new Congratulations! Professor Chen has been elected as a member of the Academia Europaea.



CFP - Special issue on Molecular Imaging and Theranostics. Guest Editors: Dr. Jianhua Zou, Dr. Jingjing Zhang and Dr. Mengyao Zhao.


Rationale: Consumption of a high-fat diet (HFD) has been implicated in cognitive deficits and gastrointestinal dysfunction in humans, with the gut microbiota emerging as a pivotal mediator of these diet-associated pathologies. The introduction of plant-based polysaccharides into the diet as a therapeutic strategy to alleviate such conditions is gaining attention. Nevertheless, the mechanistic paradigm by which polysaccharides modulate the gut microbiota remains largely undefined. This study investigated the mechanisms of action of Eucommiae cortex polysaccharides (EPs) in mitigating gut dysbiosis....
Over the past ten years, significant advancements have been made in exploring plant-derived exosome-like nanoparticles (PELNs) for disease therapeutics and drug delivery. PELNs, as inherent nanoscale particles comprised of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and secondary metabolites, exhibit the capacity for cellular uptake by human cells. This intercellular interaction transcends biological boundaries, effectively influencing biological functions in animals. PELNs have outstanding biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, enhanced safety, and environmentally friendly sustainability. This article summarized....
