Exploring Floristic Diversity and Medicinal Plant Uses in Venda, Limpopo, South Africa

Feddes Repertorium, Volume 137, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plants have been an important source of medicine for thousands of years. To better understand the current diversity and usage of medicinal plants, floristic studies are essential. This report documents an expedition conducted in the Venda region of Limpopo, South Africa. The study was carried out in Shanzha and surrounding villages, as well as

Evaluation of Storage Conditions and Pre‐Treatment Methods to Mitigate Aflatoxin Contamination in Commonly Used Chinese Herbal Medicines

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
High temperature and humidity significantly promote aflatoxin contamination in herbal medicines. This research demonstrates that drying, vacuum packaging, and sulfur fumigation are effective strategies to minimize contamination and extend shelf life, whereas UV exposure proves ineffective for decontamination.

Peptide binding at the gasdermin D exosite reveals the structural basis for targeting the site

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 615-625, June 2026.
We describe the first structure of gasdermin D with a putative caspase inhibitor peptide analog at 1.6 Å resolution. This work suggests potential druggability of gasdermin D at the exosite by leveraging structure‐based computational design with biochemical characterization.Gasdermin D (GSDMD) has been identified as a critical component of the ...

Broad‐Scale Climatic Gradients Drive Multiple Facets of Scorpion Beta Diversity in Northeastern Brazil

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Beta diversity analyses clarify mechanisms structuring ecological communities, but their multidimensional facets remain poorly explored in arthropods. Here, we quantified taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional beta diversity in scorpions, partitioned these facets into species replacement and richness differences, and evaluated the ...
