Green Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles (CM-AgNPs) from the Root of for Improving the Cytotoxicity Effect in Cancer Cells with Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activities.

The unique properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), such as size, surface charge, and the ability to release silver ions, contribute to DNA damage, inducing of oxidative stress, and apoptosis in cancer cells. Thus, the potential application of AgNPs in the field of biomedicine, and cancer therapy are rapidly increasing day by day. Therefore, in this study, AgNPs were synthesized by extract of , and then the synthesized CM-AgNPs were fully characterized.

Adherence to Life's Essential 8 is associated with delayed white matter aging.

Importance: The American Heart Association introduced Life's Essential 8 (LE8) as a checklist of healthy lifestyle factors to help older individuals maintain and improve cardiovascular health and live longer. How LE8 can foster healthy brain aging and interact with genetic risk factors to render the aging brain less vulnerable to dementia is not well understood.

Objective: To investigate the impact of LE8 on the white matter brain aging and the moderating effects of the allele.

BATF2/SINHCAF regulates the quantity and function of macrophages infected with Mycobacterium Tuberculosis via regulation of TTC23 through Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Elucidating the pathogenic mechanism of Tuberculosis (TB) can contribute to control TB. Basic leucine zipper transcription factor ATF-like 2 (BATF2) belonging to a large family of leucine zipper transcription factors (TFs) termed bZip proteins, had been verified to have important value in the diagnosis of TB. However, its role and mechanism in TB had not been elucidated.

PACAP/PAC1 regulation in cystitis rats: induction of bladder inflammation cascade leading to bladder dysfunction.

Introduction: Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic and debilitating condition marked by bladder pain, urinary urgency, and frequency. The pathophysiology of IC/BPS remains poorly understood, with limited therapeutic options available. The role of Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) and its receptor PAC1 in IC/BPS has not been thoroughly investigated, despite their potential involvement in inflammation and sensory dysfunction.

The dynamin-related protein PfDyn2 is essential for both apicoplast and mitochondrial fission in .

Dynamins, or dynamin-related proteins (DRPs), are large mechano-sensitive GTPases that mediate membrane dynamics or organellar fission/fusion events. encodes three dynamin-like proteins whose functions are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that one of these dynamin-related proteins, PfDyn2, is required to divide both the apicoplast and the mitochondrion, a striking divergence from the biology of related parasites.
