A Highly Conserved SNARE‐Associated Protein Enhances Plant Immunity by Regulating Vesicle Trafficking

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 3426-3440, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The plant endomembrane system and vesicle trafficking are central to plant immunity, mediating the targeted delivery and recycling of defence molecules during pathogen attack. Here, we investigated the functional role of soybean Vacuole Membrane Protein 1 (GmVMP1) in mediating resistance against soybean cyst nematode (SCN, Heterodera glycines).

Cocoa Attenuates Gluten‐induced Pathogenesis in a Preclinical Model of Celiac Disease

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 70, Issue 8, 27 April 2026.
Cocoa intake exerts a protective effect against key hallmarks of CeD, attenuating inflammation and limiting the damage to the intestinal structure. ABSTRACT Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune‐mediated disorder triggered by gluten ingestion. Strict adherence to a gluten‐free diet (GFD) is currently the only available treatment, yet it presents ...
