Biopolymer Degradation and Structure–Property Relationships in Ageing: A Polymer Science Perspective
Abstract: Ageing, as viewed from the polymer sciences perspective, is perceived as the gradual modification of the structure-property-function interrelationship of biopolymers such as proteins, polysaccharides, nucleic acids and their molecular aggregates. Such changes include structural organization, mechanical behavior, physicochemical stability and functional effectiveness. Ageing is an inevitable multifactorial polymeric process. Due to the growing aging population globally, more age-associated complications emerge, which are correlated with the molecular degeneration of biopolymeric complexes. …

MicroRNAs in Animal Behavior: Regulation of Memory and Decision-Making in Mammals
Abstract: MicroRNAs are small, non-coding RNA molecules that play a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. In recent years, their significance has extended beyond cellular development and disease regulation, as emerging evidence suggests they are critical mediators in complex behavioral processes, including learning, memory, and decision-making. This article explores the role of miRNAs in regulating neural plasticity and cognitive functions in mammals, emphasizing their involvement in memory formation and …
