Background: Isoxazolines inhibit γ-aminobutyric acid chloride channels in insects and acarids by binding to postsynaptic receptors. This prevents chloride influx, leading to depolarization/hyperexcitation, paralysis, and death. Here, we evaluated the potential utility of a novel isoxazoline, isocycloseram, against several urban insect pests.

- Scientists from 34 labs in 19 countries worked together to measure certain fats (ceramides) in human blood using special techniques.
- They used both standard methods and their own methods to get very accurate and consistent results.
- The study helps improve future medical tests and treatments by providing reliable information about these fats in blood samples.
Immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines BBV152 (COVAXIN®) and ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (COVISHIELD™) in seronegative and seropositive individuals in India: a multicentre, nonrandomised observational study.

Background: There are limited global data on head-to-head comparisons of vaccine platforms assessing both humoral and cellular immune responses, stratified by pre-vaccination serostatus. The COVID-19 vaccination drive for the Indian population in the age group 18-45 years began in April 2021 when seropositivity rates in the general population were rising due to the delta wave of COVID-19 pandemic during April-May 2021.
Methods: Between June 30, 2021, and Jan 28, 2022, we enrolled 691 participants in the age group 18-45 years across four clinical sites in India.
50 years ago, cell biology was a nascent field. Today, it is a vast discipline whose principles and tools are also applied to other disciplines; vice versa, cell biologists are inspired by other fields. So, the question begs: what is cell biology? The answers are as diverse as the people who define it.
