Mosses and lichens are often used to assess atmospheric deposition of Pb. The most widely used method for determining this isotope is gamma spectrometric analysis. There is often a need to enhance the sensitivity of the method, which can be achieved by pre-concentrating Pb.

A pseudogene is a non-functional copy of a protein-coding gene. Processed pseudogenes, which are created by the reverse transcription of mRNA and subsequent integration of the resulting cDNA into the genome, being a major pseudogene class, represent a significant challenge in genome analysis due to their high sequence similarity to the parent genes and their frequent absence in the reference genome. This homology can lead to errors in variant identification, as sequences derived from processed pseudogenes can be incorrectly assigned to parental genes, complicating correct variant calling.

During all periods of male ontogenesis, physiological processes responsible for the correct functioning of reproductive organs and spermatogenesis are under the influence of various factors (neuro-humoral, genetic, and paratypical). Recently, the attention of researchers has increasingly turned to the study of epigenetic factors. In scientific publications, one can increasingly find references to the direct role of microRNAs, small non-coding RNAs involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, in the processes of development and functioning of reproductive organs.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) poses a significant public health issue. Despite the fact that today there are several methods of maintenance therapy, one of the most widely used methods is designed to correct the deficiency of acetylcholine. In the search for new potential inhibitors of cholinesterase enzymes, eight new derivatives of 3-oxo- or 2,3-indolo-triterpenic acid conjugated with amino-quinuclidine bicyclic cores were designed and synthesized.
