Description

Application

• ZMYND8 Is a Regulator of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in ATRA-Mediated Differentiation of Neuroblastoma Cells.: This study reveals the role of ZMYND8, a zinc-binding protein, in regulating Sonic Hedgehog signaling during the differentiation of neuroblastoma cells. This research enhances the understanding of zinc′s involvement in critical cellular processes and its potential in therapeutic applications for neuroblastoma (Guha et al., 2024).
• Mechanistic insight into the anti-alternaria activity of bimetallic zinc oxide and silver/zinc oxide nanoparticles.: This research provides a detailed mechanistic insight into the antimicrobial properties of bimetallic zinc oxide nanoparticles. The study highlights zinc′s role in developing effective antimicrobial agents, which could be pivotal in addressing fungal infections and improving food safety (Daniel et al., 2024).
• Bio-fabricated zinc oxide nanoparticles mediated by endophytic fungus Aspergillus sp. SA17 with antimicrobial and anticancer activities: in vitro supported by in silico studies.: The study focuses on the biosynthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles using endophytic fungi and their dual antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The findings demonstrate the potential of zinc-based nanomaterials in medical applications, particularly in developing new cancer therapies (Abdelrahman et al., 2024).
• Genome-wide analysis of filamentous temperature-sensitive H protease (ftsH) gene family in soybean.: This article explores the role of zinc in the functioning of the ftsH gene family in soybeans, crucial for plant stress responses and development. The research provides insights into zinc′s role in agricultural biotechnology, enhancing crop resilience and productivity (Wang et al., 2024).
