HIV-1 Clade C (Subtype C; HIV-1C) is responsible for greater than 50% of infections worldwide. Unlike clade B B; HIV-1B), which known to cause HIV associated dementia (HAD) in approximately 15% 30% the infected individuals, HIV-1C has been linked with lower prevalence HAD (0 6%) India and Ethiopia. However, recent studies report a higher South Africa, Zambia Botswana, where predominate. Therefore, we examined whether Southern African genetically distinct investigated its neurovirulence. Tat...
Background:: The plasma virome represents the overall composition of viral sequences present in it. Alteration has been reported treatment naïve and immunocompromised (CD4 count < 200) people with HIV (PWH). However, effect ART on PWH preserved CD4 counts is poorly understood. Objective:: We aimed to assess alterations comparison HIV-negative uninfected controls further investigate possible associations viruses inflammation immune dysfunction, namely, immunosenescence exhaustion....
The present world is facing problems with a wide variety of pollutants.Water pollution major global problem.It has been suggested that it the leading worldwide cause deaths and diseases accounts for more than 14,000 people daily in Lucknow Capital Uttar Pradesh India.Nitrate Nitrite one groundwater's most commonly identified contaminants, an indicator serious as they are associated septic waste agricultural endeavours, leads to numerous health human beings animals.4rural areas were selected...
The "early-burst" model of adaptive radiation predicts an early increase in phenotypic disparity concurrent with lineage diversification. Although most studies report a lack this coupled pattern, the underlying processes are not identified. continental Hemidactylus geckos from Peninsular India includes morphologically diverse species that occupy various microhabitats. This began diversifying ~36 Mya Here, we test hypothesis by investigating presence ecomorphs and examining pattern...
Rashtrapati Bhavan Estates is a large semi-natural area comprising significant patches of secondary forest, cultivation, wetlands and parks in the heart Delhi, capital city India. An inventory herpetofauna was undertaken from May 15 to July 31, 2015, which revealed four species amphibians eight reptiles. One reptilian species—Striped Keelback—was new record for Delhi region. In addition, records presence five snake were obtained. Given paucity published data on natural history national...
Contamination of soils, groundwater, sediments, surface water, and air with hazardous toxic chemicals is one the major problems facing industrialized world today.Contaminated land water generally result from past industrial activities when awareness health environmental effects connected production, use, disposal substances were less well recognized than today.Heavy metals are a dangerous group soil pollutants.Among heavy Pb, Cd As considered potentially important pollutants due to their...
