Macadamia () is endemic to eastern Australia and produces an edible nut that is widely cultivated in commercial orchards globally. A survey of fungi associated with the grey and green mold symptoms of macadamia flowers found mostly species of (Sclerotiniaceae, Leotiomycetes) and (Cladosporiaceae, Dothideomycetes). These isolates included , , and unidentified isolates. Amongst the unidentified isolates, one novel species of and three novel species of were delimited and characterized by molecular phylogenetic analyses. The new species are , , , and .

Clinical endpoints caused by hyperlipoproteinemia include atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and acute pancreatitis. Emerging lipid-lowering therapies targeting proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9), lipoprotein(a), apolipoprotein C-III, and angiopoietin-like protein 3 represent promising advances in the management of patients with hyperlipoproteinemia. These therapies offer novel approaches for lowering pathogenic lipid and lipoprotein species, particularly in patients with serious perturbations who are not adequately controlled with conventional treatments or who are unable to tolerate them.

Age-related dopamine (DA) neuron loss is a primary feature of Parkinson's disease. However, whether similar biological processes occur during healthy aging, but to a lesser degree, remains unclear. We therefore determined whether midbrain DA neurons degenerate during aging in mice and humans.

Polysaccharides are recognized for their extensive biological functions, holding significant promise for applications in both medicine and food industries. However, their utilization is frequently constrained by challenges such as high molecular weights and indistinct sugar chain structures. Recently, two novel bacterial strains, N6 and J3, were isolated from the Nakdong River in Korea.

Background And Objectives: Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a complex condition that necessitates the development of novel therapeutic strategies. The objective of this study was to investigate the therapeutic potential of Fuzi decoction (FZD) in the treatment of IVDD by examining its bioactive components, target genes, molecular interactions, pathways, and therapeutic efficacy.
Methods: Bioactive ingredients with an oral bioavailability (OB) of ≥ 30 % and drug likeness (DL) of ≥ 0.

Microwave dynamic therapy (MWDT) destroy tumor cells using reactive oxygen species (ROS), but its effectiveness is limited by low ROS production and intracellular oxygen (O) availability. This study presents a novel strategy using manganese (II) ion (Mn) doped iron (Fe)-based metal-organic framework (Fe MOF) nanoparticles (NPs) to enhance both O generation and ROS production for improved MWDT. Incorporating Mn into Fe MOF narrows the bandgap from 0.
