It was imperative to discover and utilize high-efficiency, non-toxic substances for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its associated complications, given the escalating prevalence and significant global health burden. In the present study, the acetylated Ganoderma applanatum polysaccharide (A-GAP) was successfully obtained and characterized, demonstrating excellent efficacy in ameliorating organ damage induced by T2DM through targeted modulation of the gut-liver axis. The physiological and molecular biological findings indicated that A-GAP may modulate the Nrf2/Keap1-TLR4/NFκB-Bax/Bcl-2 signaling pathway network, thereby mitigating oxidative stress and the subsequent inflammatory response, ultimately alleviating the inhibitory effects of IRS and insulin resistance.

Inflammatory skin diseases comprise a group of skin conditions characterized by damage to skin function due to overactive immune responses. These disorders not only impair the barrier function of the skin but also deteriorate the quality of life and increase the risk of psychiatric issues. Here, a low-modulus phosphatidylserine-exposing microvesicle (deformed PSV, D-PSV) was produced, characterized, and evaluated for its potential therapeutic function against skin diseases.

Host defense antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising lead molecules with which to develop antibiotics against drug-resistant bacterial pathogens. Thanatin, an inducible antimicrobial peptide involved in the host defense of insects, is gaining considerable attention in the generation of novel classes of antibiotics. Thanatin or thanatin-based analog peptides are extremely potent in killing bacterial pathogens in the Enterobacteriaceae family, including drug-resistant strains of and .

Six new triterpenoids, heritieras C-H (-), along with thirteen known triterpenoids (-), were isolated from the leaves of . Their structures were identified by spectroscopic analysis, including 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HRESIMS), and by comparison with the literature. Anti-inflammatory activity of the isolates was evaluated using the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated RAW 264.
