This study identifies three photoprotective mechanisms in diatoms under light stress: detachment of oxygen-evolving complex proteins, NPQ in the antenna, and energy spillover between photosystems.

This study reveals that SpoIVA forms track-like polymers during bacterial spore development, with dimerization and ATPase activity playing distinct roles in its assembly and function.

This study investigates the effects of manganese dioxide on macrophages under repeated exposure, finding mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation.

This study compares the effects of polystyrene and polylactide nanoparticles on macrophages under repeated exposure, showing adaptation and harmful effects.

This study shows that structural and chemical differences in iron oxide pigments lead to distinct biological effects in macrophages, even when administered in equal amounts.

The paper investigates the effects of red and black iron oxide pigments on macrophages, finding that red iron oxide causes mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and pro-inflammatory cytokine secretion.
