An eco-friendly synthesis of titanium oxide nanoparticles mediated from Syringodium isoetifolium and evaluate its biological activity and photocatalytic dye degradation. by Sundar, Velmani, Balasubramanian, Balamuralikrishnan, Sivakumar, Mani, Chinnaraj, Santhosh, Palani, Vino, Maluventhen, Viji, Kamyab, Hesam, Chelliapan, Shreeshivadasan, Arumugam, Maruthupandian, Zuleta Mediavilla, Diana Patricia

“…The percentage of degradation by the TiO2 NPs was found to be higher in methylene blue (83 %) than methyl orange (58 %) for S. isoetifolium with marine macro algae extract after 120 min of visible light irradiation. The green synthesis of TiO2 NPs emphases to be cost effective and eco-friendly with antimicrobial and anti-cancer effects against breast cancer cell lines.…”

Functional genetics of cancer and congenital disorders by Zak, J

“…Examining new and published patients with 1q41q42 microdeletions, we found that <em>TP53BP2</em>, encoding ASPP2, is a strong candidate for being the gene responsible for brain morphological abnormalities of the syndrome. Mice deficient for <em>Trp53bp2</em> show multiple abnormalities overlapping the features of the 1q41q42 microdeletion syndrome such as dysmorphic lateral ventricles, heart and urogenital abnormalities. …”

Developing a personalized heterologous prime boost vaccination strategy for tumor therapy by Ramirez-Valdez, RA

“…In this study, a novel intravenous (IV) heterologous prime-boost vaccination strategy with a self-assembling neoantigen-peptide nanoparticle TLR-7/8 agonist (SNP) vaccine platform and a chimp adenovirus (ChAdOx1) was used to elicit high magnitude neoantigen-specific CD8 T cells and modulate the TME. Mice primed with SNP encoding the neoantigen Reps1 for a colon carcinoma (MC38) and boosted with ChAdOx1 IV encoding Reps1 elicited on average ~40% Reps1-specific CD8 T cell responses, which were ~4x higher than mice boosted by the conventional IM route. …”

Self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery System (SNEDDS) formulation and molecular docking of mahogany seed extract (Swietenia mahagoni) as anti-hyperglycemic by Mushawwir Taiyeb, Mushawwir Taiyeb, Hartati Hartati, Hartati Hartati, Arwansyah Arwansyah, Arwansyah Arwansyah, Dahlia, Dahlia, Abd. Muis, Abd. Muis, A. Mu'nisa, A. Mu'nisa, Arif, Abdur Rahman, Md. Salleh, Liza

“…So, research was carried out to determine the formulation and optimization of nanoemulsion from mahogany seed extract (Swietenia mahagoni) and its effect on reducing blood glucose levels in mice (Mus musculus L.). Based on research that has been carried out, the nanoemulsion formula for mahogany seed extract is characterized by a transmittance percentage of 84.7 % and a particle size of 12.21 nm. …”

Living with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: radiological images of a patient with extensive heterotopic ossification by Mohammed Mostafa Kotb, Omar, Usama Farghaly, Kaliya-Perumal, Arun-Kumar

“…Radiographic evaluation with X-rays and CT scans revealed scoliosis and total fusion of almost all levels of the spine, with only a few disc spaces spared. A large mass of heterotopic bone was observed, corresponding to the location of the paraspinal muscles in the lumbar region, branching upwards and fusing with the scapulae on both sides. …”
