| |  | | Researchers used stable isotope and proteomic analyses on medieval European skeletons to uncover the details of ancient diets. The findings revealed a heavy reliance on C3 plants, terrestrial animal proteins, legumes, and freshwater fish, demonstrating the power of combining methods for paleodietary reconstruction. | | | | Tridecanoic acid (C13) is a rare, odd-chain saturated fatty acid produced mainly by gut and rumen microbes, entering metabolic pathways via β-oxidation to support gluconeogenesis and the TCA cycle. Although scarcely detected in plasma, emerging research suggests C13 could serve as a sensitive biomarker for diet-microbiome interactions and may have distinct metabolic and anti-inflammatory effects. | | | | Researchers discovered that mitochondria-rich extracellular vesicles (Ti-mitoEVs) from skeletal muscle can deliver healthy mitochondria to damaged cells, restoring energy and promoting tissue repair in mice. The approach reversed acute muscle injury and chronic kidney disease, offering a promising new regenerative therapy. | | | | This article critically reviews leading cosmeceutical ingredients, including niacinamide, retinoids, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and sunscreens, focusing on their evidence base, mechanisms, and clinical effects. It highlights efficacy, safety profiles, formulation challenges, and areas where robust research is needed to support dermatological recommendations. | | | | Research on chitosan-PCL films reveals enhanced durability and biodegradability, offering sustainable solutions for food packaging and pollution reduction. | |
