The study assessed histological, biochemical, oxidative stress, and molecular parameters to evaluate the consequences of Chlorpyrifos and Dimethoate exposure on uterine health in female rats. Despite showing no obvious signs of toxicity apart from minor clinical symptoms in DM-exposed rats, both pesticides caused degenerative changes in uterine tissue. This study demonstrates that pesticides induce inflammatory responses and oxidative stress in rats, by NF-κB activation and altering antioxidant enzyme levels.

Single-cell sequencing was developed as a high-throughput tool to elucidate unusual and transient cell states that are barely visible in the bulk. This technology reveals the evolutionary status of cells and differences between populations, helps to identify unique cell subtypes and states, reveals regulatory relationships between genes, targets and molecular mechanisms in disease processes, tumor heterogeneity, the state of the immune environment, etc. However, the high cost and technical limitations of single-cell sequencing initially prevented its widespread application, but with advances in research, numerous new single-cell sequencing techniques have been discovered, lowering the cost barrier.

Bio-functionalized metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have been taken great importance in biomedical fields. The use of nanoparticles as delivery agents of therapeutic molecules led the researchers to emphasize the potential impact of these NPs on bio-macromolecules as protein-nanoparticle complexes, which also extended their importance as vehicles in targeted drug delivery systems due to increased ease of administration, firmness, reduced toxic side effects, and half-life of drugs. Since human serum albumin is the blood protein responsible for transporting materials in the blood system, the interaction of these particles with HSA is essential to be understood before considering the nanoparticles for any individual biomedical application.
