A Comparative in silico Study of the Glucose Transporters Predicts Ubiquitination of the Transporters at the C-Terminal End
Abstract: Glucose Transporters are a family of membrane spanning proteins that transports glucose from exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell through the plasma membrane. There are 14 glucose transporters known till now. Although the transporters belong to the same family but not all function in glucose transport. They are different from each other in primary amino acid sequence. However, there is similarity in the secondary as well …

Metabolic Reprogramming in Carcinogenesis: An Overview
Abstract: Metabolic reprogramming is a crucial mechanism via which cells modify their metabolic pathways to adjust to changes in the environment and maintain growth, survival, and function. This phenomenon is of utmost importance in a wide range of physiological and pathological situations, specifically in cancer, immunological responses, and stem cell biology. In cancer, metabolic reprogramming facilitates fast cell growth and survival, as demonstrated by the Warburg effect, where cancer cells prioritize …

FACTORS OF DIABETES MELLITUS
Abstract: AbstractDiabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common non-communicable diseases (NCDs) globally. Diabetes mellitus is also known as prameha or madhumeha. It is most commonly found in many economically developing and newly industrialized countries. Diabetes mellitus is a disorder that affects the body’s ability to make or use insulin. Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas that helps transport glucose (blood sugar) from the bloodstream into the cells …

Nanoyeast Supported on Silica Gel for The Continuous Flow Bioethanol Production
Abstract: Nanomaterials outperform their bulk counterparts. Yet, production of nanomaterials, especially, nanoyeast is a challenge and is an upcoming field. Yeast is a fungal strain that consumes carbohydrates (glucose, sucrose, molasses and the like) and produces bioethanol, a potential transportation fuel. Impregnation methods are well known in catalysis to yield nanomaterials via better dispersion. An attempt has been made to modulate the size of yeast to increase the efficiency of carbohydrate …

Recent research trends in Bioethanol production – An Indian context
Abstract: Biofuels production is indeed a research hotspot. Prevention is better than cure. A paradigm shift from fossil based to bio-based fuels gives health, wealth and happiness. Among various biofuels, after biodiesel, bioethanol is next to and close to commercialization. The use of bioethanol is countries like Brazil and US is a success story. In India there is significant progress taking place in the transportation sector to use bioethanol as fuel …

Pathways of Periodontal Disease and Alveolar Bone Loss in Type II Diabetes
Abstract: or poorly-controlled type II diabetes often exhibits a high morbidity of periodontal pathology. Food impaction in defective restorations or open proximal contacts often leads to infection, carious lesions, periodontitis, alveolar bone loss and often tooth loss. An iatrogenic injury occurs when restorations are defective, fractures, or have open proximal contacts and are not planned to be repaired or replaced. In addition to having poor therapeutic outcomes, defective restorations or open …
