    Abstract: Research on biomedical applications of nanomaterials has exhibited the rapidly evolving field of biomedical sciences by showing how effective they are in treatment. These particles hold considerable potential for biomedical applications. Work is ongoing, and the results suggest a possibility for a sustainable future for nanomaterials in both therapeutic and biomedical fields. This book highlights current and emerging applications, taking global research findings into consideration. We believe the focus on the identification and role of nanomaterial applications in therapeutic and biomedical sciences can lead to novel solutions in the fields.

    Description: Gold nanoparticles (AuNP's) facilitate cancer cell recognition and can be manufactured by green synthesis using nutrient rich medicinal plants such as Moringa oleifera (MO). Targeting dysregulated oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes is crucial for cancer therapeutics. Aim We investigated the antiproliferative effects of AuNP synthesised from MO aqueous leaf extracts (ML AuNP ) in A549 lung and SNO oesophageal cancer cells. Methods A one-pot green synthesis technique was used to synthesise ML AuNP . A549, SNO cancer cells and normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were exposed to ML AuNP and C AuNP to evaluate cytotoxicity (MTT assay); apoptosis was measured by phosphatidylserine (PS) externalisation, mitochondrial depolarisation (ΔΨm) (flow cytometry), caspase-3/7, -9 activity and ATP levels (luminometry). The mRNA expression of c-myc, p53, Skp2, Fbw7α and caspase-9 splice variants was determined using qPCR, whilst relative protein expression of c-myc, p53, SRp30a, Bax, Bcl-2, Smac/DIABLO, Hsp70 and PARP-1 were determined by western blotting. Results ML AuNP and C AuNP were not cytotoxic to PBMCs , whilst its pro-apoptotic properties were confirmed in A549 and SNO cells. ML AuNP significantly increased caspase activity in SNO cells while ML AuNP significantly increased PS externalisation, ΔΨm, caspase-9, caspase-3/7 activities and decreased ATP levels in A549 cells. Also, p53 mRNA and protein levels, SRp30a ( p  = 0.428), Bax, Smac/DIABLO and PARP-1 24kDa fragment levels were significantly increased. Conversely, ML AuNP significantly decreased Bcl-2, Hsp70, Skp2, Fbw7α, c-myc mRNA and protein levels and activated alternate splicing with caspase-9a splice variant being significantly increased. Conclusion ML AuNP possesses antiproliferative properties and induced apoptosis in A549 cells by activating alternate splicing of caspase-9. This article is protected by copyright.

    Description: Animals employing acoustic signals, such as birds, must effectively communicate over both background noise and potentially attenuating objects in the environment. To surmount these obstacles, animals evolve species-specific acoustic signals that do not overlap with sources of interference (such as songs of close relatives), and issue these songs from locations that maximize transmission. In multispecies assemblages of birds, the acoustic resource may thus be interspecifically partitioned along multiple axes, including song perch height and signal space. However, very few such studies have focused on open habitats, where differences in sound transmission patterns and limited availability of song perches may drive competition across multiple axes within signal space. Here, we demonstrate acoustic signal space partitioning in four sympatric species of wren-warbler (Cisticolidae, Prinia), in an Indian dry deciduous scrub-grassland habitat. We found that the breeding songs of the four species partition acoustic signal space, resulting in interspecific community organization. Within each species’ signal space, we uncovered different intraspecific patterns in note diversity. Two species partition intraspecific signal space into multiple note types, whereas the other two vary note repetition rate to different extents. Finally, we found that the four species also partition song perch heights, thus exhibiting acoustic niche separation along multiple axes. We hypothesize that divergent song perch heights may be driven by competition for higher singing perches or other ecological factors rather than signal propagation. Acoustic signal partitioning along multiple axes may therefore arise from a combination of diverse ecological processes.

    Description: Birds produce diverse acoustic signals, with coexisting species occupying distinct “acoustic niches” to minimize masking, resulting in overdispersion within acoustic space. In tropical regions of the world, an influx of migrants from temperate regions occurs during winter. The effects of these migrants on acoustic community structure and dynamics remain unstudied. Here, I show that in a tropical dry forest bird community occurring within an urban area in India, the influx of winter migrants is accompanied by a change in species composition of the acoustic community. However, in spite of this, the acoustic community remains overdispersed in acoustic niche space. The winter community of vocal birds at this study site additionally exhibits lower energy in the 4–7 kHz frequency bands (consistent with species singing less continuously), as well as lower phylogenetic diversity. My data are thus indicative of seasonal turnover in acoustic communities but suggest that acoustic niches and community structure are stable across seasons. Migrants occupy similar regions of acoustic space as residents and are relatively closely related to some of these species. Their arrival, therefore, leads to greater phylogenetic clustering in the winter and thus lower phylogenetic diversity, although the acoustic community remains overdispersed. Studying seasonal dynamics of acoustic communities thus provides valuable insight into assembly processes, as well as a potential framework for long-term monitoring of urban ecosystems.
