Clay minerals or nanoclays are layered aluminosilicate nanoparticles with unique physicochemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, high surface area, lamellar structure, diverse ion-exchange capacity, tuneable surface chemistry enabling them to form different intermolecular interactions which offer supreme prospects for optimized pharmaceutical applications. This review article dives into the key characteristics of diffe...

Calcium (Ca 2+ ) is a universal signaling molecule that is tightly regulated, and a fleeting elevation in cytosolic concentration triggers a signal cascade within the cell, which is crucial for several processes such as growth, tolerance to stress conditions, and virulence in fungi. The link between calcium and calcium-dependent gene regulation in cells relies on the transcription factor Calcineurin-Responsive Zinc finger 1 (C...
