Highly contagious respiratory infection diseases such as COVID-19 can be transmitted by inhaling virus laden liquid droplets and short-range aerosols, released by an infected person. Particularly, in hospitals, spraying of the respiratory droplets containing pathogens from the conjunctiva or mucus of a susceptible person plays a key role in transferring the infectious diseases. N95 filtering respirators are a critical personal protective equipment.

Background: Pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs) are specialized airway epithelial cells with dual sensory and secretory functions. They release bioactive mediators --including neuropeptides such as calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP), and neurotransmitters such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) --that regulate airway smooth-muscle tone, mucus production, and immune responses. In chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), these PNEC-derived mediators contribute to airway inflammation, remodeling, and smooth-muscle dysfunction.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome is a highly prevalent, multifaceted endocrinopathy among reproductive women. Current therapies have limited therapeutic success and compliance owing to multiple complications. Here, we developed MPPs-Gel formulation for efficient targeted intravaginal delivery that addresses the complementary mechanism of insulin resistance and other associated disorders.

Individuals travelling to elevated altitudes are at a greater risk of developing acute mountain sickness and gastrointestinal problems due to hypoxic conditions. Exposure to high altitude hypoxia may result in injury that compromises intestinal barrier integrity, leading to increased permeability, inflammation and impaired nutrient absorption. Early detection of hypoxia induced gastrointestinal barrier injury is crucial for preventing complications such as sepsis, multiple organ failure and potentially fatal gastrointestinal bleeding.
