Article reviews recent evidence that protein–protein interactions in each of the three major phases of oil formation appear to have profound effects on specialized oil accumulation. This article is part of the special issue: Physiology and metabolism (2022).

This article presents research to sequence the transcriptome of H. vastatrix race XXXIII to obtain a database for use as a reference in studies of the interaction between the fungus and coffee. In addition, the authors aim to identify differentially expressed genes that have the potential to act as effector proteins during the interaction.

Article performing and analyzing two-layer high-throughput calculations.

Article presenting results from a study where a new gold(I)-vinylimidazolate CTC, 1, was prepared and the formation of highly emissive sandwich adducts with the soft metal cations Cu+, Ag+, and Tl+, 2–4, respectively, was investigated.

Article presenting research that obtained a new Au(I) CTC bearing the 1-vinylimidazolate ligand and furthered the controllable synthetic pathway to afford heterometallic sandwich-like clusters.

This article presents a study with the purpose to deliver a Notch Intracellular Domain (NICD)-encoded plasmid via poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles and to investigate the toxic environmental side effects for an in vivo experiment. This research demonstrates that PLGA nanoparticle-mediated target delivery to upregulate Notch related genes can be a potential therapeutic approach with minimum toxic effects.

Article uses acid-resistant metal-organic framework nanoparticles (UiO-68-NH2) to encapsulate sufficient insulin and decorated the exterior with targeting proteins (transferrin) to realize highly efficient oral insulin delivery.

Article using first-principles simulations to predict room temperature ferroelectricity in a representative of the formate family, [NH₂NH₃][Co(HCOO)₃].

Article presents a systematic review examining the scientific evidence on the effect of environmental toxicants, air pollutants and endocrine disruptors (EDCs), on compositional and diversity of human microbiota.

Article discusses the authors' investigation the hypothesis that exposure to inhaled diesel exhaust particles alters the gut microbiome and promotes microbial-related inflammation and cardiovascular disease biomarkers. To determine whether probiotics could prevent diet or DEP exposure mediated alterations in the gut microbiome or systemic outcomes, a subset of animals on the HF diet were treated orally with 0.3 g/day (~ 7.5 × 108 CFU/day) of Winclove Ecologic® Barrier probiotics throughout the study.
