Benefits of Soybean in the Era of Precision Medicine: A Review of Clinical Evidence
J Microbiol Biotechnol. 2023 Aug 28;33(12):1-11. doi: 10.4014/jmb.2308.08016. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSoybean (Glycine max) is an important ingredient of cuisines worldwide. While there is a wealth of evidence that soybean could be a good source of macronutrients and phytochemicals with healthpromoting effects, concerns regarding adverse effects have been raised. In this work, we reviewed the current clinical evidence focusing on the benefits and risks of soybean ingredients. In breast, prostate, colorectal, ovarian, and lung cancer, epidemiological studies showed an inverse association between soybean food intake an...

Lipid nanoparticles technology in vaccines: Shaping the future of prophylactic medicine
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2022 Dec 20;222:113111. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.113111. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThroughout decades, the intrinsic power of the immune system to fight pathogens has inspired researchers to develop techniques that enable the prevention or treatment of infections via boosting the immune response against the target pathogens, which has led to the evolution of vaccines. The recruitment of Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) as either vaccine delivery platforms or immunogenic modalities has witnessed a breakthrough recently, which has been crowned with the development of effective LNPs-based vacc...

C-type lectin-(like) fold - Protein-protein interaction patterns and utilization
Biotechnol Adv. 2022 Mar 14:107944. doi: 10.1016/j.biotechadv.2022.107944. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe C-type lectin-like fold (CTL fold) is a building block of many proteins, including saccharide-binding lectins, natural killer cell receptors, macrophage mannose receptor, selectins, collectins, snake venoms and others. Some are important players in innate immunity and are involved in the first-line response to virally infected cells or cancer cells, some play a role in antimicrobial defense, and some are potential targets for fight against problems connected with allergies, obesity, and autoimmunity. The structure o...
