Microglial research has advanced considerably in recent decades yet has been constrained
by a rolling series of dichotomies such as" resting versus activated" and" M1 versus M2." …

Cells release small, phospholipid membrane-enclosed particles, collectively referred to as
extracellular vesicles (EVs), into their surroundings to enable intercellular communication …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), through their complex cargo, can reflect the state of their cell of
origin and change the functions and phenotypes of other cells. These features indicate …

The identification of the best reference gene is a critical step to evaluate the relative change
in mRNA expression of a target gene by RT-qPCR. In this work, we evaluated nineteen …

Background COVID-19 manifests with respiratory, systemic, and gastrointestinal (GI)
symptoms. 1, SARS-CoV-2 RNA is detected in respiratory and fecal samples, and recent …

Crop leaves in full sunlight dissipate damaging excess absorbed light energy as heat. This
protective dissipation continues after the leaf transitions to shade, reducing crop …

We investigated the presence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-
CoV-2) RNA in wastewater samples in southern Louisiana, USA. Untreated and treated …

According to data compiled by researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore,
Maryland, more than two and half million cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) …

Primers are critical components of any PCR assay, as they are the main determinants of its
specificity, sensitivity, and robustness. Despite the publication of numerous guidelines, the …

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed, endogenous biomolecules in eukaryotes
with tissue-specific and cell-specific expression patterns, whose biogenesis is regulated by …
