A Multifunctional Bioactive Nanoscale Coating Deposited by Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Polymerization of Peppermint Essential Oil

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 17, 20 March 2026.
Atmospheric plasma polymerization transforms peppermint essential oil into ultrathin, substrate‐independent bioactive coatings with antioxidant, contact‐active antibacterial, and immunomodulatory functions. The coating disrupts Gram‐negative pathogens, potentiates prophylactic antibiotics, suppresses pro‐inflammatory signaling, and promotes M2 ...

The flavonoid-sensing regulator AefR is involved in modulating quorum sensing through repressing the MexEF-OprN efflux pump in Pseudomonas fluorescens

open access: yesmSystems
Flavonoids, a major component of plant root exudates, play a crucial role in mediating plant-microbe interactions. However, the mechanisms by which flavonoids are perceived and trigger downstream signaling events in microbes remain largely unknown.

And then there were none: decrease of origination and the decline of Conulariida

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Although the evolutionary history of conulariids has been widely studied, previous works have focused mostly on limited time intervals. In this paper, we examine the diversity dynamics of the group throughout its entire history, using various mathematical approaches.

Dysbiosis in the Pathogenesis of Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 388-398, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by epidermal barrier dysfunction and immune dysregulation. Recent research highlights cutaneous dysbiosis as a critical factor in its pathogenesis. In this review, we summarize the interplay between the skin microbiota and host immunity, contrasting the homeostatic ...
