Purpose: The potential use of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in healthcare research has increased dramatically in recent years, owing to advancements in their synthesis techniques, including green synthesis. Although is a popular medicinal plant that harbors many bioactive phytochemicals in various parts of the world, the green synthesis of AuNPs using this precious plant is still under investigation. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the green synthesis of AuNPs from Thunberg leaves (CTT-AuNPs) and their antibacterial and cytotoxic properties.

Endometritis is a significant cause of infertility in mare. Some infectious agents disrupt the endometrium's innate immune system, resulting in a prolonged systemic inflammatory response that circulates via the blood or cellular degeneration, which ultimately leads to endometritis from bacterial endotoxins. Numerous biological processes use various small, non-coding RNA molecules called MicroRNAs.
