Chitosan-coated mesoporous MIL-100(Fe) nanoparticles as improved bio-compatible oral nanocarriers

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2017, Volume and Issue: 7(1)

Published: March 3, 2017

Nanometric biocompatible Metal-Organic Frameworks (nanoMOFs) are promising candidates for drug delivery. Up to now, most studies have targeted the intravenous route, related pain and severe complications; whereas nanoMOFs oral administration, a commonly used non-invasive simpler remains however unexplored. We propose here biofriendly preparation of suitable nanocarrier based on benchmarked mesoporous iron(III) trimesate nanoparticles coated with bioadhesive polysaccharide chitosan (CS). This method does not hamper textural/structural properties sorption/release abilities upon surface engineering. The interaction between CS has been characterized through combination high resolution soft X-ray absorption computing simulation, while positive impact coating colloidal chemical stability under simulated conditions is demonstrated. Finally, intestinal barrier bypass capability biocompatibility CS-coated nanoMOF assessed in vitro, leading an increased permeability respect non-coated material, maintaining optimal biocompatibility. In conclusion, preservation interesting physicochemical features their adapted progressive biodegradation, together improved bypass, make these nanocarrier.

The rise and fall of cooperation through reputation and group polarization

Nature Communications, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 10(1)

Published: Feb. 15, 2019

Abstract Humans exhibit a remarkable capacity for cooperation among genetically unrelated individuals. Yet, human is neither universal, nor stable. Instead, often bounded to members of particular groups, and such groups endogenously form or break apart. Cooperation networks are parochial under constant reconfiguration. Here, we demonstrate how emerge as consequence simple reputation heuristics people may use when deciding cooperate defect. These heuristics, “a friend friend” “the enemy an enemy” further lead the dynamic formation fission cooperative accompanied by rise fall agents. The ability humans safeguard kin-independent through gossip be, accordingly, closely interlinked with group-bounded that reconfiguration, ultimately preventing global stable cooperation.

Extensive Transcriptome Changes During Natural Onset and Release of Vegetative Bud Dormancy in Populus

Frontiers in Plant Science, Journal Year: 2015, Volume and Issue: 6

Published: Dec. 17, 2015

To survive winter, many perennial plants become endodormant, a state of suspended growth maintained even in favorable growing environments. understand vegetative bud endodormancy, we collected paradormant, and ecodormant axillary buds from Populus trees under natural conditions. Of 44,441 gene models analyzed using NimbleGen microarrays, found that 1,362 (3.1%) were differentially expressed among the three dormancy states, another 429 (1.0%) during only one two transitions (false discovery rate p-value < 0.05). all genes, 69% down-regulated paradormancy to which was expected given lower metabolic activity associated with endodormancy.
