Researchers review how hydrogel-based wearable devices can collect and analyze sweat to monitor health biomarkers like glucose, lactate, and electrolytes. These flexible, biocompatible sensors offer a non-invasive alternative to blood tests for real-time health tracking.

Researchers have discovered a novel role of Neuraminidase 1 (NEU1) in the pathophysiology of acute lung injury (ALI) and uncovers NEU1 as a direct target of baicalin and Huanglian Jiedu Decoction (HLJDD) in alleviating ALI. NEU1 binding to the CXCR4 protein, thereby activating the downstream JNK signaling pathway, promoting inflammation and endothelial barrier damage; whereas baicalin can enhance the degradation of NEU1 protein via the lysosomal pathway, thereby improving endothelial dysfunction and acute lung injury.

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, low propensity to induce bacterial resistance, and multifunctional properties including immunomodulation and tissue regeneration promotion.This study comprehensively reviews the classification, antimicrobial mechanisms, and therapeutic applications of AMPs in major oral diseases such as dental caries, periodontitis, oral cancer, oral candidiasis, and oral mucositis. The research also analyzes key challenges in clinical translation (stability, cytotoxicity, immunogenicity, production costs) and corresponding solutions, while exploring their applications in implant coatings, oral dressings, combination therapy, and diagnostic markers, providing a robust theoretical basis for advancing oral disease treatment.
