Dental caries causes mineral loss and organic damage to teeth. Understanding caries and dentin pulp reactions is crucial for effective caries management strategies. There is a lack of knowledge regarding the microscopic and ultramicroscopic changes that occur during caries destruction and reactive changes.

Immature pituitary-specific transcription factor 1 (PIT1)-lineage pituitary neuroendocrine tumors are composed of PIT1-lineage cells with cytological atypia and limited differentiation. These tumors are rare and no cytological features of this neoplasm have been reported. This study is the first to report the cytological features of an immature PIT1-lineage tumor.

Background: Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) is insensitive to steroid therapy and overwhelmingly progresses to kidney failure (KF), the known pathogenic genes of which include key subunits of the nuclear pore complex (NPC), a less-recognized contributor to glomerular podocyte injury.
Methods: After analyzing their clinical characterizations and obtaining parental consent, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on patients with SRNS. Several nucleoporin (NUP) biallelic pathogenic variants were identified and further analyzed by cDNA-PCR sequencing from white cells of peripheral blood, minigene assay, immunohistochemical (IHC) staining, and electron microscopy (EM) ultrastructure observation of kidney biopsy, as well as multiple in silico prediction tools, including 3D protein modeling.

This study investigated the green synthesis of Zn-MnO nanocomposites via the fungus Penicillium rubens. Herein, the synthesized Zn-MnO nanocomposites were confirmed by UV-spectrophotometry with a top peak (370 nm). Transmission electron microscopy confirmed irregular particles with a spherical-like shape ranging from 25.

Anticoccidials, commonly used in veterinary medicine to treat coccidiosis in food-producing animals, particularly in poultry farming, are associated with potential environmental risks due to their excretion in manure and subsequent land-spreading. Diclazuril, a widely used anticoccidial, has been detected in groundwater, raising concerns about its impact on non-target species. This study investigates the developmental toxicity of diclazuril in zebrafish embryos over a 96-hour exposure period, utilizing biomarkers such as oxidative stress indicators and metabolomic profiles.
