New kinetically stabilized mono- and bis-phosphaalkene ligands (2 and 3, respectively) were synthesized via the phospha-Wittig approach. Ligand 3 was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The coordinating behaviour of the bidentate ligand was investigated towards group 11 metal centers in order to test its capacity to bind two coordination sites located in a trans-fashion. The [Au(3)][BF4], [Ag(3)(H2O)][BF4] and [Cu(3)(CH3CN)][BF4] complexes 4 , 5 and 6, respectively, were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The peculiar geometries of 4 and 6 were rationalized by means of DFT calculations.

Purpose: We aimed to explore the mechanism by which Boron-doped nano-hydroxyapatite (B-nHAp) facilitates the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts through controlled release of B.
Methods: B-nHAp characterization was accomplished by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and transmission electron microscopy. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were subjected to flow cytometry, alizarin red S staining, and cell counting kit-8 assay for proliferation and differentiation determination.

The removal of heavy metal ions, such as lead (Pb2+), from aqueous systems is critical due to their high toxicity and bioaccumulation in living organisms. This study presents a straightforward approach for the synthesis and surface modification of iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) for the magnetic removal of Pb2+ ions. IONPs were produced via electrosynthesis at varying voltages (10-40 V), with optimal magnetic properties achieved at 40 V resulting in highly crystalline and magnetic IONPs in the gamma-maghemite (γ-Fe2O3) phase.

In recent years, significant advancements have been achieved in the development of multiplex imaging methodologies for immunophenotyping, enabling a comprehensive characterization of the complexity of tumor microenvironments. Imaging mass cytometry combines the detection of over 40 cellular targets with spatial information, enabling the identification of not only which cells are present in a tissue but also their localization relative to each other. Here, we present an easy-to-implement imaging mass cytometry workflow that ranges from antibody selection and testing to running a full panel.

A dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR)-like enzyme from Leptospira interrogans (LiDHFRL) was cloned and the recombinant protein was characterized. Sequence alignment suggested that the enzyme lacked the conserved catalytic residues found in DHFR. Indeed, LiDHFRL did not catalyze the reduction of dihydrofolate by either NADH or NADPH.

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (FFA) is a primary lymphocytic cicatricial alopecia predominantly affecting postmenopausal Caucasian women. It is characterized by a progressive frontotemporal hairline recession that presents as a scarring hairless band and is often accompanied by eyebrow and body hair loss. Although initially described in postmenopausal women, FFA has been observed in a broader demographic, including premenopausal women and occasionally men.
