Nanotechnology Responses to COVID‐19
The coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2, responsible for COVID‐19, can be regarded as an intelligent functional nanoparticle. Therefore, nanoscience and nanotechnology concepts and tools can play a vital role in the responses to this pandemic, enabling detection, prevention, and treatment, as discussed here with examples of the latest progress accomplished by the ...

Abstract The European Commission asked EFSA for a scientific opinion on the risks for animal and human health related to the presence of glycoalkaloids (GAs) in feed and food. This risk assessment covers edible parts of potato plants and other food plants containing GAs, in particular, tomato and aubergine. In humans, acute toxic effects of potato GAs (

This study aims to investigate the biological activities of endemic plant Anabasis aretioïdes harvested in eastern Morocco. Various extracts were prepared from aerial part by aqueous and organic extraction using a Soxhlet and cold maceration. Preliminary phytochemical analysis was carried out on the powder and on the different extracts by standard ...

Cardenolide‐functionalized extracellular vesicles enable targeted delivery of the chemotherapeutic doxorubicin to A549 lung cancer cells by binding Na+/K+‐ATPase, which is overexpressed in these cells. Surface‐modified, drug‐loaded EVs exhibit enhanced cytotoxicity compared to unmodified EVs and free drug, suggesting this system may lower the effective

Rod‐shaped particles outperform spherical particles of the same volume in preventing neutrophil infiltration to inflamed areas, both in vitro and in vivo. This therapeutic effectiveness is attributed to better cell targeting and decreased cell motility, resulting from the geometry‐driven phagocytosis and inhibited actin polymerization.

The nutritional properties of C. esculenta have been demonstrated. Consumption of C. esculenta reduces anemic disorder in Wistar rats. C. esclenta harvested in Dschang has the best anti‐anemic potential. ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess the nutritional value and effect of Colocasia esculenta flowers on induced anemia in Wistar rats.

Surface CD69‐Negative CD4 and CD8 Bone Marrow‐Resident Human Memory T Cells
Through the analysis of TCR repertoires, differential gene expression, and flow cytometry, we propose a mechanism in which surface CD69‐negative memory T cells reside in the bone marrow of healthy humans. Therefore, we challenge the notion of surface CD69‐positive T cells representing the only bona fide resident phenotype in the bone marrow.
