Pyroptosis is an effective strategy for inducing inflammatory responses in 'cold' tumors, boosting the efficacy of immunotherapy. Although biodegradable inorganic nanoparticles (BINPs) show great potential in pyroptosis by releasing ions to break intracellular homeostasis, the limited intracellular ion release efficiency restricts pyroptosis level and subsequent immune activation. Herein, by heterovalent substitution strategy, a series of NaZrF:x%Yb (NZF:x%Yb, x = 0, 9, and 18) BINPs with tunable intracellular ion release efficiency are synthesized for enhanced pyroptosis and tumor immunotherapy.

Artificial rearing (AR) of lambs is nowadays a common practice in Mediterranean dairy sheep production systems to enhance the milk available for cheese or yoghurt manufacturing. The sufficient growth of lambs in an AR system is vital for the economic success of dairy sheep farms. However, AR is often associated with negative impacts on the performance and physiology of lambs.

Background: Thyroid hormones and sympathetic stimulation are needed for activating Brown adipose tissue (BAT) during cold exposure. Studies of human cold exposure have demonstrated both increased production and raised clearance of triiodothyronine (T3). Greenlandic hunters provide a unique model for evaluating metabolic effects of cold exposure.

Thyroid illness encompasses a range of disorders affecting the thyroid gland, leading to either hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, which can significantly impact metabolism and overall health. Hypothyroidism can cause a slowdown in bodily processes, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, depression, and cold sensitivity. Hyperthyroidism can lead to increased metabolism, causing symptoms like rapid weight loss, anxiety, irritability, and heart palpitations.
