The epidemic of COVID-19 provides various issues for healthcare professionals. Rapid assessment and treatment, vulnerability classification, efficient use of critical care facilities, adequate medications, surveillance, and prompt discharge, are crucial to protect as many casualties as possible. We described different classification techniques of ML (machine learning) to analyze skin-related issues. This research aims to provide adequate skin specialists with a strategic plan to understand that they may diagnose its prospects and problems. In this work, we use well-known ML methods, including DT (Decision Tree), LR (Logistic Regression), SVM (Support Vector Machines), KNN (K Nearest Neighbor), and multi-model (Gradient, gaussian nave bias, XGB, SGD), classification methods. Make an intelligent diagnostic assistant to correctly identify a certain kind of allergy...

Antibacterial activity of methanolic extracts of different parts (leaves, flowers, green pods and roots) of Moringa oleifera plant were evaluated against gram positive bacteria Bacillus subtilis (Bs), Staphylococcus aureus (Sa) and gram negative bacteria Klebsiella pneumonia (Kp), Escherichia coli (Ec), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa). The activities were performed by the agar well diffusion and cup plate method, with methanol as the negative and tetracycline as a positive control. Secondary metabolites extracted from all the parts of M. oleifera were found active against bacteria. Furthermore, the antimicrobial activity of the mentioned plant extracts was also examined against various gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains. It was observed that against K. pneumonia, leaves extracts (17.6 mm) of M. oleifera possess higher antibacterial activity as compared to others, flower extract (19.2mm) against B. subtilis, leaves extracts (22.6 mm) more effective against E. coli, pod extracts (22.5 mm) against S. aureus and leaf extract (21.9 mm) showed against P. aeruginosa as compared to others. The results reveal that M. oleifera might be a potential source...

The continuous search to search for a naturally occurring medicinal compound that could be a suitable adjunct to existing therapies for treating one of the growing global health emergencies in diabetes is a never-ending one. Naringenin [2, 3-dihydro-5, 7-dihydroxy- 2 -(4-hydroxyphenyl) -4H-1-benzopyran-4-one], a naturally occurring flavonoid abundantly present in grapes, grapefruit, and citrus fruits have been found to confer different pharmacological activities. Thus, keeping its potential medicinal properties in mind, our aim of the study was an in-depth study of intraperitoneal treatment of naringenin, especially at the levels of oxidants, lipidemic activities, and anti-apoptotic activity in tissues such as the heart and brain, so that it could be better evaluated as a potential therapeutic agent. Our study demonstrates that naringenin treatment reduced hyperglycemia-inducedoxidative stress by activating various intracellular anti-oxidant enzymes and preventing apoptosis by initiating the translocation of Bcl-2 to the mitochondria, partially affecting the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c to the cytoplasm and preventing the activation of caspase-3 and caspase-9, thus preventing cell death. The transmission electron microscopic...

Leukemia is a disease of cancer that affects blood-forming tissues i.e., bone marrow and lymph nodes, which is associated with uncontrolled growth of WBCs. These cells are unable to fight against infection and weaken the ability of bone marrow to make RBCs and platelets. When leukemic cells overproduce, they interfere in circulatory cells’ functioning, i.e., RBCs and platelets. Along this, leukemia’s pathogenesis is unique in relation to different malignant growths which ordinarily start in major organs and then spread in bone marrow. Different types of leukemia are discovered based on different classification systems with the two major leukemia types – acute and chronic. The work includes the 50-year history of leukemia-lymphoma cell lines, which is considered a key model system in biomedicine. The work involves finding suitable protein receptors for the available potent drugs. Protein receptors are the target sites where drug molecules bind, activate and start their response. FLT3 tyrosine kinase protein is taken as a receptor to study docking concerning ligands like Abacavir, Gabapentin, etc. Autodock and...

Background: The infectious disease, COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), is hardly showing signs of waning as it is still ongoing as a pandemic. Objective: To figure out potential leads from Ocimum sanctum and Plectranthus amboinicus’s phytoconstituents against SARS-CoV-2. Methodology: Selected phytoconstituents of O. sanctum and P. amboinicus were targeted on the PDB protein sequences of SARS-CoV-2 like 6W02, 4M0W, and 7T9L and were subjected to docking simulations using Pymol and the Autodock Vina tool of version 1.5.6. Hydrogen bond interactions and the amino acid residues of the targeted protein sequences were analyzed. ADME and drug-likeness predictions of the best dock-scored phytochemicals were further screened using the online tool molinspiration. Result: Out of 14 phytochemicals, only 9 had significant interactive profiles, of which Carvacrol, Eugenol, Apigenin, Luteolin, and Rosmarinic acid could potentially inhibit the targets of coronavirus. Only these five chemicals obey the ADME limitations and drug-likeness LogP values. Apigenin and Rosmarinic acid had better interactions at the active site of all three protein targets....
