Micro and nanoplastics (MNPLs) are emergent environmental pollutants, resulting from the degradation of plastic waste, requiring urgent information on their potential risks to human health. To determine such risks, reliable true-to-life materials are essential. [...]

Hydroxyapatite (HAP) occurs naturally in sedimentary and metamorphic rocks and constitutes the hard structures in many organisms. Since synthetic nano-sized HAP (HAP-NPs) are used in orthopedic applications and for heavy metal remediation in aquatic and terrestrial media, both environment and humans are exposed to them. [...]

Deciphering the role of innate immune response in the model of tuberculosis in Drosophila melanogaster

Arch Sisquella, Marta ;
Cardona, Pere-Joan, dir.
Actualment, s'estima que una tercera part de la població mundial està infectada per Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Tot i això, només un petit percentatge desenvoluparà la malaltia activa. S'ha demostrat que aquesta progressió està relacionada amb una infiltració massiva neutròfils a les lesions infectades per Mtb i la posterior inducció d'una resposta immune de tipus Th17. [...] Actualmente, se estima que una tercera parte de la población mundial está infectada por Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Sin embargo, sólo un pequeño porcentaje desarrollará la enfermedad activa. [...] Nowadays it is estimated that a third of the world population is infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). However, just a reduced percentage will develop the active disease. It has been shown that this progression is related to massive neutrophil infiltration of lesions infected with Mtb and subsequent induction of a Th17 type immune response. [...]

Since heavy metals and micro−/nanoplastics (MNPLs) can share common environmental niches, their potential interactions could modulate their hazard impacts. The current study was planned to evaluate the potential interactions between silver compounds (silver nanoparticles or silver nitrate) and two different sizes of polystyrene nanoplastics (PSNPLs) (PS-50 and PS-500 nm), administered via ingestion to Drosophila larvae.

The McDonald and Kreitman test (MKT) is one of the most powerful and widely used methods to detect and quantify recurrent natural selection using DNA sequence data. Here we present iMKT (acronym for integrative McDonald and Kreitman test), a novel web-based service performing four distinct MKT types. [...]
