Mucosal Defense Mechanism in Fish: An Overview
Abstract: Mucosal surfaces are important physical barriers whose main function is to protect the systemic environment of the body against microbial invasion. It is the first line of defense to protect the animal and also functioning as an active immune tissue. Four mucosal-associated lymphoid tissues (MALTs), which start the immune responses are skin, gills, gut, and nose, have been reported in fish. Humoral and cellular immunity, their regulation and the factors …

Computational Identification of Protein Tyrosine Phospatase-1B (PTP-1B) Inhibitors for Checking Type II Diabetes
Abstract: Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are a family of enzyme that comprises of about 100 proteins which catalyze dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine residues in protein substrates. Phosphotyrosine is a central element in cell signaling, and its activity is essential for cellular homeostasis and for appropriate responses to extracellular signals. PTP-1B antagonizes insulin signaling by reducing the activation state of the insulin receptor kinase, thereby inhibiting post-receptor signaling in insulin responsive tissue. The …
