Introduction: Leishmaniasis is a tropical parasitic disease caused by the protozoan Leishmania which remains a significant global health concern with diverse clinical manifestations. Transmitted through the bite of an infected sandfly, its progression depends on the interplay between the host immune response and the parasite. The disease outcome is linked to macrophage polarisation into M1 and M2 phenotypes.

Exploring the energetics and bimolecular interaction of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) with various classes and generations of antibiotics in the absence and presence of a resorcinol based acridinedione dye (ADR1) were carried out. The binding stability of BSA-antibiotic complexes decreases on the introduction of ADR1 dye resulting in a positive value of free energy change, accompanied with several unfavourable interactions. Several polar amino acids contributed to the stability of the host-guest complex compared to that of non-polar amino acids, wherein BSA acts as the host, and antibiotics as the guest and ADR1 dye as the competing guest molecule.

Developing new materials capable of the safe and efficient removal of toxic substances has become a research hotspot in the field of materials science, as these toxic substances pose a serious threat to human health, both directly and indirectly. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as an emerging class of crystalline porous materials, have advantages such as large specific surface area, tunable pore size, designable structure, and good biocompatibility, which have been proven to be a superior adsorbent design platform for toxic substances capture. This review will summarize the synthesis methods of COFs and the properties and characteristics of typical toxicants, discuss the design strategies of COF-based adsorbents for the removal of toxic substances, and highlight the recent advancements in COF-based adsorbents as robust candidates for the efficient removal of various types of toxicants, such as animal toxins, microbial toxins, phytotoxins, environmental toxins, The adsorption performance and related mechanisms of COF-based adsorbents for different types of toxic substances will be discussed.

As an important starch crop, sweet potato has significant practical importance for maintaining food security worldwide. This study identified differential expressed genes associated with the expansion of tuberous roots by comparing the transcriptome across tuberous roots at the initial period (initiated tuberous roots (ITRs), rapid expansion period (tuberous roots (TRs), fibrous roots (FRs) at the seedling stage, and fibrous roots at the adult stage (unexpanded FRs (UFRs)). sRNA-seq and degradome analyses were performed to reveal the role of miRNAs in tuberous root development in sweet potato.
