Immune Consequences of Metabolic Syndrome and Its Treatment: A Cytokine Perspective

Immunology, Volume 179, Issue 3, Page 390-405, November 2026.
Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from individuals with metabolic syndrome (MetS) who were not using glucose‐and/or lipid lowering medication (GLLM) exhibited a broader cytokine production profile after in vitro antigen‐specific stimulation than PBMCs from individuals with MetS using such medications and from healthy donors.

From Dysbiosis to Disease: How Vaginal Microbiota Shape Group B Streptococcus Pathogenesis

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Lactobacillus crispatus plays a critical role in the vaginal microbiome. Limiting glucose shifts metabolism toward HMO consumption and amino acid metabolism. These actions enable alkali production and competition. Homeostasis, characterized by dense Lactobacilli colonization and suppression of pathogens, provides resistance to dysbiosis.

Assessment of the Binding Affinity of Covalent Inhibitors of Cruzain and Cathepsin L Using Relative Binding Free Energy

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 19, 14 October 2026.
Six nitrile‐based covalent inhibitors are evaluated against cruzain and hCatL. Thermodynamic integration accurately predicts relative binding affinities by modeling the covalent adduct state. We identify a structural difference in the S2 subsite that governs ligand selectivity, offering valuable insights for drug discovery.

Targeting Amastigote and Trypomastigote Phases: Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Strategy Against Trypanosoma cruzi

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, Volume 73, Issue 5, Page 2457-2481, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (
