Repurposing of existing cancer drugs to overcome their physical limitations, such as insolubility, represents an attractive strategy achieve enhanced therapeutic efficacy and broaden the range clinical applications. Such approach also promises offer substantial cost savings in drug development efforts. Here we repurposed FDA-approved topical agent bexarotene (Targretin), currently limited use for cutaneous manifestations T-cell lymphomas, re-engineer it solid tumor applications by forming...

The study was conducted to detect the occurrence and phenotypic resistance pattern of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae in livestock using docking based analysis reveal classes antibiotics against which ESBL-producers are active. Rectal swabs from healthy cattle (n=100), goats (n=88), pigs (n=66) were collected backyard farms Andaman Nicober island (India). In total, 304 isolates comprising E. coli (131), Salmonella (75), Klebsiella penumoniae (98) recovered. showed that highest found...
To improve our knowledge on host-parasite interaction, the study was undertaken Rhipicephalus microplus infestation in cross breed cattle. This tick, being a voracious blood sucker, remains attached to skin for prolonged period and inoculates saliva during feeding. Biomolecules present have detrimental effects host system. The deals with of R. artificially infected nine months old cattle 21 days. There physiological alteration tick terms body temperature, pulse, respiration rate. drop...
Nephrotic syndrome, a primarily paediatric disease, is associated with high relapse rate. Studies have reported behavioral and psychological difficulties in children nephrotic their caregivers siblings, factor that likely to influence the overall outcome of disease an adverse manner. In clinical practice, however, psychosocial aspects care may be overlooked pressure treat process, unless importance stressed by appropriate evidence.The study aims assess prevalence behavior abnormalities...
Here, we report the therapeutic potential of a natural quinazoline derivative (2-chloro-6-phenyl-8H-quinazolino[4,3-b]quinazolin-8-one) isolated from marine sponge Hyrtios erectus against human breast cancer. The cytotoxicity compound was investigated on carcinoma cell line (MCF-7). Antiproliferative activity estimated by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. MTT assay showed significant inhibition MCF-7 cells viability with IC50 value 13.04 ± 1.03 µg/mL...
The aim of the present study was to isolate and characterize goat embryonic stem cell-like cells from in vitro produced embryos. Inner cell mass (ICM) were isolated either mechanically or by enzymatic digestion 150 blastocysts 35 hatched whereas 100 morulae used for blastomeres isolation mechanically. ICM derived cultured on a feeder layer. primary colony formation significantly higher (P < 0.01) (77.14%) than early/expanded (54%) morula (14%). When ICMs (90%) as well (66%) more when (60%...
Abstract Cancer stem cells are known to be controlled by pathways that dormant in normal adult cells, for example, PTEN, which is a negative regulator of transcription factor STAT3. STAT3 regulates genes involved cell self-renewal and thus represents novel therapeutic target enormous clinical significance. Studies on breast cancer (BCSC) have been also significantly correlated with STATs. We describe here the first time strategy selectively CSCs induce downregulation downstream reducing...
Background and Objectives: Neonatal hypoglycemia, a common metabolic problem, often goes unnoticed owing to lack of specific symptoms. We designed this study assess the incidence hypoglycemia in healthy normal birth weight low babies, including both preterm small for gestational age (SGA) newborns, evaluate impact early breastfeeding on exclusive breast feeding glucose values up 48 h age. Design Settings: A hospital-based prospective longitudinal study. Materials Methods: The was conducted...
Domestic ducks are of paramount importance as a cheap source protein in rural India. Andaman local duck (ALD) is an indigenous avian genetic resource and Nicobar islands (ANI) mainly distributed Middle Northern parts these islands. Negligence has brought this breed on the edge extinction necessitating immediate conservation efforts. Here, we report diversity, population structure matrilineal root ALD. Partial mtDNA D-loop sequences were analyzed 71 ALD samples analysis revealed 19...
Mothers and children are biologically related dependent. They should be considered as a single unit which is very important regarding adherence to anti-retroviral therapy (ART). Very high levels of required for effective ART. We therefore carried out this study examine the different factors associated with among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive mothers their HIV-positive receiving ART.A hospital-based cross-sectional study.Ninety-four 94 under ART attending center tertiary care...

Materials methods A total 199 cloacal swabs were collected five poultry breeds/varieties (broiler,...
The present study evaluates the effect of dietary zinc supplementation on reproductive and productive performance Teressa goat, an indigenous species ofAndaman Nicobar Islands.Eighteen female goats were randomly divided into 3 groups 6 animals each; (A) control with basal ration without any (B) Treatment 1 supplemented 50 ppm oxide (C) 2 100 oxide.Different parameters, e.g.numbers days to oestrus, incidence pregnancy rate, kidding rates weight kids recorded.Data indicated that different...
Objective: To investigate the effect of Moringa oleifera leaf extract on semen quality parameters in Teressa goat buck. Methods: A total 25 samples from six bucks were selected for study. Spermatozoa 150× 10 6 incubated 0, 300, 500 and 700 μg as group I, II, III IV, respectively. Liquid stored analysed motility, viability, sperm abnormalities, plasma membrane, acrosomal nuclear integrities, seminal intracellular enzymes [aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine (ALT) lactate dehydrogenase...
