With no effective drug‐based prevention strategies available for chemotherapy‐induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), research in neuroprotective approaches has grown. Of particular interest is mechanical compression, which may protect nerves by temporarily reducing blood flow during treatment. The authors here conducted a prospective trial in women with

Spinal Anesthesia Failure Following Wasp Envenomation: A Case Series of Two Patients
ABSTRACT Spinal anesthesia is highly effective, and complete failure in healthy patients is rare. Wasp venom contains neuroactive peptides capable of modifying sodium‐channel function and inducing neuroinflammation, but its impact on neuraxial anesthesia has not been previously reported. We describe two healthy ASA I males who developed complete spinal

Bioactive peptides in cancer and inflammation: Mechanisms, model systems and clinical translation
Bioactive peptides (BAPs) derived from host, marine, insect, plant and synthetic sources share cationic, amphipathic structures adopting α‐helical, β‐sheet or cyclic conformations. These features underlie anti‐cancer effects, including membrane disruption, apoptosis and cell‐cycle arrest, anti‐metastatic activity, reduced invasion and migration, and ...

Gut Microbiome Diversity, Functional Potential, and Ecological Relevance of Hottentotta tamulus
Long‐read 16S sequencing uncovers the gut microbiome of H. tamulus. A highly conserved and low‐diversity bacterial community dominates the gut fauna. Bacillus and Mycoplasma lineages emerge as predominant candidate endosymbionts. Exploratory profiles reveal potential sex‐specific trends in microbial abundance.

Evaluating the use of taxonomy in the IUCN Red List
Abstract Taxonomy defines the units that conservationists strive to preserve for future generations. However, the discovery of new species and the taxonomic revision of existing species affect conservation efforts. Despite the importance of taxonomy for a species’ conservation, there is currently no overview of how those leading species extinction risk
