There is no consensus in the literature regarding the ideal protocol for obtaining and preparing cell samples for untargeted metabolomics. Nevertheless, the procedures must be carefully evaluated for proper and reliable results for each organism under study. This work proposes a novel protocol for determining intracellular metabolites in Leishmania promastigotes and is fully optimized for application in conjunction with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry platforms.

This study investigates the role of NIK in activating specific inflammatory genes in macrophages, focusing on the effect of a mutation in NIK found in alymphoplasia (/) mice. Mouse peritoneal macrophages from / mice showed a severe defect in the production of some pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-12. This effect seemed to take place at the transcriptional level, as shown by the reduced transcription of and in / macrophages after exposure to the TLR4 agonist LPS.

Background/objectives: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) present significant challenges in modern healthcare, leading to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Examination gloves play a critical role in infection prevention by serving as a barrier to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between healthcare workers and patients. This manuscript aims to provide consensus-based guidelines for the optimal selection, use, and disposal of examination gloves in healthcare settings, addressing both infection prevention and environmental sustainability.
