Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Edulitin 2, a Ribotoxin‐Like Protein From Boletus edulis That Triggers Apoptosis in Colon Cancer Cells While Preserving the Integrity of the Intestinal Microbiota

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Edulitin 2 is a ribotoxin‐like protein exhibiting a potent antiproliferative activity towards Caco‐2 and HT29 cells by programmed cell death. However, edulitin 2 does not affect gut microbiota growth, despite damaging fungal ribosomes. ABSTRACT Porcini (Boletus edulis Bull.) are a reservoir of pharmacological biomolecules with health‐promoting ...

Sensory Assessment of Pressure‐Cooked and Pureed Faba Bean Cultivars: The Contribution of Cotyledon and Seed Coat Constituents Toward the Perception of Sensory Attributes

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Whole beans and cotyledons from three faba bean cultivars, Malik, Fabelle, and Snowbird, were processed into purees through a sequence of soaking, blanching, hot filling, pressure cooking, and blending. Purees prepared from whole beans were centrifuged, and the supernatants were collected. A trained sensory panel evaluated the aroma, flavor, taste, and
