The gut microbiome organ

iMeta, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome can be conceptualized as a distributed organ‐like functional system with spatially structured organization, broad biochemical capacity, and continuous bidirectional communication with the host. By transforming dietary, host‐derived, and environmental substrates into bioactive metabolites with endocrine‐like, immunomodulatory, and ...

Maternal and infant gut microbiome

iMeta, EarlyView.
The maternal–infant continuum involves critical windows of host–microbiota co‐adaptation. Preconception, maternal and paternal microbiomes modulate immunity and reproduction. During pregnancy, a gut–placenta axis emerges, where microbial metabolites influence fetal growth or contribute to complications like gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM ...

Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection: Addressing strategies and future prospects

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Integrated one‐pot CRISPR‐Cas detection significantly simplifies workflows, reduces cross‐contamination risks, and shortens turnaround times, making it highly suitable for point‐of‐care testing (POCT) and resource‐limited settings. Key challenges include system compatibility issues between Cas proteins and isothermal amplification, limited multiplexing

Health Biomarkers of Pesticide Exposure in Rural Populations of Santa Fe, Argentina: Oxidative Stress and Genotoxicity

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to quantify pesticide residues in environmental matrices and plasma and to evaluate their potential effects on oxidative stress and DNA damage in rural populations of Santa Fe province. Soil and rainwater samples were collected, and biological samples and semistructured surveys were obtained from volunteers in three ...

Prenatal depression exposure and infant developmental outcomes: a retrospective cohort study of reduced fetal growth indicators, elevated neonatal heart rate, and developmental trajectories in China

Frontiers in Psychiatry
IntroductionWhile prenatal depression is recognized as a significant public health issue, its specific impacts on fetal development and subsequent infant growth in the first year of life remain insufficiently characterized in Chinese populations.

Toxic Effects of Bisphenol A and Its Analogs on Ovarian Structure and Function: A Narrative Review of Ovary‐Focused Studies

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial chemical found in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins and is recognized for its endocrine‐disrupting properties. Human exposure is common due to its presence in food packaging and everyday products. As BPA use has been restricted, structurally similar compounds such as BPS, BPB, BPAF, and BADGE

Effects of Prenatal Gabapentin Exposure on Fetal Skeletal Development in Rats: Assessment of Bone Development and Ossification

Cyprus Journal of Medical Sciences
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Gabapentin (GBP) is often prescribed to pregnant women to manage neuropathic pain and epilepsy. However, the impact of antiepileptic drugs on prenatal skeletal development remains controversial.

Steroidopathies and hormonal imbalance in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with a multifactorial etiology, many aspects of which remain unclear. Emerging evidence suggests a potential association between ASD and clinical manifestations resulting from hormonal imbalances, henceforth named “steroidopathies.” The present study aims to ...

Prenatal exposure to antihypertensive medication: A systematic review of neurodevelopmental and educational outcomes

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
This systematic review investigated the association of prenatal exposure to antihypertensive medication with longer‐term poor neurodevelopmental outcomes by evaluating the findings from existing literature. We undertook a systematic review of previous studies looking specifically at neurodevelopmental outcomes in children.

Childhood adversity and psychotic‐like experiences in adolescence: Investigating a pathway via disrupted pubertal and grey matter development

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Childhood adversity increases psychosis risk, but the biological mechanisms responsible remain elusive. A possible but underexplored pathway involves altered pubertal and grey matter (GM) development. Methods In youth from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study (N = 3462), we investigated the effect of adversity at age 9 ...
