Natural and synthetic pesticide and their effect on life
Abstract: Natural and synthetic pesticides both play roles in pest control but differ significantly in their impact on life and the environment. Natural pesticides, often derived from plants and microorganisms, are biodegradable, eco-friendly, and generally exhibit lower toxicity to non-target organisms and humans. Synthetic pesticides, while highly effective in pest control and used extensively in conventional agriculture, tend to have greater toxicity, persist longer in the environment, and pose more significant …

Stingless Honeybee’s Rare Sugar and PCSK 9 - LDLR Interaction, A New Hope for Hormone Dependent Breast Cancer Patients – An In-silico Study
Abstract: Hypercholesterolemia is a lipid disorder characterized by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), commonly known as "bad" cholesterol. This condition is a significant risk factor in the development and progression of hormone-dependent breast cancer, as well as in the emergence of resistance to hormonal therapy. One of the key regulators of cholesterol metabolism is the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type-9 (PCSK9) protein, which facilitates the degradation of the LDL receptor (LDLR) …
