In Silico Drug Design for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Development of Host–Pathogen Interaction Network and Molecular Docking Procedures
Abstract: Objective: A leading cause of illness is the contagious disease tuberculosis (TB), this infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) particularly M. tuberculosis and M. africanum, is what causes tuberculosis. Diverse receptor proteins (mycobacterial proteins) with various 3D structures and functions were evaluated to access the multi-domain antimycobacterial action of ligands. The specific receptor proteins PDB ID: 3PTY, PDB ID: 4OW8, PDB ID: 5KWA, and PDB ID: 3ZXR, were opted for …

Unmasking Human Metapneumovirus: The Emerging Threat to Vulnerable Populations
Abstract: Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV) is a contagious respiratory virus that commonly spreads among individuals. It can cause serious infections, especially in high-risk groups like infants, older adults, and individuals with weakened immune systems.It is a major contributor to acute respiratory illnesses. Since its discovery in 2001, HMPV has been identified as a common cause of both upper and lower respiratory tract illnesses, with clinical presentations ranging from mild symptoms to severe …

A Computational Study to Elucidate the Phytochemicals as An Antagonist Against Pruritis in Psoriasis
Abstract: Objective: Psoriasis is a chronic, non-contagious, auto-immune skin disorder that causes inflammation, pain, and itching in the affected areas. The etiology of this condition is not entirely understood, and while there are treatments available to manage the symptoms, there is currently no cure. The Transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily Vanillin, member 3 (TRPV3), present in keratinocytes, allegedly had a part in the development of psoriasis-related pain and itching. Specifically, …

Evaluating the Impact of a Structured Teaching Program on the Knowledge of Mothers with Children Under Five Regarding Upper Respiratory Tract Infections and Home Remedies in a Selected Primary Healthcare Area in Bengaluru
Abstract: Background: Upper Respiratory Tract Infections are contagious infections involving the nose, throat sinuses, pharynx, larynx, tonsils, and adenoids. The typical upper respiratory tract infections are nasopharyngitis (common cold), tonsillitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, and pharyngitis etc., Precautionary measures in early stages can help to prevent complications. Further, home remedies can offer comfort from symptoms and reduce the duration of illness and these home remedies have no side effects, but also boost up …

A Narrative Review on Tuberculosis Disease Transmission, Treatment, Prevention, Emergency Care, and Vaccine Allocation in Second Highest Populated Country (India)
Abstract: Tuberculosis, an airborne illness caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a highly contagious disease primarily impacting the lungs, though it can also affect other body parts, excluding hair and nails. There are two main types of tuberculosis: pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), which targets the lungs, and extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB), which involves other areas such as lymph nodes, bones, joints, and the nervous system. The theme for World Tuberculosis Day in 2024 is …

Using Multitarget Molecular Docking to Examine the Antiviral Potential of Clerodendrum Phlomidis against Measles
Abstract: Objective: Measles, a viral disease caused by a member of the Paramyxoviridae virus family, is highly contagious and characterized by a respiratory illness and a maculopapular rash on the skin. Children are the main victims of the illness. In the context of drug development, this study investigates the efficacy of phytocompounds derived from Clerodendrum phlomidis against the target protein of the measles virus. Methods: The 7SKS protein was retrieved from …

Common Diseases of Silkworm and Their Management – A Comprehensive Overview
Abstract: Silkworms (Bombyxmori L.), pivotal to the sericulture industry, are susceptible to various diseases that significantly impact cocoon production and quality. Common silkworm diseases include viral, bacterial, fungal, and protozoan infections. Prominent viral diseases, such as nuclear polyhedrosis (NPV) and cytoplasmic polyhedrosis (CPV) often cause mass mortality in larvae. Bacterial diseases, like flacherie, are typically induced by poor hygiene and environmental stress. Fungal infections, including muscardine caused by Beauveria bassiana, proliferate …
