Recent advances in the microbial production of squalene.
, 2022 Squalene is a triterpene hydrocarbon, a biochemical precursor for all steroids in plants and animals. It is a principal com ponent of human surface lipids, in particular of sebum.

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.Abstract Functional foods have gained increasing attention for their capacity to promote health and reduce chronic‐disease risk beyond basic nutrition. Among plant‐based functional ingredients, pumpkin (Cucurbita spp.) and chia (Salvia hispanica L.) seeds are nutrient‐dense sources of proteins, unsaturated fatty acids, dietary fiber, tocopherols ...

Reverse Micelles: The Gateway for Oral (Poly)Peptide Delivery
Small, EarlyView.RM achieve superior oral peptide delivery through high loading capacity, strong lipophilicity, and a low‐hydration microenvironment that protects against enzymatic degradation. Meanwhile, dRM provides favorable permeation‐enhancing interactions and a consistent safety profile, collectively driving enhanced oral performance.

Insect Science, EarlyView.A bacterial‐derived AvPBL gene encoding a pantothenate‐β‐alanine ligase was identified in Amphitetranychus viennensis. RNAi silencing of AvPBL reduced pantothenic acid production, impairing reproduction and diapause induction, while pantothenic acid supplementation rescued these phenotypes.
