Serotype-specific clinical features and spatial distribution of dengue in northern Kerala, India.

Background: Collection and compilation of spatial, meteorological, entomological, and virological data are critical in mitigating climate-sensitive emerging infections like dengue. This study was a holistic attempt to understand the dengue situation in the Kasaragod district of Kerala, India.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 13 health institutions from June to July 2021.

Sensitization of cancer cells towards Cisplatin and Carboplatin by protein kinase D inhibitors through modulation of ATP7A/B (copper transport ATPases).

Drug resistance of cancer cells is a significant impediment to effective chemotherapy. One primary reason for this is copper exporters - ATPase copper transporting alpha (ATP7A) and ATPase copper transporting beta (ATP7B). These molecular pumps belong to P-type ATPases and dispose off the Platinum (Pt) based anticancer drugs from cancer cells, causing resistance in them.
