Comprehensive Analysis of Damage Associated SNPs of Luteinizing Hormone and Its Receptor: A Computational Approach.

Problem: The luteinizing hormone (LH), produced by gonadal and nongonadal cells in the anterior pituitary gland play a critical role in human sexual development and reproduction. It is required for the induction of ovulation in females and sex steroid hormone production in both males and females. It is also an important player in early pregnancy events in oviducts and in absence of LH signalling, the uterus cannot initiate pregnancy.

Comparative Genomic and Functional Analyses for Insights into Pantoea agglomerans Strains Adaptability in Diverse Ecological Niches.

Pantoea agglomerans inhabit diverse ecological niches, ranging from epiphytes and endophytes in plants, body of animals, and occasionally in the human system. This multifaceted bacterium contributes substantially to plant growth promotion, stress resilience, and biocontrol but can also act as a pathogen to its host. The genetic determinants underlying these diverse functions remain largely unfathomed and to uncover this phenomenon, nineteen strains of Pantoea agglomerans were selected and analyzed.

Understanding the Genetic Basis of Celiac Disease: A Comprehensive Review.

Celiac disease is an immune-mediated enteropathy with typical symptoms of weight loss, abdominal bloating, diarrhea, vomiting, or constipation. Many shreds of evidence show that CeD is hereditary in origin and various biochemical pathways have been connected to its etiology. Numerous genes from different physiological pathways have been investigated in the last few decades, however a comprehensive analysis is required to address the gaps and provide a more integrated understanding of how these genetic factors contribute to the pathogenesis of disease.

Whole genome analysis for plant growth promotion profiling of CPHN2, a non-rhizobial nodule endophyte.

Reduced agricultural production as well as issues like nutrient-depleted soils, eutrophication, and groundwater contamination have drawn attention to the use of endophyte-based bioformulations to restore soil fertility. CPHN2, a non-rhizobial nodule endophyte isolated from , exhibited a variety of plant growth-promoting traits. In this study, we used NextSeq500 technology to analyze whole-genome sequence information of this plant growth-promoting endophytic bacteria.

Characterization of halo-tolerant plant growth promoting endophytic Bacillus licheniformis MHN 12.

Background: Endophytic bacteria overlay significant role in plant growth promotion, eliminating phyto-pathogens and combating stress-conditions. In the present study, we aimed to screen high salt tolerant bacteria and study their adaptive response to elevated salt concentrations. A total of 46 endophytic bacterial isolates from Vigna radiata were screened for salt tolerance.

Draft Genome Sequence of Pantoea agglomerans CPHN2, a Potential Plant-Growth-Promoting Endophyte.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Pantoea agglomerans CPHN2, an endophyte isolated from nodules of Cicer arietinum (Chickpea) from Hisar, Haryana, India. The genome was 4,839,532 bp and exhibited a GC content of 55.2% and 4,508 genes with 4,468 coding sequences, 1 rRNA, 71 tRNAs, and 1 CRISPR.

Biogenic Synthesis of Zinc Nanoparticles, Their Applications, and Toxicity Prospects.

Nanofertilizers effectively deliver the micronutrients besides reducing the phytotoxicity and environmental damage associated with chemical fertilizers. Zinc, an essential micronutrient, is significant for chloroplast development, activation of certain enzymes, and primary metabolism. Nano zinc oxide (ZnO) is the most widely used zinc nanoparticle.

Endophytism: A Multidimensional Approach to Plant-Prokaryotic Microbe Interaction.

Plant growth and development are positively regulated by the endophytic microbiome both direct and indirect perspectives. Endophytes use phytohormone production to promote plant health along with other added benefits such as nutrient acquisition, nitrogen fixation, and survival under abiotic and biotic stress conditions. The ability of endophytes to penetrate the plant tissues, reside and interact with the host in multiple ways makes them unique.

Interplay between PCOS and microbiome: The road less travelled.

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a complicated neuro-endocrinal, reproductive, and metabolic condition. It encompasses patterns such as hyperandrogenism, recurrent cysts triggered by steroidogenic functional aberrations in the ovaries, overweight, chronic inflammation, and more. The underlying cause of this heterogeneous illness is obscure, although it is suspected to be driven by a blend of environmental and hereditary factors.

Dissecting the role of micro-RNAs as a diagnostic marker for polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Objective: To investigate the clinical diagnostic value and role of micro-RNAs (miRNAs) in the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Setting: Not applicable.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms in treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome: a systematic review.

As 15-20% of reproductive aged females are suffering from polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a large number of pharmacological preparations are frequently available in the market for the treatment of PCOS; however, they seem to be ineffective and cause undesirable side effects. This has emphasized the need to optimize dosage regimens for individualized treatment. The objective of this systematic review is to review single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with drugs used for the treatment of PCOS to understand pharmacogenetics variability of patients to drug response there by helping clinicians in designing tailored treatments and possibly reducing adverse drug reactions.

Association of Luteinizing hormone and LH receptor gene polymorphism with susceptibility of Polycystic ovary syndrome.

Altered folliculogenesis and reproductive anomalies in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) suggest that variations of genes involved in folliculogenesis might influence etiopathogenesis of this syndrome. The objective of this study was to assess the association of LHβ (rs1056917) and lutropin receptor (LHR) (rs61996318) polymorphism with polycystic ovarian syndrome and to interrelate the levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) with severity of clinical manifestations of PCOS. Three hundred women of reproductive age were enrolled in this retrospective case-control study.

Unveiling the association between Vitamin D Receptor and Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome - a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Low Vitamin D status observed in the populations globally and its associations with diverse systems have kindled the interest for Vitamin D in medical literature in last two decades. Accumulating evidence manifest that deficiency of Vitamin D might be a causal factor in the pathogenesis of various features of Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). This notion is supported by the fact that > 3 % of the human genome is regulated by vitamin D receptor (VDR).

Sex hormone binding globulin - an important biomarker for predicting PCOS risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) is a glycoprotein which regulates bioavailability of sex steroid hormones. Interest in SHBG has escalated in recent years because of its inverse association with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes type II. This meta-analysis was performed to examine the associations of SHBG with PCOS and to correlate serum SHBG levels with various PCOS associated endocrine and metabolic dysregulation as well as to determine the effects of various therapeutic agents on serum SHBG levels in PCOS patients in order to assess the true accuracy of SHBG in the prediction of PCOS.
