Beneficial microbes induce resistance in plants (MIR), imposing both lethal and sublethal effects on herbivorous insects. We argue that herbivores surviving MIR carry metabolic and immunological imprints of MIR with cascading effects across food webs. We propose that incorporating such cascading effects will strongly enhance the current MIR research framework.

Intractable implant-associated infections (IAIs) are the primary cause of prosthetic implant failure, particularly in the context of diabetes mellitus. There is an urgent need to design and construct versatile engineered implants integrated with cascade amplification therapeutic modality to significantly improve the treatment of diabetic IAIs. To address this issue, a multi-functional MXene/AgPO@glucose oxidase bio-heterojunction enzyme (M/A@GOx bio-HJzyme) coating is developed, which is decorated with an inert sulfonated polyetheretherketone implant (SP-M/A@G) via hydrothermal treatment and layered deposition.

Segetalin B (SB) has shown promise in mitigating osteoporosis in ovariectomized (OVX) mice, though its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates how SB promotes bone formation through Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) activation in OVX models. In vitro, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) from OVX mice were cultured for osteogenic differentiation.

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare blood disorder which is caused by mutations in phosphatidylinositol glycan class A leading to hemolysis of red blood cells via complement inhibition. The first treatment for PNH, eculizumab, was FDA approved in 2007. Since then, many new treatment options for PNH have arisen.

Regulation of glutamate through glutamate-glutamine cycling is critical for mediating nervous system plasticity. Blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) has been linked to glutamate-dependent excitotoxicity, which may be potentiating chronic disorders such as post-traumatic epilepsy. The purpose of this study was to measure changes in the expression of astrocytic and neuronal proteins responsible for glutamatergic regulation at 4-, 12-, and 24 h in the cortex and hippocampus following single blast exposure in a rat model for bTBI.
