Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review
Chemical Biology &Drug Design, Volume 107, Issue 5, May 2026.This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...

European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior) as a Functional Keystone Species Shaping Woodland Flora in the UK
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.Ash trees have distinct ecological attributes—their canopy allows a high level of light to penetrate and their foliage decomposes rapidly. Here we used woodland survey data to explore if the prevalence of ash trees has an impact on associated plant communities at a fine spatial scale.

Characterization of the Omnivorous Lygus lineolaris Diet in a Strawberry Field by Metataxonomy
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.This study employs metataxonomy to reveal the extensive omnivorous diet of Lygus lineolaris in a strawberry field, identifying 475 host taxa and confirming active ingestion across plant and prey sources. We introduce a novel coefficient of omnivory, demonstrating the species' strong herbivorous bias while highlighting its dietary flexibility and ...

Polymers and Bioactive Molecules: Wound Dressings Fighting Against Resistant Bacterial Infections
Advances in Polymer Technology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.Disruptions in the skin restoration process can impair wound healing and lead to severe clinical complications, particularly in environments prone to microbial colonization and biofilm formation. Modern wound dressings are, therefore, designed not only to restore tissue integrity but also to actively modulate the wound microenvironment and mitigate ...

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 3, May 2025.Gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) are determining factors in the health of Asian Elephants. The current coproscopic study recorded 95.2% prevalence rates with 19 different GIPs from these animals. The major risk factors could be overlapping niches with domestic and wild animals, irregular medication and the existence of critical stressors. .
