In recent years, the conventional preparation of silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) has attracted much attention due to their ultra-small size, tunable fluorescence, easy-to-engineer, as well as biocompatible material. Moreover, its great affinity towards cytosine bases on single-stranded DNA has led to the construction of biosensors, especially aptamers, for a broad variety of applications in food safety and environmental protection. In past years, numerous researchers paid attention to the construction of AgNCs aptasensor. Therefore, this review will be an effort to summarize the synthetic strategy along with the influences of factors on synthesis, categorize the sensing mechanism of aptamer-functionalized AgNCs biosensors, as well as their specific applications in food safety detection including heavy metal, toxin, and foodborne pathogenic bacteria. Furthermore, a brief conclusion and outlook regarding the prospects and challenges of their applications in food safety were drawn in line with the developments in DNA-AgNCs.

Soy protein remains a key component of plant-based food development, but its application is challenged by inherent allergenicity. Previous work identified that native amyloid-like protein aggregates in soy 7S globulin that resist gastrointestinal digestion and exhibit pronounced antigenicity. Herein, we demonstrate that protein deamidation significantly enhances proteolysis under an infant gastrointestinal digestion model, leading to ∼80 and 50% reductions in IgG- and IgE-binding capacities, respectively.

Rising atmospheric CO exposes plants to high-CO environments, while excessive nitrogen fertilizer use degrades soil, highlighting the need to reduce nitrogen input and cultivate vigorous cucumber seedlings under HC-LN conditions. Calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs) sense calcium signals and regulate carbon/nitrogen metabolism via CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs), though their roles in cucumber under HC-LN conditions are unclear. Here, we identified seven and 19 genes.

Lung cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide, highlighting the urgent need for more effective and targeted therapeutic strategies. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), known for its favorable safety profile and broad pharmacological effects, offers promising candidates for cancer treatment. Salvianolic acid F (SAF), a key bioactive compound derived from , has demonstrated antitumor potential, but its role and underlying mechanisms in lung cancer remain inadequately characterized.
