Cyclotides are a diverse class of plant-derived cyclic, disulfide-rich peptides with a unique cyclic cystine knot topology. Their remarkable structural stability and resistance to proteolytic degradation can lead to improved pharmacokinetics and oral activity as well as selectivity and high enzymatic stability. Thus, cyclotides have emerged as powerful scaffold molecules for designing peptide-based therapeutics.

Rhodesgrass mealybug, Antonina graminis Maskell (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae), is an emerging pest of turfgrass in Georgia golf course putting greens. Because the feeding damage of A. graminis severely affects the aesthetics of the putting surface, it is necessary to understand the phenology of A.

Research on eusocial bee species like Bombus terrestris is primarily focused on the worker caste, which is why their morphology and anatomy are already well described. This includes the alimentary tract, which is adapted for feeding on nectar and pollen. Located at the transition between crop and ventriculus is a highly specialised compartment, the proventriculus.

In this paper, we present a novel on-demand modular robotic photoacoustic tomography (PAT) probe integrated into an endoscopic device, potentially for deep intragastric sensing. The proposed solution offers a plug-and-play approach through the use of meso-scale steerable endoscopy and a new 'snap-on' 3D robotic PAT probe that can reconfigure the geometry of the intracorporeal light delivery, inspired by an umbrella structure. Specifically, using the limited esophageal access, steerable endoscopy allows navigation and advancement of a distally mounted robotic add-on for PAT that is folded until it reaches the deep-seated gastric lesion.
