Neuroregeneration is a dynamic process synergizing the functional outcomes of multiple signaling circuits. Channelrhodopsin-based optogenetics shows feasibility stimulating neural repair but does not pin down specific cascades. Here, we utilized optogenetic systems, optoRaf and optoAKT, to delineate contribution ERK AKT pathways neuroregeneration in live Drosophila larvae. We showed that or optoAKT activation only enhanced axon regeneration both regeneration-competent -incompetent sensory...
Copper nanoparticles demonstrate antibacterial activity, but their toxicity to eukaryotic systems is less understood. Here, we carried out a comparative study determine the biocompatibility and cytotoxicity of sub-10 nm copper variety biological systems, including prokaryotic cells (Escherichia coli), yeast, mammalian cell lines (HEK293T, PC12), zebrafish embryos. We determined bearing threshold for cell-death-inducing concentration by probing growth, viability, as well embryological...
