FLOWERS – THE NOBLE ROLE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, PLENTIFUL, BUT NEGLECTED BIO-RESOURCE IN INDIA

The Greek words “angeion” (vessel) and “sperma” (seed) constitute angiosperm which together define enclosed seeds. The angiosperms differ from closely related gymnosperms in seed being naked and not enclosed within a fruit. Moreover, angiosperms are distinguished plants having colorful flowers. Having originated about 130 million years ago, the flowering plants are more diverse and largest...

MUCORMYCOSIS – AN EPIDEMIC IN A PANDEMIC: A COMPLICATION OF COVID-19

Mycosis is an opportunistic infection that attacks patients who are immunocompromised. Our immune system is designed to defend us against fungus and bacteria. The fungus can expand, penetrate and kill tissue because it lacks immunity. It's everywhere, in soil and air and even in healthy people's noses and snot, says the researcher. “As we work to defend ourselves from COVID-19 and live with it, ...

STUDY OF ACAT RECEPTOR WITH HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS FOR DRUG DESIGNING

ACAT enzyme is found in human body and it maintains cholesterol homeostasis in the cell. This leads to deposition of cholesterol in our body as cholesteryl esters. Freely deposited cholesterol in the membranes of the cells is cytotoxic. This deposition causes atherosclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Xanthelasma, etc. The first substrate for ACAT is both medium & long fatty acyl CoA. Therefore, ...
