In vitro evaluation of a novel Mg-Sn-Ge ternary alloy for orthopedic applications [PDF]
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys have attracted considerable attention owing to their excellent biodegradable properties and biocompatibility. Novel Mg-Sn-Ge ternary Mg alloys were developed as potential biodegradable materials for orthopedic applications because of their alloying elements naturally present in humans.

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Free Radical Scavenging and Cytotoxic Activities of Substituted Pyrimidines [PDF]
A library of substituted pyrimidines was synthesized and evaluated for free radical scavenging, and in vitro cytotoxic activity in 3T3 cells. All compounds showed good free radical scavenging activity with IC50 values in the range of 42.9 + 0.31 to 438.3 3.3 {\mu}M as compared to the standard butylated hydroxytoluene having IC50 value of 128.83 2.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...
