Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2026.
The roles of MAIT cells in health and disease and their therapeutic applications. In healthy individuals, riboflavin metabolites secreted by commensal bacteria at mucosal sites are presented by MR1, leading to the activation of MAIT cells. Activated MAIT cells can maintain the barrier integrity of mucosal tissues in a steady state or migrate to the ...

Capture of long‐missing heme oxygenases that degrade both heme b and heme c

mLife, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 552-567, October 2026.
Abstract Heme serves as a crucial cofactor for hemoproteins and as an iron reservoir; yet, its accumulation is toxic, necessitating efficient degradation pathways. While the catabolism of free heme b is well characterized, the enzymes that disrupt its counterpart covalently tethered to a peptide (heme c) have remained elusive.

High Awareness, Poor Practice: The Cholera Prevention Knowledge‐Attitude‐Practice Gap in Ada Foah, Ghana—A Cross‐Sectional Study

Public Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cholera persists as a public health threat in Ghana, particularly in coastal communities with inadequate water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) infrastructure. This study assessed the knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) toward cholera among residents of Ada Foah, a high‐risk coastal district in Ghana, to identify gaps and inform ...

Simultaneous Quantification of Vibrio metoecus and Vibrio cholerae with Its O1 Serogroup and Toxigenic Subpopulations in Environmental Reservoirs

Pathogens, 2020
Vibrio metoecus is a recently described aquatic bacterium and opportunistic pathogen, closely related to and often coexisting with Vibrio cholerae. To study the relative abundance and population dynamics of both species in aquatic environments of cholera-

Structure‐Guided Engineering of a Ser192Ala Variant Enhances Bidirectional Catalysis in Amycolatopsis sulphurea L‐Alanine Dehydrogenase

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
A rationally engineered Ser192Ala variant of Amycolatopsis sulphurea L‐alanine dehydrogenase (L‐AlaDH) exhibits ∼2‐fold higher catalytic efficiency in both reductive amination and oxidative deamination. Experimental characterization confirms maintained stability under tested conditions, highlighting its potential as an improved biocatalyst for ...
