In-Silico Docking of Rubia cordifolia Phytocompounds as Potential MMP-2 Inhibitors for Varicose Vein Management
Abstract: Varicose veins are one of the most common disorders, affecting the vein structure and function of lower limbs, yet there has been no absolute cure found yet. One of the underlying causes for worsening of the condition is the proteolytic activity of MMPs which are a group of enzymes that affect the extracellular matrix (ECM) surrounding the affected veins. Phytocompounds of Rubia cordifolia (Manjishta) were docked against the MMP-2 protein …

A Review of Properties of Geopolymer Concrete
Abstract: The growing need for concrete around the world has led to both more concrete being made and more of it being used. Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere when regular Portland cement is made, which contributes to global warming (OPC). because concrete that is good for the environment needs new kinds of binders. Using different binders could cut down on the energy needed to make traditional concrete and the …

Fabrication of Polydimethylsiloxane Composites with Nickel Nanoparticles: Unification and Current–Voltage Relationship
Abstract: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)–nickel nanoparticle (NiNPs) nanocomposite films were fabricated and systematically investigated to understand their electrical transport behavior through current–voltage (I–V) characterization. Nanocomposite films with varying Ni nanoparticle filler concentrations (14.88 wt%, 15.77 wt%, and 16.65 wt%) were prepared using a solution-mixing and spin-coating technique, followed by controlled thermal curing. The electrical properties of both pristine PDMS and PDMS– NiNPs nanocomposites were examined over a wide voltage range (up to 800 …

The Role of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase in Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Therapeutic Insights and Future Directions
Abstract: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disorders (NAFLD) are defined by the accumulation of excess fat in the liver that has no other cause, such as drinking alcohol. Pyruvate dehydrogenase has been established as an alternative treatment for this disorder. NAFLD pathogenesis is complex and includes oxidative stress inflammatory processes and mitochondrial dysfunction. Impaired liver fatty acid oxidation and glucose oxidation are significant individuals in developing NAFLD, and strategies to reverse these defects …

Drug Screening Using Stem Cell Technology
Abstract: Stem cell technology in drug screening has transformed the research and development sector of pharmaceuticals. Although stem cells imitate their human counterparts in terms of both safety and potential, it is a new paradigm for mimicking diseases of humans and scale measuring for toxicity. These tissues will, therefore, be more predictive of what will happen in humans during clinical situations, compared to conventional cell lines or animal models, since they …

Role of Artificial Intelligence in Simulation and Therapeutics in Neurodegenerative Diseases
Abstract: Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, etc., are a cause of significant mortality rates due to a lack of curative treatments and their complex nature. Traditional therapeutic methodologies have several disadvantages such as slow diagnosis and a lack of effective treatments. They mainly focused on the management of the disease rather than curing it. The integration of artificial intelligence in the simulation and therapeutics of neurodegenerative …

Homeopathy and Miasms: Exploring Their Vital Importance
Abstract: An individual’s susceptibility to disease is not solely an internal matter but is also profoundly shaped by a variety of external influences. These influences can be broadly categorized into meteoric factors – such as climate, weather changes, seasonal variations, and atmospheric conditions – and telluric factors, which include environmental and terrestrial elements like soil, water, living conditions, and geographical surroundings. When such external influences act upon the human organism, they …
