According to Rutgers University scientists who study factors that cause low-birth-weight babies, inhaled nanoparticles—human-made specks so small they cannot be seen in conventional microscopes and found in thousands of everyday products—can cross a natural, protective layer that normally protects fetuses.
Due to the attractive properties in boosting light absorption, electron transport dynamics, and surface reactions, graphene (GR)—a single-layer carbon sheet with a hexagonally packed crystalline lattice—has shown promising potential in artificial photocatalysis.
Authors showed that two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) triggered trained immunity in macrophages derived from primary human monocytes.

For millennia, DNA has played a central role in storing each cell's genetic information and consists of strands with a specific sequence of four different building blocks. These DNA strands are copied by the cell at each cell division in an extremely well-orchestrated way, but amazingly, this sophisticated machinery is governed by very simple rules.
Drugmakers have been using genetically modified cells as small drug factories for over 40 years. These cells can be instructed to produce chemicals that can be utilized to treat cancer and autoimmune diseases like arthritis.
