Direct Enzymatic Synthesis of Fatty Amines
2026-08-27
The ChemBioChem study developed a one-pot enzyme cascade that converts renewable triglycerides and oils into primary fatty amines, avoiding several harsh and poorly selective features of conventional routes. The approach reached analytical yields of up to 97% and delivered laurylamine from trilaurin at preparative scale, providing a useful proof of concept for triglyceride-based biocatalytic synthesis.

Exercise, Muscle EVs, and Amyloid Clearance in AD
2026-08-25
A 2026 Nature Aging study identifies skeletal muscle-derived extracellular vesicles as a mechanistic link between swimming exercise and improved cognition in Alzheimer’s disease mice. The work connects EV uptake by microglia to disease-associated polarization, amyloid-beta plaque clearance, and a miR-378a-3p–p110α lipid-metabolism pathway, suggesting an exercise-mimicking strategy rather than a simple behavioral association.
