Liquid-biopsy for assessing severity of inflammatory bowel disease via plasma microbial cell-free dna
Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has emerged as a robust biomarker utilized in multiple applications that span cancer screening, diagnosis and monitoring, prenatal testing, and characterization of organ health post-transplantation. Cell-free DNA-based assays leverage the occurrence of processed extracellular DNA that produce unique signatures to discern a variety of biological states, disease manifestations, as well as forms of cell death. Similar to human cells, microbes produce cfDNA when they turnover, providing evident clinical utility in diagnosing and treating deep-seated infections in immunocompromised patients.

Genes, Vol. 15, Pages 154: Molecular Evaluation of the Effects of FLC Homologs and Coordinating Regulators on the Flowering Responses to Vernalization in Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) Genotypes
This study sheds light on cabbage genotypes—particularly those of CAB1 and CAB5—and suggests that structural variations in BoFLC2 and 3 bind flowering regulators, such as COOLAIR, which may affect cabbage flowering time. (Source: Genes)

Molecules, Vol. 29, Pages 519: Comparative Studies of Extracts Obtained from Brassica oleracea L. Plants at Different Stages of Growth by Isolation and Determination of Isothiocyanates: An Assessment of Chemopreventive Properties of Broccoli
„ska
The main goal of this work was to develop analytical procedures for the isolation and determination of selected isothiocyanates. As an example, particularly sulforaphane from plants of the Brassicaceae Burnett or Cruciferae Juss family. The applied methodology was mainly based on classical extraction methods and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Moreover, the effect of temperature on the release of isothiocyanates from plant cells was considered. The cytotoxic activity of the obtained plant extracts against a selected cancer cell line has also been included. The results ...

Fates of attached E. coli o157:h7 on intact leaf surfaces revealed leafy green susceptibility
Food Microbiol. 2024 May;119:104432. doi: 10.1016/j.fm.2023.104432. Epub 2023 Nov 28.ABSTRACTLeafy greens, especially lettuce, are repeatedly linked to foodborne outbreaks. This paper studied the susceptibility of different leafy greens to human pathogens. Five commonly consumed leafy greens, including romaine lettuce, green-leaf lettuce, baby spinach, kale, and collard, were selected by their outbreak frequencies. The behavior of E. coli O157:H7 87-23 on intact leaf surfaces and in their lysates was investigated. Bacterial attachment was positively correlated with leaf surface roughness and affected by the epicuticular wa...
