Extraction of Antimicrobial Peptides From Fava Bean Protein Hydrolyzate by Phosphorylated Biochar

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides were extracted by functional biochar in one step. The enriched peptides demonstrated significantly enhanced antibacterial activity. ABSTRACT The extraction of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from plant proteins remains challenging due to their low abundance, structural diversity, and the need for mild, efficient, and selective ...

Plasma Proteomic Profiling Identifies Candidate Biomarkers for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Using DIA‐based plasma proteomics followed by ELISA validation, we identified eight circulating proteins that were significantly elevated in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. These proteins reflect key tumor‐associated biological processes, including exocrine dysfunction and immune remodeling, and may serve as candidates for future multi ...

Occupational Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) against Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Infection in a Health District in Cameroon: Assessment of the Knowledge and Practices of Nurses

PLoS ONE, 2015
Background Health care providers are at risk of acquiring human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection from occupational exposure, with nurses being the most vulnerable. There is no data on the awareness of post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) among nurses in

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all
