The citrus canker pathogen has caused severe damage to citrus crops worldwide, resulting in significant economic losses for the citrus industry. To address this, a green synthesis method was used to develop silver nanoparticles with the leaf extract of (GS-AgNP-LEPN). This method replaces the need for toxic reagents, as the LEPN acts as a reducing and capping agent.

Accumulated evidence has demonstrated that exosomes can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB), suggesting their potential use as drug delivery vehicles to glioma. Therefore, various loading methods of anticancer agents into exosomes have been developed.

- The effectiveness of in vitro skeletal muscle models largely depends on their differentiation levels and tissue alignment.
- Substrate micropatterning is highlighted as a valuable technique that mimics the natural cellular environment, aiding in the study of muscle development mechanisms, although its effects on satellite cell behavior need more investigation.
- This study showcases how micropatterned substrates can influence myotube size and alignment, using rat satellite cells to measure various differentiation metrics and assess functional muscle behavior.
