Two new 3,4‐seco‐ergostane saponins (1–2) and four known compounds were isolated from Xylaria necrophora. Structures were elucidated via spectroscopy, ECD, and computational NMR. Compound 5 selectively inhibited BV2 microglial cells (IC50 = 17.10 µM), while all compounds showed no antimicrobial activity against tested microorganisms. ABSTRACT Two new 3,

Bioactive peptides in cancer and inflammation: Mechanisms, model systems and clinical translation
Bioactive peptides (BAPs) derived from host, marine, insect, plant and synthetic sources share cationic, amphipathic structures adopting α‐helical, β‐sheet or cyclic conformations. These features underlie anti‐cancer effects, including membrane disruption, apoptosis and cell‐cycle arrest, anti‐metastatic activity, reduced invasion and migration, and ...

Using public fungal occurrence data archived on the Global Biodiversity information facility, and impervious land cover maps from the National Land Cover Database, we were able to demonstrate that impervious cover has a significant influence on the diversity on fungal assemblages. These effects include a reduction in saprotrophic fungal richness, and a

Hypoglycemic Effect of Astaxanthin Oil–Fish Oil Complex in Mice With Type 2 Diabetes
This study demonstrates that an astaxanthin oil–fish oil complex exerts synergistic hypoglycemic and hepatoprotective effects. It enhances glucose metabolism and relieves oxidative stress in insulin‐resistant HepG2 cells. In high‐fat diet mice, the complex reduces hyperglycemia, improves lipid profiles, and attenuates hepatic steatosis and pancreatic ...

In situ degradation of kelp detritus: Implications for coastal carbon cycling
Abstract Marine macroalgae (i.e., seaweeds) are crucial components of coastal carbon cycles and may be important contributors to marine carbon sequestration. Understanding the fate of macroalgal‐derived carbon in marine systems requires an understanding of the degradation dynamics of macroalgae across environmental gradients. Therefore, we conducted an

An endophytic fungus (Daldinia sp.) was isolated from the leaves of Avicennia officinalis collected from mangrove forests of Goa. The ethyl acetate extract of Avicennia officinalis (AO‐EA) of the identified endophyte demonstrated antibacterial and antibiofilm activity against Escherichia coli and Shigella sp.

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.

Abstract The Yamuna River, one of India's most significant river systems and the largest tributary of the Ganges River, serves critical ecological, socio‐economic, and cultural functions. However, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and intensive agriculture have severely degraded its water quality, resulting in extensive pollution with untreated ...
