Nanoscale resolution scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) is now at the forefront of imaging topography of biological cells even if they have complex and delicate surface structures. SICM offers several advantages ...
Diverse bacteria assemble and secrete polysaccharides that alter their physiologies through modulation of motility, biofilm formation, and host immune system evasion. Most such pathways require outer membrane (OM) ...

Since its first emergence in December 2019, the world has witnessed the eruption of mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome that have led to increased viral transmissibility and pathogenicity due to sustained local viral ...
Enhancing sperm motility in vitro has immensely benefited assisted conception methods. Phosphodiesterases (PDE) break the second messenger cAMP, and therefore, inhibition of their catalytic activity enhances the sperm ...
Autoimmune diseases are driven by TH17 cells that secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines, especially IL-17. Under normal physiological conditions, autoreactive T cells are suppressed by TGF-β and IL-10 secreted by microglia ...
Ideal dressing materials for complex and large asymmetric burns should have the dual properties of anti-bacterial and regenerative with advanced applicability of direct deposit on the wound at the patient bedside. In this ...

Enzyme-based synthetic chemistry provides a green way to synthesize industrially important chemical scaffolds and provides incomparable substrate specificity and unmatched stereo-, regio-, and chemoselective product ...
The essential fatty acids (EFA), n3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), and n6 linoleic acid (LA) are of benefit in diabetes mellitus, but their mechanisms of action are unknown. We, therefore, examined the effects of EFAs on the ...
Biomolecular structural knowledge is important to understand the biological processes and the mechanisms underlying human diseases. In silico modeling plays a vital role in de novo design and docking of biomacromolecules ...
Radiation is pro-inflammatory in nature in view of its ability to induce the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors with associated inflammatory cells. Cells are efficient ...
