ABSTRACT

Cervical cancer (CC) is acknowledged as the most ubiquitous carcinoma among females along with the utmost prevalence in developing nations. The major cause of CC is HPV exposure, especially HPV16 and 18. Inflammation is linked to the carcinogenesis of CC in addition to HPV infection. Although the precise cause of CC is yet unknown, using oral contraceptives, being immunosuppressed, and smoking may enhance the risk of the disease. Oxidative stress (OS), in addition to HPV, is linked to cervical cancer. Across several clinical and preclinical research, the dysfunctional redox system and the impact of oxidative stress throughout the aetiology of CC have been examined. Redox homeostasis must therefore be maintained, which calls for both enzymatic and nonenzymatic redox regulators. In this study, we explored the therapeutic strategies used to preserve redox balance, lower cervical cancer mortality, and illustrate the contribution of oxidative stress in the aetiology of the disease

ABSTRACT

Aflatoxins are toxins produced by the fungus Aspergillus parasiticus and Aspergillus flavus. They are colorless, cannot be detected under normal light, odorless and contaminated foods most often do not have any special or bad smell. Environmental factors such as the temperature, and vectors causing grain damage have an important effect on favoring the colonization of fungus and the production of aflatoxins. They contaminate agriculture products worldwide affecting their quality, safety & security. The effects on safety & security cause health threats among people and animals on their long-term exposure through consumption because they are mutagenic, teratogenic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic. Humans and animals can develop the disease known as aflatoxicosis as a result of aflatoxins known as Acute and Chronic primary aflatoxicosis. Aflatoxins' long-term effects have been shown to decrease normal immune response also it can cause growth retardation in babies and affect nutritional deficiency. It can disrupt such enzymes that can affect hormones, endocrine glands, and neurotransmitters which may influence a person's cognitive abilities, memory, and learning, restlessness, muscular tremors, seizures, absentmindedness, tremors, uncoordinated movement of muscles, and aberrant agitation are caused by deficiencies in the neurotransmitters. Aflatoxin toxicity in humans can range from acute or chronic conditions to liver damage such as liver carcinoma, internal bleeding, edema, and instant death. Acute toxicosis can cause gastrointestinal dysfunctions in humans and animals. Aflatoxins have been shown to have detrimental negative impacts on vascular fragility and cardiovascular health, tissue bleeding, and teratogenic consequences. According to reports, aflatoxins have severe and detrimental impacts mostly on the respiratory systems it can also cause lung cancer.

ABSTRACT

The pandemic of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID19) has compelled scientists to create highly reliable diagnostic tools quickly in order to successfully and properly diagnose this pathology and thereby prevent infection transmission. Even though structural and molecular properties of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV2) were previously unknown, private research institutes and biomedical firms quickly developed numerous diagnostic procedures beneficial for making a correct detection of COVID19. Rapid antigen or antibody testing, immunoenzymatic serological tests, and RT-PCR based molecular assays are the most frequently used and validated procedures now available. The PCR has grown in popularity in molecular diagnostics to the point where it is still considered the gold standard for finding nucleotides from a variety of sources becoming an indispensable tool in the research lab. Because of its improved speed, sensitivity, reproducibility, and lower likelihood of carry-over contamination, real-time PCR has gained greater popularity. Currently, five different chemistries are employed to detect PCR product during real-time PCR. The self- fluorescing amplicons, DNA binding fluorophores, 5? endonuclease, neighbouring linear and hairpin oligoprobes, and self-fluorescing amplicons are all detailed in depth. We also go through the problems that have hampered the development of multiplex real-time PCR and the importance of real-time PCR in nucleic acid quantification.

ABSTRACT

The evolutionary origin of murine line based on a phylogenetic tree made on sequence data of ∝-and β-hemoglobin chains, followed by the diversity spectrum of hemoglobin genes in two wild species of murine rodents: Rattus rattus rufescens (house rat) and Bandicota indica (bandicoot rat) has been reported. Each house rat contains six hemoglobin types involving two ∝-and three β-chains, which suggests a probable gene duplication at the ∝ chain locus and a gene triplication at the β-chain locus. Each bandicoot rat contains one ∝-and two β-chains suggesting a probable gene duplication at the β-chain locus. Peptide pattern analysis of the polypeptide chains of these murine hemoglobins further indicates that intraspecies differences among duplicated chains of the same kind are less than interspecies differences among corresponding ∝- and β-chains.
