Article Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) have proven to be a game-changer in agriculture, showcasing their potential to boost plant growth and safeguarding crops. The agricultural sector has widely adopted NMs, benefiting from their small size, high surface area, and optical properties to augment crop productivity and provide protection against various stressors. This is attributed to their unique characteristics, contributing to their widespread use in agriculture. Human exposure from various components of agro-environmental sectors (soil, crops) NMs residues are likely to upsurge with exposure paths may stimulates bioaccumulation in food chain. With the aim to achieve sustainability, nanotechnology (NTs) do exhibit its potentials in various domains of agriculture also have its flip side too. In this review article we have opted a fusion approach using bibliometric based analysis of global research trend followed by a holistic assessment of pros and cons i.e. toxicological aspect too. Moreover, we have also tried to analyse the current scenario of policy associated with the application of NMs in agro-environment.

We previously proposed a Vertical Attention Bias (VAB) that directs attention toward object tops and scene bottoms and robustly confirmed this effect in both adults and 4- to 7-year-old children. Our past findings are consistent with progressive ecological theory, and support that our perceptual biases are coupled to informative environmental regularities. This leads observers to generally favor a downward gaze to facilitate attending more to functionally and behaviorally relevant locations.

Flippases, a functionally distinct group of transmembrane proteins that flip lipids from the extracellular or luminal side to the cytosolic side of biological membranes, are key players in many important physiological processes, such as membrane trafficking and cellular signaling. To study the function of these membrane proteins under chemically defined conditions, reconstituting them into artificial vesicles is a crucial and effective approach. There are various methods for protein reconstitution involving different detergents and detergent removal techniques to integrate membrane proteins into artificial vesicles.

Left bundle branch area pacing has been a breakthrough in pacing therapy and is being increasingly adopted. It delivers a more physiological form of pacing compared with right ventricular and biventricular pacing and also avoids the risk of perforation of the ventricular free wall. However, the therapy comes at the price of new complications related to the transseptal route for placing the lead.

Background: The locus coeruleus (LC) is a key noradrenergic nucleus of the brain. Its dysfunction is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, as well as in psychiatric disorders. However, imaging the LC with sufficient contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) is challenging due to its small size and deep location in the brainstem.

Expanded centromeric satellite repeats can violate Mendel's law of segregation by preferentially segregating to the egg. In mice, these selfish centromeres enrich microtubule destabilizers at pericentromeres to detach from the spindle and flip toward the egg side of the meiotic spindle, thereby achieving preferential segregation. However, despite the consistent enrichment of destabilizers upon centromere expansion, such enrichment alone is insufficient to drive the preferential retention of expanded centromeres, suggesting a missing component in understanding their non-Mendelian segregation.
