We have developed a method by which nuclear shells containing nucleoli can be isolated from membrane-depleted rat liver nuclei. This method involves the removal of the internal chromatin. This chromatin is expelled from the nuclear shell using combinations of low and high ionic strength buffers. The expelled internal part is subsequently digested with DNase I or micrococcal nuclease. Examination by electron microscopy of the nuclear and the nucleolar structures at various steps of the isolation procedure shows that the nucleoli are anchored in the peripheral lamina by a pedicle that is continuous with an intranucleolar network. This network is masked in situ by nucleolar granules. The pedicle and the network which support the nucleolar DNA are composed mainly of non-histone proteins insoluble in 2M NaCl.

Background: Guidelines recommend leaving in situ rectosigmoid polyps diagnosed during colonoscopy that are 5 mm or smaller if the endoscopist optically predicts them to be non-neoplastic. However, no randomised controlled trial has been done to examine the efficacy and safety of this strategy.
Methods: This open-label, multicentre, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial enrolled adults age 18 years or older undergoing colonoscopy for screening, surveillance, or clinical indications across four Italian centres.

Hyperelastic material characterization is crucial for sensing and understanding the behavior of soft materials-such as tissues, rubbers, hydrogels, and polymers-under quasi-static loading before failure. Traditional methods typically rely on uniaxial tensile tests, which require the cumbersome preparation of dumbbell-shaped samples for clamping in a uniaxial testing machine. In contrast, indentation-based methods, which are non-destructive and can be conducted without sample preparation, remain underexplored.

Despite considerable scientific advancements, there is an urgent need for sustainable, cost-effective, and efficient methods for chemically transforming CO into valuable chemicals. A stable heterogeneous platform is presented that incorporates four key innovations: 1) the first Tröger's base (TB) chemistry in solids via selective four-electron reductive functionalization of CO, 2) an effective heterogeneous organocatalyst for the chemoselective formylation of both NH and SH functionalities with CO, 3) a methodology for metal-free heterogeneous S-formylation of bioactive thiols, and 4) a direct covalent immobilization of CO-protected N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) on graphene oxide nanosheets (GONs). The CO-protected catalyst is developed by covalently attaching imidazole (Im) to GONs and functionalizing them with dimethyl carbonate.

Continuous advances have been witnessed in the booming of size variable nanosystems for molecular imaging and therapy. These nanosystems usually exhibit size transformation, which promotes optimized biodistribution, retention and penetration in lesions. Bioorthogonal reactions have been introduced as a useful tool to develop size variable nanosystems.
