Linoleic Acid Enhances Murine Natural Killer Cell Function In Vitro but Compromises Mitochondrial Bioenergetic Function During Retroviral Infection

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are potent effectors against virus‐infected and tumour cells. During Friend Virus (FV) infection, fatty acid metabolism supports NK‐cell effector functions. Here, we found that NK cells from FV‐infected mice preferentially take up linoleic acid (LA), which reduced proliferation, mitochondrial function, and increased reactive ...

Influence of Fat Oil Binding Capacity on Shelf‐Life and Consumer Acceptance of a Chocolate‐Based Model System

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 103, Issue 10, Page 1179-1193, October 2026.
ABSTRACT In chocolate‐coated products, oil migration can lead to chocolate softening and discoloration, filling hardening, and reduced consumer acceptance. This study examined three fats (soy‐, palm‐, and palm‐kernel (PK) based), crystallized under different conditions (cooling rate and high intensity ultrasound (HIU)) with differing oil binding ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 51, 11 September 2026.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Reconsidering the impact of saturated fat intake on metabolic health: A critical review of evidence and controversies

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 584-603, September 2026.
Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...

Bioactive compounds in insects—Composition, extraction, functionality, food applications, and safety concerns

open access: yesFood Biomacromolecules, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 620-645, September 2026.
This review synthesizes 94 studies (2000–2025) exploring edible insects as sustainable sources of peptides, lipids, and chitin. Utilizing “green” extraction, these bioactives offer antioxidant and antimicrobial benefits for functional foods. However, addressing safety concerns like allergenicity and heavy metals through standardized frameworks remains ...
