Molecular Docking of Cocculus hirsutus Phytocompounds with the Selective DENV Virus Stereotypes
Abstract: Dengue is a tropical disease with a high infection rate worldwide. Though treatments are available for the symptoms, anti-dengue drugs are unavailable. To tackle this issue, the study aims to shortlist the potential phytocompounds from Cocculus hirsutus medicinal plant, prevalent in South and South East Asia. Using molecular docking and ADME analysis, two potential compounds possessing high drug-likeness are identified namely, Sinococuline and Morphinan.

Clinical Profile of Dengue Patients who had a Prior Infection with the Covid 19 Virus in a Tertiary Care Centre
Abstract: This cross-sectional analytical study conducted in a tertiary care center aims to investigate the clinical profile of Dengue virus-infected patients with a prior history of COVID-19 within the last three years. Dengue, a prevalent tropical disease, ranges from mild fever to severe conditions like hemorrhagic fever and shock syndrome. The study utilizes the World Health Organization's 2009 classification for Dengue and delineates the febrile, critical, and recovery phases of infection. …

ISGylation: A Key Host Cellular Defense Mechanism
Abstract: ISGylation, a crucial process of the innate immune response, has garnered increasing attention for its involvement in host's defense against pathogenic infections as well in cancer progression. The key player of ISGylation, ISG15, is stimulated by type I interferons (IFNs). ISG15 covalently binds with viral (influenza NS1A and nucleoproteins) and host (Nedd4, filamin B and CHMP5) target proteins and this interaction inhibits the viral replication process and release of viral …
