Honey bees extract sticky material from the exudates of different plants which transform afterwards to propolis. Propolis from several global locations has been shown to contain a wide variety of polyphenolic chemicals. Recent studies have revealed that propolis possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory abilities. In laboratory animal studies, it has been demonstrated that propolis can enhance the functioning of the antioxidant defense system and decrease the activity of nuclear factor-kappa B. As a result, they can effectively alleviate the damage caused by exercise. One of the main flavonoids found in propolis, quercetin, has been demonstrated to enhance muscle mitochondrial biogenesis and exercise capacity. Propolis may aid athletes in preventing oxidative and inflammatory damage to their muscles during exercise and enhance their athletic performance. The goal of the current review was to evaluate how propolis consumption affected the molecular signaling associated with antioxidant/oxidant state, pro/anti-inflammatory cytokines, and anaerobic/aerobic endurance.

Insect metamorphosis is a complex developmental process regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs) and hormonal signaling pathways. Key genes driving insect ontogenic changes are precisely modulated by miRNAs, which interact with 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and juvenile hormone (JH) to coordinate developmental transitions. Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in understanding miRNA biogenesis, their regulatory roles in gene expression, and their involvement in critical biological processes, including metamorphosis and chitin metabolism.

Early and precise diagnosis of cancer is pivotal for effective therapeutic intervention. Traditional diagnostic methods, despite their reliability, often face limitations such as invasiveness, high costs, labor-intensive procedures, extended processing times, and reduced sensitivity for early-stage detection. Electrochemical biosensing is a revolutionary method that provides rapid, cost-effective, and highly sensitive detection of cancer biomarkers.

Intracellular calcium signaling is a cornerstone in cell biology and a key molecular target for human health and disease. Calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase kinases, CAMKK1 and CAMKK2 are serine/threonine kinases that contribute to the regulation of intracellular calcium signals in response to diverse stimuli. CAMKK1 generally has stable dynamics, whereas CAMKK2 dysregulation triggers oncogenicity and neurological disorders.

Flexible bioelectronic interfaces with adhesive properties are essential for advancing modern medicine and human-machine interactions. However, achieving both stable adhesion and non-damaging detachment remains a significant challenge. In this study, a lithium bond-mediated molecular cascade hydrogel (LMCH) for bioelectronic interfaces is designed, which facilitates robust adhesion at the tissue level and permits atraumatic detachment for repositioning as required.

Mammalian sexual reproduction critically relies on the generation of haploid gametes following a specialized cell division process known as meiosis. Here, we demonstrate that N-6 Adenine-Specific DNA methyltransferase 1 (N6AMT1) plays a crucial role in the progression of meiosis during spermatogenesis, as follows. N6AMT1 was expressed in germ cells throughout the entire process of spermatogenesis, with a peak in mRNA levels in spermatocytes at the prophase I stage of meiosis.
