The HAK/KUP/KT (High-affinity K transporters/K uptake permeases/K transporters) is the largest and most dominant potassium transporter family in plants, playing a crucial role in various biological processes. However, our understanding of HAK/KUP/KT gene family in potato ( L.) remains limited and unclear.

Background: Avocado intake has been associated with improvements in diet quality. Whether this response is because of avocado intake, , or combined with a food and/or nutrient displacement (D) has yet to be determined.
Objectives: This secondary analysis, conducted using dietary data from the Habitual Diet and Avocado Trial, sought to assess the effect of consuming a large avocado (168 g, 281 kcal) daily in the avocado-supplemented diet (AD) group compared with the habitual diet (HD) group on food and nutrient D.

The management of acid-based disorders was transformed in the 1980s with the advent of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which target the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (proton pump) of the parietal cell. Potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs), a newer class of medications, act at the same proton pump through a novel mechanism resulting in profound and sustained acid suppression. Although trials in Asian populations over the past decades have highlighted the potential benefit of P-CABs, clinical trials in Western populations have been initiated more recently.

Manganese dioxide (MnO), lauded for its biocompatibility and distinctive optical and physical characteristics, has become an indispensable material in the biomedical field, showing immense potential in disease detection, treatment, and prevention. Particularly, the ability of MnO nanoparticles to oxidize glutathione (GSH) to its oxidized form has positioned them as pivotal players in GSH sensing. However, conventional preparation methods, whether top-down or bottom-up, often result in nanoparticles that require multi-step processing and modification to achieve good dispersion in physiological conditions, which is both time-consuming and complex.
