Article Synopsis
- - Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) technology generates a mix of reactive species, UV radiation, and electromagnetic fields for biological applications, notably improving seed germination and plant growth, but the specific plant responses to CAP are still unclear.
- - In a study, young Arabidopsis thaliana leaves exposed to short CAP treatments showed rapid, localized tissue damage while increasing hydrogen peroxide levels and upregulating stress-related genes, similar to a wound response.
- - The research highlighted the activation of RSH genes, which are involved in stress regulation and photosynthesis, suggesting that CAP exposure triggers specific signaling pathways in plants, warranting further investigation into these metabolic responses.
Non-Ionic Fluorosurfactants for Droplet-Based in vivo Applications.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
December 2024
Fluorocarbon oils are uniquely suited for many biomedical applications due to their inert, bioorthogonal properties. In order to interface fluorocarbon oils with biological systems, non-ionic fluorosurfactants are necessary. However, there is a paucity of non-ionic fluorosurfactants with low interfacial tension (IFT) to stabilize fluorocarbon phases in aqueous environments (such as oil-in-water emulsions).

The emphasis is, therefore, placed on investigating the potential impacts of radiofrequency radiation on biota. In this work, the impact of 2850 MHz electromagnetic field radiation (EMF-r) on early development, photosynthetic pigments, and the metabolic profile of two Brassica oleracea L.

- Mechanics is super important for how cells work and develop, and osmotic pressure affects cell and tissue features.
- Scientists created special sensors to measure osmotic pressure in living tissues and early zebrafish embryos.
- They found that there is a balance of osmotic pressure inside and outside the cells, which could help us learn more about how cells function in the body.
Bioelectrical State of Bacteria Is Linked to Growth Dynamics and Response to Neurotransmitters: Perspectives for the Investigation of the Microbiota-Brain Axis.
Int J Mol Sci
August 2023
Inter-cellular communication is mediated by a sum of biochemical, biophysical, and bioelectrical signals. This might occur not only between cells belonging to the same tissue and/or animal species but also between cells that are, from an evolutionary point of view, far away. The possibility that bioelectrical communication takes place between bacteria and nerve cells has opened exciting perspectives in the study of the gut microbiota-brain axis.
