culture derived silver nanoparticles exert potent anticancer action in 2D and 3D models of lung cancer via mitochondrial depolarization-mediated apoptosis.

Lung cancer is one of the most commonly occurring cancer types that accounts for almost 2 million cases per year. Its resistance to anticancer drugs, failure of new molecules in clinical trials, severe side-effects of current treatments, and its recurrence limit the success of anticancer therapies. Nanotherapeutic agents offer several advantages over conventional anticancer therapies, including improved retention in tumors, specificity, and anticancer effects at lower concentrations, hence reducing the side-effects.

Getting bacterial cells into shape.

The conformational state of a structural protein in bacteria can vary, depending on the concentration level of potassium ions or the nucleotide bound to it.

Clinical and Radiological Outcomes after Reducing Adult Lytic High-Grade Spondylolisthesis Using a Hybrid Technique: Combination of Percutaneous Pedicle Screws with Midline Microscopic Transforaminal Decompression.

Study Design: Retrospective study.

Purpose: To analyze the results and effectiveness of percutaneous screws (PS) with midline microscopic transforaminal decompression (MTFD) technique in reducing adult stiff lytic high-grade spondylolisthesis (HGSL) and compare it with the conventional technique.

Overview Of Literature: Pedicle screw cannulation and segmental kyphosis negotiation are surgical challenges in HGSL.
