Demodex spp. (Acari: Demodicidae) Infestation in Humans: Diagnostic Clues and Therapeutic Approaches to Primary and Secondary Demodicosis.
Abstract: Demodicosis represents an inflammatory dermatosis and adnexal disorder arising from pathologic overgrowth of Demodex mites, primarily Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis, which are ubiquitous human ectoparasites residing in pilosebaceous units and eyelid margins. Once regarded as benign commensals, these mites are now recognized as primary drivers or key cofactors in diverse clinical phenotypes, including papulopustular eruptions, pityriasis folliculorum, rosacea-like disorders, blepharitis, meibomian gland dysfunction, and exacerbations of comorbid dermatoses such …

Investigating mosquito innate immune defence mechanism towards malaria vaccine development
Abstract: Mosquito-borne diseases weigh heavily on public health across the globe. The mosquito’s innate immune system certainly decides whether malaria parasites survive inside the vector, and that sighted it as a logical place to discover new vaccine ideas. In this review, we examine how Anopheles mosquitoes defend themselves against Plasmodium parasites and how those defenses could be turned into tools for malaria control. We focus on three layers of immunity: antimicrobial …

Systematic Review on: Peptic Ulcer and Its Management
Abstract: Peptic ulcer disease (PUD), which affects 5–10% of people worldwide, is still a significant global health concern. Gastric acid and pepsin's corrosive effects cause mucosal injury in the stomach, duodenum, or lower oesophagus. Long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and Helicobacter pylori infection are the primary reasons. This review's goal is to examine PUD's aetiology, risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical symptoms, diagnostic methods, and evidence-based treatment modalities. PubMed, Google Scholar, …

Interaction of Mosquito’s hppd Enzyme with Lansoprazole Sulfide A New Hope to Tackle the Mosquito Menace – an in-Silico Study
Abstract: Tyrosine detoxification is an important physiological process that helps blood-feeding insects, such as mosquitoes that transmit Plasmodium parasites causing malaria, digest their blood meals. An enzyme known as 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), which is part of the tyrosine detoxification pathway, helps in removing excess tyrosine in a high-protein blood meal. Excess tyrosine can be lethal to the insects, and hence, the role of HPPD enzyme is very critical. Inhibitors of HPPD …
