Nimrit Palan, Mumbai University Cell division is the process by which a cell divides to produce new daughter cells by distributing its genetic material and cytoplasm. It is a component of the larger cell cycle and is involved in cell reproduction directly. Mitosis and meiosis are the two kinds of cell division seen in fully […]
Prama Ghosh, Amity University Kolkata A new mechanism to help scientists fight against COVID – 19 and find new treatments for the disease has been elaborated by a team of researchers at the University of Warwick. Movements in nearly 300 protein structures of the spike protein of the virus are simulated using computational modelling techniques, […]
Husna, Amity University Kolkata Aging is characterized by the progressive loss of physiological integrity which results in impaired body functions leading to a greater risk for diseases and death. This deterioration of the biological clock of our body is a major risk factor for several diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease. […]
Richismita Hazra, Amity University Kolkata Cells often manifest reversible changes in their properties and phenotypes which is known as cellular plasticity. This is also termed lineage plasticity or lineage switching. Cancer cells use this phenomenon to adapt to stressful conditions and this leads to cancer progression. Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is an aggressive variant of […]
Richismita Hazra, Amity University Kolkata Single-cell signaling responses are now measurable, but their interpretation is still restricted. Interpretation of dose-response based on single-cell data is also not accurately predictable. Here, probabilistic modeling and information-theory have been used to inaugurate fractional response analysis (FRA). This technique quantifies changes in the fraction of cells with provided response […]
AISHILA KAR, AMITY UNIVERSITY KOLKATA Cancer begins when cells in the body start to grow uncontrollably. The most important utility for the lung was maintaining a stream utilizing oxygen within the whole body. Lung cancer is a single hazardous problem, which might present in small and in the nonsmall cell too. But it is normally […]
Prama Ghosh, Amity University Kolkata Sepsis, a complication caused by dysregulation of the immune system causes around 11 million deaths every year in the world. Treatment includes antibiotics and organ support measures, but it fails many times due to unsuccessful attempts at modulating the immune response. Surviving the condition requires activation of resistance mechanisms which […]
-Richismita Hazra, Amity University Kolkata Antibodies serve as analytical barriers to viruses or viral infections. They play a dual role in communicating the existence of invading pathogens in infected cells, also, in interfering with the processes that are essential to the viral lifecycle. The antibodies activate phagocytes which is a potential mechanism of eradiating viruses. […]
