Extracellular vesicles in pharmacology: Innovations in drug delivery and therapeutic applications in cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a diverse population of membrane nanoparticles secreted by nearly all cell types, playing a key role in intercellular communication by transferring bioactive macromolecular cargo. In cancer, EVs shape both the local tumour microenvironment and distant premetastatic niches.

Plant Part–Specific Differences in Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): A Comparative Evaluation of Root and Leaf Evidence for Safety and Regulation

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
This review contrasts the root and leaf of Withania somnifera (ashwagandha) across phytochemistry, clinical evidence, and regulatory context. Root preparations are dominated by withanolide A, D, and glyco‐withanolides, with multiple randomized controlled trials supporting reductions in stress, anxiety, and insomnia alongside a favorable safety profile.

Unveiling the Diagnostic Value and Potential Therapeutic Targets of Phenylalanine Metabolism in Pancreatic Cancer via Integrated Multi‐Omics and Machine Learning

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 18, 30 September 2026.
MR identified phenylalanine as a causal PC risk factor (OR 1.18). A 5‐gene RF model (AUC 0.955) highlighted SLC6A14 as the top biomarker. Single‐cell analysis revealed epithelial–immune crosstalk. Molecular docking identified genistein (−9.1 kcal/mol) as a lead SLC6A14‐targeting compound.
