Environmental concerns stemming from the widespread use of polyethylene packaging and the perishability of fresh products have promoted the development of antimicrobial biodegradable packaging films in preservation of vegetables. In this study, antimicrobial films based on chitosan (CS)-nisin (Ni)-nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) were characterized, and its preservation effect applied to baby cabbage was investigated. The results suggest that 1 % CS-0.

TSC2, a suppressor of mTOR, is inactivated in up to 20% of HBV-associated liver cancer. This subtype of liver cancer is associated with aggressive behavior and early recurrence after hepatectomy. Being the first targeted regimen for advanced liver cancer, sorafenib has limited efficacy in HBV-positive patients.

In this study, we revealed a critical role of eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase (eEF-2K), a negative regulator of protein synthesis, in regulating T cells during vaccinia virus (VACV) infection. We found that eEF-2K-deficient (eEF-2K⁻/⁻) mice exhibited a significantly higher proportion of VACV-specific effector CD8 T cells without compromising the development of VACV-specific memory CD8 T cells. RNA sequencing demonstrated that eEF-2K⁻/⁻ VACV-specific effector CD8 T cells had enhanced functionality, which improves their capacity to combat viral infection during the effector phase.

Resins are complex mixtures of natural constituents containing non-volatile and volatile terpenes, in combination with gums and polyphenols, used since ancient times for their medicinal properties. Current research has evidenced their therapeutic value with a plethora of activities. The main limits of resins and their constituents for their clinical use are low water solubility, poor stability and bioavailability.
