Antioxidant Chemistry of Phenolics in Chinese Herbal Medicines: A Holism‐Based Review

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 9, September 2026.
Phenolic antioxidants in CHMs mainly include chalcone, stilbene, flavonoid, xanthone, and Diels–Alder‐type adducts. They undergo direct and indirect pathways to exert antioxidant action. The indirect pathway is transition metal‐chelating, while the direct pathway comprises several redox‐based reactions (e.g., SET and HAT) and RAF reactions.

Mechanistic Insights Into the Association Between Gut Microbiota Diversity and Atherosclerosis, Acute Coronary Syndrome, and Peripheral Arterial Disease Progression

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 9, September 2026.
Proposed gut‐vascular framework linking microbial ecology to atherosclerotic disease. Diet and related exposures shape dysbiosis or microbial resilience; resulting changes in SCFAs, TMAO, bile acids, and LPS may modulate endothelial function, immune activation, and platelet activity, contributing to atherosclerosis, ACS, and PAD.

Groundnut Improvement for Aflatoxin Resistance: Progress and Opportunities

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundnut, or peanut, is an industrial oilseed crop that serves the food and feed industries and provides income along the value chain. Pre‐ and post‐harvest aflatoxin contamination, caused by Aspergillus spp., hinders the food and feed value and market opportunities of groundnut products. Developing and deploying aflatoxin‐resistant varieties
