway has a role in different subtypes of age-related cataract (ARC). Methods.

Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability
Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Twin natural products. This manuscript describes a concise biomimetic synthesis of twin abeo‐steroids bufogargarizins A and B with an unusual [7.5.6.5] and [5.7.6.5] skeletons in 19 steps (LLS). The described synthetic approach features the application of a bioinspired regiodivergent intramolecular aldol addition reaction and a selective singlet oxygen‐
