Article Abstract
Laser capture microdissection (LCM) is a high-end research and diagnostic technology that helps in obtaining pure cell populations for the purpose of cell- or lesion-specific genomic and proteomic analysis. Literature search on the application of LCM in oral tissues was made through PubMed. There is ample evidence to substantiate the utility of LCM in understanding the underlying molecular mechanism involving an array of oral physiological and pathological processes, including odontogenesis, taste perception, eruptive tooth movement, oral microbes, and cancers of the mouth and jaw tumors. This review is aimed at exploring the potential application of LCM in oral tissues as a high-throughput tool for integrated oral sciences. The indispensable application of LCM in the construction of lesion-specific genomic libraries with emphasis on some of the novel molecular markers thus discovered is also highlighted.

New treatment approaches are warranted for patients with advanced melanoma refractory to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) or BRAF-targeted therapy. We designed BNT221, a personalized, neoantigen-specific autologous T cell product derived from peripheral blood, and tested this in a 3 + 3 dose-finding study with two dose levels (DLs) in patients with locally advanced or metastatic melanoma, disease progression after ICB, measurable disease (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1) and, where appropriate, BRAF-targeted therapy.

Anion dimerization poses a significant challenge for the application of Li-rich cathode materials (LCMs) in high-energy-density Li-ion batteries because of its deleterious effects, including rapid capacity and voltage decay, sluggish reaction kinetics, and large voltage hysteresis. Herein, we propose a metal-ligand spin-lock strategy to inhibit anion dimerization, which involves introducing an Fe-Ni couple having antiferromagnetic superexchange interaction into the LCM to lock the spin orientations of the unpaired electrons in the anions in the same direction. As proof of concept, we applied this strategy to intralayer disordered LiTiS (ID-LTS) to inhibit S-S dimerization.

Article Synopsis
- - Microalgae are promising microorganisms that can produce a variety of valuable compounds, like proteins and antioxidants, due to their rapid growth and ability to utilize CO2 and wastewater, making them sustainable for various industries like bioenergy and cosmetics.
- - The study emphasizes the importance of selecting the right microalgal species and manipulating growth conditions (like light, nutrients, and temperature) to enhance the production of desired compounds, while facing challenges related to species responses and scale-up.
- - Future research should focus on improving cultivation methods, real-time monitoring for better yield, and conducting large-scale experiments to analyze the sustainability and economic feasibility of microalgal applications.
A novel process for transcellular hemoglobin transport from macrophages to cancer cells.

Hemoglobin (Hb) performs its physiological function within the erythrocyte. Extracellular Hb has prooxidative and proinflammatory properties and is therefore sequestered by haptoglobin and bound by the CD163 receptor on macrophages. In the present study, we demonstrate a novel process of Hb uptake by macrophages independent of haptoglobin and CD163.

Electronic waste (e-waste) is a global problem, and many countries have established laws and regulations to promote its proper disposal and recycling. E-waste contains a significant content of printed circuit boards (PCBs), composed of metals and other valuable metals that may become scarce in Earth's crust - Copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), gold (Au), silver (Ag), palladium (Pd), and others. The main objective of this review is to explore the potential for producing nanoparticles (NPs) from the metals extracted through PCB recycling, with applications in the cosmetics, cement manufacturing, and carbon dioxide (CO) capture industries.
