Seasonality Affects the Phenolic Composition and Erythroprotective Activity of Ora‐Pro‐Nobis (Pereskia aculeata) Leaves

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Ora‐pro‐nobis (OPN) is a food plant with polyphenol‐rich leaves. However, the influence of seasonality on their quantitative phenolic composition and how it impacts their bioactivities is unknown. OPN leaves were harvested throughout 12 months, and their individual phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and erythroprotection were assessed ...

Environmental Risk Assessment and Anti‐Corrosion Efficacy of Safe‐by‐Design Nitrite‐Based Nanomaterials for Maritime Applications

open access: yesNano Select, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The environmental behavior and impact of anti‐corrosion nanoadditives, ZnAl‐NO2 and MgAl‐NO2 layered double hydroxides (LDH), are assessed under marine conditions. These nanomaterials show instability in water but exhibit no or low toxicity to most tested marine species.

Biliary Glutathione as a Potential Marker for Viability Assessment of Cholangiocytes During Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Livers

open access: yesArtificial Organs, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 241-249, February 2026.
This study identifies biliary glutathione concentration during normothermic machine perfusion as a potential biomarker for biliary viability. Increasing GSH levels correlate with fewer biliary complications post‐transplant, supporting its role in assessing graft quality and improving decision‐making in liver transplantation.

Erythrocyte hemighosts in a patient with tumor lysis syndrome: One train may hide another

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2020
Rasburicase was introduced to treat hyperuricemia secondary to tumor lysis syndrome. Because of severe hemolytic anemia, a blood smear was requested and showed hemighosts, revealing G6PD deficiency.

Across species: A comparative perspective on red cell homeostasis and its influence on our understanding of human physiology and disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, Volume 208, Issue 2, Page 446-458, February 2026.
This review highlights how studies on animal red cells have enriched our understanding of the behaviour of those from humans. A comparative perspective has enhanced our knowledge of human red cell pathophysiology Summary This review emphasises how studies on animal red cells have enriched our understanding of the behaviour of those from humans.

4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 2, Page 251-266, January 2026.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

A Compact Optical Sensor to Self‐Assess Skin Health after Sun Exposure

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
This work presents a portable, low‐cost device capable of detecting changes in the skin associated with excessive sun exposure through reflectance measurements. In vitro validation experiments in skin‐mimicking tissue phantoms showed the device can detect relative pigmentation changes as small as 5%.

Effect of metformin on the bioavailability of nitric oxide in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesОжирение и метаболизм, 2012
The aim of our study was to evaluate the levels of nitrite in plasma and methemoglobin in whole blood using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus receiving metformin.

Subventricular Zone‐on‐a‐Chip: A Model to Study Neurogenesis Disruption in Neonatal Intraventricular Hemorrhage

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.
A human subventricular zone‐on‐a‐chip is developed to model intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) in preterm infants. This platform enables the study of inflammation‐driven neurogenic disruption. Exposure to hemorrhagic cerebrospinal fluid and red blood cell lysate activated inflammatory pathways, with IL1B emerging as a key mediator.
