Translational bioengineering perspectives on biosensors and nanorobotics for cancer theranostics

The convergence of diagnostics and therapeutics, known as cancer theranostics, has become the backbone of 21st-century precision oncology. In the past decade, exponential progress in the engineering of nano-biosensors, nanorobotic actuation, and molecular biomarker profiling has...

Phenological documentation of two seasonal cytotypic populations of Chenopodium album L. using extended BBCH scale

Abstract Chenopodium album L. is a globally important plant species recognized for its ethnobotanical value, ecological adaptability, and agricultural significance. Its young shoots are widely consumed as a nutrient-rich leafy vegetable, while the species also functions as one of...

Unveiling the antidiabetic activity and potential molecular mechanisms of a polyherbal HP-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex to reveal the integrated network pharmacology, docking studies against the PP242–mTOR complex and In-Vivo investigations

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a rapidly increasing global health concern characterized by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and increased oxidative stress. Despite the availability of several antidiabetic therapies, long-term management remains challenging due to adverse ef...

Thermal regulation of phenological development in karonda (Carissa carandas L.) based on an extended BBCH scale

This study provides the first integrated phenological and thermal time framework for karonda ( Carissa carandas L.) using the extended BBCH scale. Karonda is an underutilized evergreen fruit crop valued for its adaptability to marginal environments; however, standardized informat...

Neuropeptide Pathways as Next‐Generation Targets for Manipulating Insect Behaviour and Communication

ABSTRACT Insects display a wide range of complex behaviours despite having relatively simple nervous systems, and neuropeptides have emerged as key signalling molecules connecting neural processing with physiological states and behaviours. This review consolidates current underst...

Combined Application of Rhizobium sp. MR-14 and Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria Bacillus cereus NE-10 in Mungbean ( Vigna radiata L.) Improves Plant Growth and Yield of Succeeding Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) and Soil Chemical and Biological Properties

Microbial inoculants, mainly Rhizobium spp. and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB), have emerged as promising biofertilizers in sustainable agriculture. This study evaluated the contributions of co-inoculating mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) with Rhizobium sp. MR-14 (Mesorhizobium...
