Behavioural Assessment of Muscle Development by Downregulating Different Types of Integrins in Drosophila melanogaster
Abstract: Muscles play a major role in movement and diverse activities required for survival of an organism. In Drosophila, larval crawling and peristalsis are such kinds of rhythmic movements and are driven by muscle contractions. Larval crawling involves random walk on the solid surface whereas peristalsis involves one full body wall muscle contraction from anterior to posterior or in reverse direction in fluid. Accuracy in the development of muscles is an …

In vitro Antiviral Chemical Treatment to BBTV-Infected Banana Cultures for Production of Virus-Free Plants
Abstract: Obtaining healthy plants from infected germplasm banana stocks is a major problem. Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) is the most destructive pathogen for the banana crop. Production of virus-free plants is crucial for cultivation, germplasm conservation and their exchanges. In vitro shoot meristem culture is the most common method for producing disease-free planting material. However, BBTV can multiply with in vitro cultures too. Therefore, for eliminating BBTV, the shoot-tip culture …

Effect of Caffeic Acid on Glutathione Metabolism of MCF-7 and MDA MB-231 Breast Cancer Cells
Abstract: Increasing incidences of breast cancer at alarming rates with treatment strategies having an overall detrimental effect on the patients led to investigating the potential of phytochemicals as anti-tumorigenic agents. Caffeic acid, an antioxidant and anti-tumorigenic phytochemical, has been tested on MCF-7(hormone responsive) and MDA MB-231(hormone-independent) breast cancer cell lines. Alterations in the levels of intracellular glutathione (GSH) in both cell lines due to exposure to the drug are the primary …

A Review on Flexible Conductive Thermal Links for Space Applications
Abstract: The exponential growth of space technology can be credited to compact and crucial remote sensing payloads. These high performance devices require high degree of thermal control without any structural disturbance. Although, these devices are usually cooled by active cryocoolers which produce vibrations and rejects heat to the surroundings. A flexible conductive thermal link is introduced between the heat sink and remote sensing devices to eliminate vibration transmission and to provide …

Flavonoids Regulate Airway MUC5AC Mucin Expression through Modulation of Multiple Signalling Pathways
Abstract: Airway mucus is a component of pulmonary innate immune function and plays very important role in defense against invading pathogenic microbes, chemicals and particles. The protective function of airway mucus is attributed to the viscoelasticity of mucins. Mucins are large glycoproteins play important role in cell–cell adhesion, airways protection, Nuclear-factor kappa B signalling, epidermal growth factor receptor signalling. Eleven mucin genes (among twenty identified mucin genes) have been expressed at …

Flavonoids Attenuate Airway Mucin Expression, Production and Secretion Induced by Various Inducers
Abstract: Muco-obstructive respiratory disease is caused by changing normal biophysical properties of mucus including alteration of mucin concentration, ion composition and airway surface hydration. Flavonoids are one type of polyphenols which regulate mucin gene expression and consequently inhibit mucus secretion. Thus, this review aimed to discuss the effects of different flavonoids on regulation of various airways mucin gene expression and inhibition of the production of a major airway mucin core protein …
