Immunomodulatory and Cytotoxic Properties of Enniatin B1 in Porcine Alveolar Macrophages

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 9, Page 3220-3231, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the immunomodulatory effects of Enniatin B1 (ENNB1), an emerging mycotoxin, on porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs), a species‐specific model relevant to human innate immunity. PAMs were exposed to increasing ENNB1 concentrations (0.5–6 μM) over 6, 24, and 48 h.

Investigation of Aspergillus flavus Infection and Aflatoxin Accumulation in Pulses During Growth and Development

Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aflatoxins (AFL) are mycotoxins produced by Aspergillus flavus that pose major risks to food safety. This study evaluated fungal growth and AFL production in planta across the following five pulse species: chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.), lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.), peas (Pisum sativum L.), soybeans (Glycine max L.), and with corn (Zea ...

Evaluating the combined toxicity of Penicillium mycotoxins in absorption, metabolism, and excretion systems

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6523-6534, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Penicillium mycotoxins, including ochratoxin A (OTA), citrinin (CIT), and cyclopiazonic acid (CPZ), frequently co‐occur in food commodities, contributing to chronic low‐level dietary exposure. However, current risk assessments often consider these toxins individually, overlooking potential interaction effects.

The use of edible insects in human food

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5775-5787, 15 August 2026.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...

Preharvest application of antagonistic yeasts for the control of fungal pathogens in organic peach and plum orchards

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 10, Page 5881-5889, 15 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The control of fungal diseases in organic fruit production remains a major challenge due to the limited availability of authorized phytosanitary tools. This study evaluates the efficacy of two antagonistic yeasts – Metschnikowia pulcherrima L672 and Hanseniaspora uvarum L793 – in organic peach ( Prunus persica ) and plum ( Prunus ...

Therapeutic Applications of Stimuli‐Based Release and Engineering of Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.
This review summarizes the effects of endogenous and exogenous stimuli, their effects on the natural release of extracellular vesicles, as well as their uptake and release. It also gives an overview of stimuli‐responsive EVs and their therapeutic applications. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), nano‐ to microsized lipid bilayer membrane‐bound particles, are

The Endocrine Disrupting Compounds Bisphenol‐A and α‐Zeranol Mimic the Estrogen Transcriptional Program to Promote Proliferation and Stemness in Breast Cancer Cells

Molecular Carcinogenesis, Volume 65, Issue 8, Page 907-920, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Excessive activation of the estrogen receptor (ER) drives proliferation, progression, and the formation of breast cancer stem cells (CSCs) in ER‐positive breast cancer. Estrogenic endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) found in plastics, water, and food are also able to bind to the ER.

The Benzoylation of the Splicing Factor Skip Is Critical for Development, Oxidative Stress Response and Pathogenicity in Aspergillus flavus

Toxins
Alternative splicing of pre-mRNA is a crucial mechanism in gene expression regulation. As a core component of the spliceosome, the biological function of the Skip protein in Aspergillus flavus remains unknown.
