Microbiome‐mediated chemical communication in insects: Implications for pest management
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Microbiome–semiochemical interactions involve the following processes: direct microbial synthesis, host gene regulation, precursor biotransformation, microbiome modulation and indirect ecological signaling. Abstract Insects rely on semiochemicals to regulate aggregation, mating, foraging, and host selection. This review synthesizes evidence that insect‐

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
VIEW, EarlyView.Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Tailoring the volatility and stability of oligopeptides
Journal of Mass Spectrometry, 2017 Amino acids are essential building blocks of life, and fluorinated derivatives have gained interest in chemistry and medicine. Modern mass spectrometry has enabled the study of oligo‐ and polypeptides as isolated entities in the gas phase, but predominantly as singly or even multiply charged species.

Peripheral targets for neuropathic pain
British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.Neuropathic pain represents a significant clinical challenge, with still limited pharmacological approaches to symptomatic relief. This review focuses on molecular targets implicated in neuropathic pain, particularly those involved in peripheral mechanisms. Using the IUPHAR/BPS database of biological targets, their occurrence together with ‘neuropathic
