Impact of Nutrition on Sphingolipid‐Regulated Physiology: A Review
Sphingolipids (SLs) play a role in multiple, if not all physiological processes. This review summarizes the current knowledge on SLs and their role in (patho‐) physiological processes with special regard to dietary and transgenerational effects. Image was created with BioRender.com.

The Glycocalyx: Barriers and Opportunities at Cell–Cell Encounters
ABSTRACT The glycocalyx, a carbohydrate‐rich, gel‐like layer that coats every mammalian cell, is the first point of contact between cells in tissues. It therefore critically influences these encounters, impacting their mechanical, electrical, and chemical features that ultimately determines the outcome of cell–cell contacts.

Altered Glycosylation of PSA in Prostate Cancer Tissue
ABSTRACT Background The glycosylation of proteins is commonly altered in cancer. This offers novel opportunities for cancer biomarker development. As prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) is a glycoprotein, identification of cancer‐specific PSA‐glycoforms is feasible. Such PSA‐glycoforms may provide valuable diagnostic and prognostic information. Methods PSA‐

Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) offer versatile platforms for enzyme immobilization to overcome their inherent fragility. However, challenges such as restricted conformation and mass transfer limitations remain. Advances in precise MOF design can help overcome these obstacles, expanding their applicability across diverse fields, highlighting the ...

Exploring Siglecs: Potential Modulators of Immune Cells in Food Allergy and Therapeutic Applications
Sialic acid‐binding immunoglobulin‐type lectins (Siglecs) are inhibitory receptors present on all immune cells involved in the allergic reaction. Currently, research is mostly focussed on targeting Siglecs on mast cells to possibly treat food allergies.
