Sagnik Nag, Amity University, Kolkata World Microbiome Day aims at an initiative to extend awareness of the microbiota, and unite all researchers and firms fascinated by the topic. Microbes have an incredible effect on the health and balance of the environment we board. Theme of World Microbiome Day 2021: This year we are celebrating the […]
Shrestha Dutta, Amity University Kolkata COVID-19 has brought about severe acute respiratory syndrome Covid 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has developed into a worldwide pandemic, and no antiviral therapies have been supported to date. The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) plays a key part in SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis as it permits viral passage into host cells. The study shows that […]
Komal Bavaskar, Mumbai university Gap junction structures were first discovered and characterized in 1953, due to the increased resolution of the transmission electron microscope. Bernard Katz and Ricardo Miledi used noise analysis to confirm the presence of ion channels in the 1970s. It was later shown more directly using an electrical recording technique known as […]
Sapataparna Dasgupta, Bennett University The explosive volcanoes in Indonesia are the most destructive ones in the world. The earth’s mantle offers new insights regarding the chemical composition of the minerals contained in the lava from Bali and Java. Thus, it can be inferred that based on the geographical location, the earth’s mantle provides new insights […]
Madhavi Bhatia, NIPER Guwahati. The gut flora of humans acts as a major factor that influences the health of an individual. The microbiome may affect the disease progression and response to immunotherapy. So, the gut microbiome can act as a cancer biomarker. For analyzing this high throughput 16S-rRNA-gene-based approach is utilized to detect a genuine […]
Shayan Ahmed, Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi Cancer stem cells (CSCs) have recently been discovered in a number of different cancers, including pancreatic cancers. These are called pancreatic cancer stem cells (PCSCs). Pancreatic cancer is a frequently occurring cancer with a bad prognosis. Evidence suggests that sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) has biological activities that contribute to […]
Ananya Ghosal, MAKAUT(WB) In the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, new information is showing us the path of the disease. Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS) is an example of a complication that is also described as a hyper-inflammatory syndrome, where the characteristics are the same as Kawasaki disease. From the publication of CDC, 27 adult cases were reported which […]
Kanikah Mehndiratta, MSc Introduction: Quantum computing can be considered a revolutionary and transformative technology that is coming but nowhere close yet, especially when it comes to biomedical research. The science of the living has always been intertwined with other areas, be it by studying biochemical properties, or use of biostatistics to quantify biological phenomena, or […]
Akash Singh, Banaras Hindu University Immune tolerance relies on FOXP3+ regulatory T (Treg) cells in humans. Their heterogeneity and distinction, on the other hand, have always been a point of contention. A Chinese research team has used single-cell RNA (scRNA) and T cell receptor sequencing to isolate Treg cells from healthy people and stem cell […]
Avani Dave, Jai Hind College The current technology can accurately prognosticate the ozone levels in the troposphere of the earth, just 3 days in advance. This seemed sufficient until technology took a leap, birthing the latest discovery that promises an accurate forecast around 2 weeks prior. The birthplace of this system was in The University […]
