Blue LED Light Attenuates the Bacterial Bioburden in Chronic Wounds Transiently but Dose‐Dependently

Wound Repair and Regeneration, Volume 34, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Phototherapy may improve chronic wound healing through different mechanisms. We have investigated whether escalating doses of blue LED light treatment (λ = 405 nm) impact the chronic wound microbiota. Twenty‐two patients with chronic wounds were sequentially assigned to a low dose (20 J/cm2, n = 7), medium dose (60 J/cm2, n = 8), or high dose (

Global cancer statistics 2024: GLOBOCAN estimates of incidence and mortality worldwide for 34 cancers in 186 countries

CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, Volume 76, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
Abstract This article provides updated global cancer statistics for the year 2024 based on the GLOBOCAN estimates of the International Agency for Research on Cancer. The authors describe national cancer incidence and mortality by world region and the Human Development Index and predict the burden in 2050 based on demographic trends.

Targeting of Staphyloxanthin and α‐Hemolysin by Natural Compound L‐Malic Acid Suppresses Staphylococcus aureus Virulence

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
L‐malic acid, a natural TCA cycle intermediate, attenuates the virulence of Staphylococcus aureus through dual metabolic and regulatory mechanisms. It redirects central carbon flux away from the mevalonate pathway and inhibits the key enzyme CrtO, suppressing staphyloxanthin biosynthesis and impairing bacterial resistance to oxidative stress ...

Dietary interventions in skin ageing: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Journal of Physiological Anthropology
Background Nutrition is a modifiable factor in skin ageing, but its effects remain inconsistently quantified. This meta-analysis assessed human studies from the Web of Science on dietary intake and skin ageing, using pooled standardised mean differences (

Quantifying ornamental carotenoids in male guppies, Poecilia reticulata [PDF]

, 2012
For over 30 years, the orange spots of male guppies have been an iconic example of carotenoid-based ornamentation. The humble guppy was the first of many model species used to study carotenoids in sexual coloration and it is a favoured text book example ...

Measurement of skin carotenoids and their association with diseases: a narrative review

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids
Skin carotenoids are highly correlated with blood carotenoid concentrations and can be measured noninvasively using optical methods. Skin carotenoid levels are widely used in nutritional education as indicators of fruit and vegetable intake; however, research on their use as biomarkers for disease prevention is limited.

Dietary lipid and astaxanthin contents affect the pigmentation of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus)

Food Production, Processing and Nutrition
The most important quality parameter of salmonids is the red color of their skin and muscles. In this contribution, the effects of astaxanthin and dietary lipid content on the pigmentation of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) were studied.
