First Insights into Whole Genome Sequencing of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex: Molecular Diversity and Drug Susceptibility Patterns in Senegal
Abstract: Background: We conducted a bibliographic analysis of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) in sub-Saharan Africa, which included the analysis of 8,139 genomic sequences from 34 of the 49 sub-Saharan African countries. Notably, only one complete sequence from Senegal was identified, which had been generated in the United States. Our primary objective was to utilize whole genome sequencing (WGS) to detect resistance in anti-tuberculous strains of the MTBC in Senegal. This …

Screening of Pharmaceutically Significant Methioninase-Producing Fungi from the Satpura Range of Hoshangabad District and Its Large-Scale Production
Abstract: L-methioninase, an enzyme with notable anticancer properties, has emerged as a promising therapeutic agent due to its ability to selectively degrade methionine, a critical amino acid for the survival of methionine-dependent cancer cells. Methionine dependency, observed in many tumor cells, is a metabolic vulnerability that can be exploited for targeted cancer therapy. The Satpura Range in the Narmadapuram District, India, with its diverse microbial ecosystems, offers a rich reservoir for …

In vitro Demonstration of Biofilm Formation on Catheter Materials by Candida Species Isolated from Blood Stream Infections
Abstract: In recent years, a progressive increase in the frequency of nosocomial candidaemia has been observed. Candidaemia due to vascular catheters are on the rise. There are many associated risk factors such as the type of patient, catheter location, frequency of change of cannulae, duration of catheterization, etc. Candida species produce biofilms on synthetic materials, which facilitate adhesion of the organisms to devices and render them relatively refractory to medical therapy. …

Extracellular Vesicle-Based Liquid Biopsies: Decoding the Tumor Microenvironment for Precision Oncology
Abstract: The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in cancer initiation, progression, and therapeutic response. Decoding the TME is, therefore, essential for advancing precision oncology. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, are nanoscale lipid bilayer particles secreted by tumor and stromal cells. They transport a wide range of bioactive molecules, such as DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, and metabolites, which reflect the dynamic state of the TME. Recent advances in …

Rare Representation of Three Mesiodentes: A Supernumerary Challenge
Abstract: Supernumerary teeth are commonly occurring anomaly which is characterised by the presence of additional teeth compared to the conventional dentition. Mesiodens is the most typical supernumerary tooth, located within the premaxilla between the two central incisors. Mesiodentes is seen in a rare condition when mesiodens erupt in multiple numbers. The etiology behind its incidence is obscure and numerous; however the foremost accepted theory is the hyperactivity of the dental lamina. …
