Autologous platelet-rich products, such as platelet-rich plasma are used in many fields of clinical medicine to benefit from these effects. Platelet-rich products are ideally used in more than a single application, but repetitive harvesting of concentrated platelets is time-consuming and impractical for patients and clinicians. In order to maximize the utility of priorly made products and create a supply of patients’ own preparations, investigations of appropriate storage of platelet products have emerged. Recent explorations of hypothermic preservation, such as cryopreservation or freeze-drying have shown positive results, providing an efficient possibility of platelet-rich product storage retaining their growth factor, cytokine and chemokine activity.

Understanding how RNA binding proteins (RBPs) and RNA sequences determine the interactions to form RNPs and ultimately steer biomolecular processes remains poorly understood. There is a mounting evidence that RNP assembly de-pends on the formation of a network of transient, multivalent RBP RNA and RBP RBP interac-tions, particularly between tyrosine residues from intrinsically disordered domains and argi-nine residues from RNA-binding domains of RBPs. Furthermore, RBPs, especially their intrin-sically disordered regions, are hotspots for posttranslational modification (PTM) sites. Alt-hough PTMs have been well catalogued, little is known about how these modifications regulate RNP assembly and function. Some initial studies introduced the concept of the so-called phos-pho-switch, in which RBPs require phosphorylation for condensation of larger RNP complexes, but it remains unclear how this contributes to the protein function and the pattern of selective protein binding to RNA molecules. This short review will take a look at what is currently known in the field of RNPs, their interactions, and the phase-separated biomolecular conden-sates, which are intimately connected to RNPs and are important for several key cell processes.

Efficient markets have an important consequence – it is not possible for an investor to consistently outperform the market by using infor-mation that is not already reflected in the prices of securities. No matter how much re-sources one deploys into security analysis, no excess return can be made, which means that investors seeking higher returns must bear higher risk given the risk-return trade-off. Inefficient markets, on the other hand, offer investors opportunities for higher returns at the same risk profile. In this scientific contribution, we test seven emerging markets' stock indices for a weak form of market efficiency. Numerous previous research indicates that emerging markets are not fully efficient and that prices on their stock markets do not fol-low a random walk. We performed runs tests on weekly and monthly returns of stock in-dices and found statistically significant results in three indices for weekly and three in-dices for monthly returns, which indicates that these indices violate weak form of market efficiency. We found insignificant results, which indicate efficient markets, only for weekly and monthly returns on the Indian BSE Sensex 30 Index. Thus we come to similar conclusions as other authors that emerging markets persist to violate weak form of mar-ket efficiency and remain an attractive opportunity for investors seeking to exploit ineffi-ciencies.

For plant survival, it is, therefore, crucial to possess an effi-cient immune system, which in contrast to mammalian immunity, consists only of in-nate immunity. Traditionally, plant immunity is divided into two branches, i.e. pat-tern-triggered (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI), but the accumulating knowledge has shown that the division cannot be strictly maintained. ETI coevolves with pathogen e fector molecules, which can function in many different ways to escape plant immunity and damage plant cells. Among their targets is the plant plasma membrane, which repre-sents an important cell barrier. There are several different tactics to bypass this barrier, e.g. membrane perforation by proteins or peptides, which is an important and ubiqui-tously found mechanism of toxicity as well as self-defense in all kingdoms of life. It can be used to get specific molecules from cells, for signaling, or even to deliver effector mol-ecules into the cytoplasm. The exact knowledge on plant membrane perforation, howev-er, is lacking, and the hidden details still await to be unveiled.

Dental caries and periodon-tal diseases are among most prevalent diseases worldwide. According to WHO oral dis-eases affect nearly 3.5 billion people and untreated dental caries is the most common health condition. Young adults may neglect oral health. The aim of our study was to eval-uate oral health status (dental caries and periodontal diseases) among medical students at European University affiliated dental clinics in Georgia. Simple random sampling method was used. Assessment was conducted using modified WHO Oral Health Assessment Form (2013). Study sample were medical undergraduate students aged between 17 and 25 years at the European University - affiliated dental clinics, Tbilisi, Georgia. Level of dental caries was evaluated by assessment of decayed, missing, and filled teeth scores (DMFT in-dex), while periodontal status was assessed using Community Periodontal Index (CPI) modified index. Statistical analysis of data was performed. Results: Totally 225 students (150 males and 75 females) originally from Georgia, Jordan, Iran, Egypt, Great Britain and Sweden were included in the study. Mean age of participants was 20.7 years. Mean DMFT score in males was 3.11 and in females it was 3.25; overall mean DMFT was 3.18. Percentage of all individuals in two groups with dental caries (DFT ≥ 1) was 84%. Mean CPI index was 0.82 in males and 0.75 in females.
