Nitric Oxide Synthase (NOS) in Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer is the most alarming problem of the current time. Nitric oxide, a free radical gas is synthesized by isoenzymes called nitric oxide synthase. Nitric oxide synthase consists of three isoforms; Nitric oxide produced is cytotoxic which is known to inhibit the DNA synthesis causing its damage. Keeping this in mind, nitric oxide synthase was determined in breast cancer and normal breast tissue. For this tissue from 60 breast …

Role of Nitric Oxide Synthase in Platelets of Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer is the leading problem of the world. Free radicals have unpaired electron which can be neutralised by human body for maintaining health, these free radicals are toxic, highly unstable and very reactive. Antioxidants and free radical scavengers protect cells from toxic effects in order to maintain redox state of the cell. Nitric oxide is one of the important free radicals synthesized from nitric oxide synthase. It has been …

Role of Nitric Oxide in Platelets of Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer is a disease of multifactorial origin; it is seen frequently in women of older age, having family history, affluent society, late age of marriage and first childbirth, early menarche, late menopause, and nulliparity. Oxidative stress results when balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and antioxidant defence is lost which result in mutations, sister chromatid exchanges, cytotoxicity, carcinogenesis etc. Clinical, experimental and epidemiological studies suggest that free radicals …

Nitric Oxide—An Important Biomolecule in Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer represents significant problem of the world. Reactive nitrogen species of which nitric oxide (NO) is important constituent is a free radical gas which is synthesized by nitric oxide synthase (NOS).NO inhibits DNA synthesis and can damage DNA directly by deamination. In this study, NO level was studied in normal, pre- and postoperative cases of breast carcinoma. For this blood samples from 60 breast carcinoma cases were taken along …

Heart Rate and Serum Nitric Oxide Express Circahoralian Oscillation in Hypertensive Patients
Abstract: Cardiovascular cells possess circadian oscillators and certain cardiovascular diseases are attributed to disruption in cardiac circadian rhythm. This study is aimed to find the association between the serum level of nitrogen species and the electrocardiograph records taking in consideration the circahoralian oscillation in hypertensive patients. A total number of fifty hypertensive patients and twenty healthy subjects were admitted in this study. The anthropometric measurements and lipid profile were determined. Serum …

Glutathione: Postoperative Study in Breast Carcinoma
Abstract: Breast cancer represents a significant problem in the world. Glutathione a tripeptide is found in all mammalian tissues. Thus any change in its synthesis or utilization can profoundly influence the redox status of cells. In this study blood sample was collected from 60 FNAC confirmed breast cancer patients (preoperative and postoperative three months) and 30 normal healthy controls for the estimation of glutathione. There was significant increase in glutathione in …

Nt-Probnp and Nitrogen Species Measurement As Useful Biomarkers for Detection of Asymptomatic Heart Failure in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
Abstract: Insidious heart failure is associated or complicated hypertension, coronary artery disease, diabetes, chronic lung disease, atrial fibrillation, renal failure, depression, and anemia. High plasma NT-proBNP level found to be a predictive value in detecting latent left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. The aim of the study is to detect asymptomatic heart failure in outpatient type 2 diabetic patients using plasma NT-proBNP as a diagnostic biomarker of heart failure and nitrogen species as …

Effects of Chlorpyrifos as Inducer for Oxidative Stress in Liver, Kidney and Spleen of Freshwater Fish, Pseudetroplus maculatus (Bloch, 1795)
Abstract: Chlorpyrifos is one of the most common organophosphate insecticides found abundantly in freshwater ecosystems and has been detected in agricultural and fishery products worldwide. The study focused to determine the effect of chlorpyrifos on the induction of oxidative stress in freshwater fish Pseudetroplus maculatus. Fish were exposed to sublethal concentrations (0.661 and 1.32 μg/l) of chlorpyrifos for 15 and 30 days. Activities of antioxidant enzymes and the levels of hydrogen …

Anthropogenic Intensification and Emerging Air Pollution Patterns across the Western Himalaya: Multi-Year Spatiotemporal Case Study
Abstract: Anthropogenic intensification is profoundly impacting air quality within vulnerable mountain ecosystems, yet the availability of long-term, high-resolution data from the Western Himalaya is strikingly limited. This study provides a detailed multi-year (2020-2024) spatiotemporal analysis of particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5), nitrogen oxides (NOₓ), ammonia (NH3), and ozone (O3) concentrations across contrasting anthropogenic settings—specifically, tourist influx zones such as Dharamshala and industrial hotspots like Damtal in Himachal Pradesh, India. Key pollutants …

The Review of Beetroot Composition and Benefits of Beetroot
Abstract: The genus Beta L. comprises the red beetroot, which is linked to the Betoideae branch of the goosefoot family (Amaranthaceae). Because the tuberous root of the vegetable beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) contains a large amount of nutrients, including vitamins and minerals as well as substances with physiological activity, including betalain, inorganic nitrates, polyphenols, and folates, it is consumed in every country around the world. Like its relative turnip, the beet …

Therapeutic Prospects and Comparative Bioactive Evaluation of Fenugreek Seed Extracts
Abstract: A medicinal plant with substantial therapeutic potential, fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is rich in bioactive phytoconstituents. The phytochemical makeup and antioxidant properties of aqueous and methanolic fenugreek seed extracts were compared in this study. Phenolics, flavonoids, terpenoids, alkaloids, tannins, and saponins were found in both extracts, with the methanolic fraction showing greater intensity, according to preliminary phytochemical screening. The methanolic extract has higher levels of phenolic, flavonoid, and terpenoid content, …

Reduction of Pollutant for SI Engine Using Argon and Oxy-hydrogen
Abstract: Reducing the emission associated with oil combustion is gaining increasing interest worldwide. Due to their dangerous effects on human health, vegetation and climate, various pre-combustion, in-cylinder and post combustion techniques have been tried for their abatement. The combustion of a hydrocarbon fuel with air produces mainly carbon dioxide(CO2) and Water(H2O). However, internal combustion engines are not perfectly efficient, so some of the fuel is not burned, which results in the …

Transmission, Immune Response, and Immunomodulation in Giardiasis
Abstract: Giardiasis is a major public health problem at least in terms of morbidity in many geographical areas of the world. There are regional pockets in developing countries where prevalence rate of giardiasis is much higher than other parasitic diseases. The prevalence of Giardia intestinalis in symptomatic diarrhoeal cases vary from place to place and also from time to time. The overall prevalence generally ranges from 2 to 57% and mainly …

Cryptosporidium parvum Mediated Diarrhea in Immunocompromised Patients
Abstract: Cryptosporidium parvum is one of the important diarrheal agents, especially in malnourished children and immunocompromised patients. Of the many species, Cryptosporidium parvum and Cryptosporidium hominis are the two major species that cause water borne outbreaks. The geographic difference in the distribution of parasite has been attributed to sources and its mode of transmission. The parasite is able to survive in the environment for long time and is resistant to many …

Effects of Smoking on Respiratory System
Abstract: Smoking is whispered to exacerbate respiratory diseases by harming respiratory defense mechanisms. Specifically, smoking damages mucociliary function, which impairs clearance of inhaled substances even in smokers who have no respiratory symptoms promotes bacterial adherence to airway epithelial cells. The devastating health impact of cigarette smoking is well known, Cigarette and its components produce structural changes in the respiratory tract include peri-bronchiolar inflammation and fibrosis, augmented mucosal permeability, destruction of the …
