Hepatoprotective efficacy of Argemone mexicana L. root in paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity in a rat model.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Argemone mexicana L. (Papaveraceae), a weed that thrives in the tropical and subtropical areas of South and Central America, Mexico, Caribbean Islands and India. In India, it has been used traditionally to treat vesicular calculus, inflammatory conditions, and hepatobiliary disorders.

Taxonomic review of the genus Lemyra Walker (Erebidae: Arctiinae) from India.

In the present manuscript, we review the genus Lemyra Walker, 1856 from India by examining the specimens collected freshly from different parts of India from 2016 to 2019 and from the National Zoological Collection of the Zoological Survey of India (NZCZSI). The revised status of Lemyra in India is presented by describing seven new species: Lemyra (Thyrgorina) rubripecta sp. nov.

Protective effect of Tecoma stans (L.) Juss.ex Kunth in CFA-induced arthritic rats.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Tecoma stans (L.) Juss.ex Kunth (Bignoniaceae) is mainly found in tropical and subtropical regions of Africa and Asia.

A review of the genus Plutodes Guene (Geometridae: Ennominae) from India with description of one new species.

In the present paper, we discuss the taxonomy of 11 species of Plutodes Guene, [1858], collected from different regions of India, including description of one new species, P. quadratus sp. nov.

Exploring Piezo1, Piezo2, and TMEM150C in human brain tissues and their correlation with brain biomechanical characteristics.

Unraveling the intricate relationship between mechanical factors and brain activity is a pivotal endeavor, yet the underlying mechanistic model of signaling pathways in brain mechanotransduction remains enigmatic. To bridge this gap, we introduced an in situ multi-scale platform, through which we delineate comprehensive brain biomechanical traits in white matter (WM), grey-white matter junctions (GW junction), and the pons across human brain tissue from four distinct donors. We investigate the three-dimensional expression patterns of Piezo1, Piezo2, and TMEM150C, while also examining their associated histological features and mechanotransduction signaling networks, particularly focusing on the YAP/β-catenin axis.
