Perspectives on ‘Kamsaharitaki’: an Ayurvedic Formulation for COVID-19 related Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS)
Abstract: Background and Aim: Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptor (ACE2), together with Transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2), is a protein receptor for SARS-CoV-2 virus in the host subject; expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 reveals the multidimensional character of COVID-19 infection. SARS-CoV-2 Prominently induces pulmonary and systemic injury with other synergistic mechanisms. Preexisting chronic inflammatory conditions markedly sustain and aggravate the severity and cytokine storm. Inflammatory responses are closely linked with COVID-19 severity …

A Review on Proteolysis Rate in UHT Milk: Its Mechanism, Pattern, Assessment and Enzymatic Changes during Storage
Abstract: With the increasing awareness of people about food consumption, the demand of supplying aseptically packed food such as ultra-high temperature (UHT) milk is increasing. Some native and microbial proteases are relatively heat stable and cannot be inactivated during UHT treatment. The traces of these enzymes are responsible for various proteolytic changes (e.g. age-gelation and bitterness) in the stored UHT milk. There are various methods reported in the literature to measure …

Lonar Soda Lake: A Natural Habitat of the Industrially Important Diverse Alkaline Protease Producers
Abstract: Soda lakes, soda deserts and alkaline springs are the natural primary habitats for the occurrence of industrially important alkaline protease producers. Alkaline proteases are preferred for industrial use from the extreme alkaline habitats since the proteases from such habitats can withstand at high pH and thereby fulfill the current industrial need and global demand. In this scenario, we report the isolation and identification of 21 bacterial isolates from the Lonar …

Role of Protease in Virulence of Periodontal Bacteria
Abstract: Periodontitis is a polymicrobial, multifactorial disease with the most toxic protease that aids in emigration and the degradation of the host. Unattended bacterial contamination leads to periodontitis, and extreme gum problems may also bring about missing teeth and also bleeding. Major microorganisms associated with periodontitis are p.gingivalis, t. Forsythia, p.aeruginosa and t. Denticola. Virulence plays a major role in microbial contamination where different proteases released by microorganism aids in spreading …

Case Report on Nevirapine Induced Exfoliative Dermatitis
Abstract: Nevirapine is the first drug of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) class to treat seropositive patients, administered along with protease inhibitors and/or NRTIs. Nevirapine binds directly to reverse transcriptase (RT) and blocks the RNA-dependent and DNA-dependent polymerase enzyme. Exfoliative dermatitis is wide spread erythema and scaling of skin caused by pre-existing skin disorders, drugs and cancer, unknown causes. HIV infected patients are more prone to Exfoliative Dermatitis. This is a …

Development of Zinc Gluconate Vitamin C Effervescent Tablet for Immunity Improvement and Management of Corona Virus Disease (COVID-19)
Abstract: The global pandemic of coronavirus disease- 2019 (COVID-19) continues to pose a threat to people, societies, and economic and healthcare systems. COVID-19s progression and lethality are determine by the host immune system, as is the case with many other diseases. revolutionary idea that has been used to treat other diseases is the control of inflammatory response and cytokine production based on immunonutrition. Some COVID-19 clinical trials are now using zinc, …
