Neuroimmunometabolism: How Metabolism Orchestrates Immune Response in Healthy and Diseased Brain.

Neuroimmunometabolism describes how neuroimmune cells, such as microglia, adapt their intracellular metabolic pathways to alter their immune functions in the CNS. Emerging evidence indicates that neurons also orchestrate the microglia mediated immune response through neuro-immune crosstalk perhaps through metabolic signalling. However, little is known about how the brain's metabolic microenvironment and microglial intracellular metabolism orchestrate the neuroimmune response in healthy and diseased brains.

Synthesis, characterization, and biological activities of novel organometallic compounds of rhenium(I) with 2-(2-benzylidenehydrazinyl) benzothiazole Schiff-base derivatives: Molecular docking, ADME, and DFT studies.

A series of substituted 2-(2-benzylidenehydrazinyl)benzothiazole Schiff-base derivatives and complexes containing Re(I) were synthesized and analyzed using various characterization techniques, including elemental analysis, conductance measurement, H-NMR, FT-IR, and LC-MS. The biological activities of the compounds were evaluated. Binding affinity between the complexes and calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was conducted using UV-visible spectroscopy, viscosity measurement, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking studies, indicating intercalation binding mode.

Eco-conscious synthesis of novel 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives as potent Anti-microbial agent and comparative study of cell viability and cytotoxicity in HEK-293 cell line utilizingIndian gooseberry (Phyllanthus emblica) fruit extract.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a pressing global health challenge that necessitates the search for novel antimicrobial agents and synthetic methodologies. This study investigates the synthesis and antimicrobial efficacy of 25 novel 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives, catalyzed by Amla (Phyllanthus emblica) fruit juice, which is rich in organic acids and polyphenolic compounds, thus serving as an environmentally sustainable catalyst, in adherence to green chemistry principles. The synthesis is achieved through a one-pot, solvent-free process that yields high quantities of the desired compounds in significantly less time compared to traditional methods.

Production of a novel cellulase by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens OKB3 isolated from soil: Purification and characterization.

Microbial cellulases have become significant biocatalysts because of their complex composition and extensive industrial applications. This study aimed to isolate an efficient cellulase-producing strain, followed by molecular identification, enzyme purification, and characterization. Among 110 isolates, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens OKB3 was selected for its significant cellulase production, with optimal activity at pH 5.

Effect of conservation agriculture on soil fungal diversity in rice-wheat-greengram cropping system in eastern Indo-Gangetic plains of South Asia.

Introduction: Conservation agriculture (CA) is emerging as an eco-friendly and sustainable approach to food production in South Asia. CA, characterized by reduced tillage, soil surface cover through retaining crop residue or raising cover crops, and crop diversification, enhances crop production and soil fertility. Fungal communities in the soil play a crucial role in nutrient recycling, crop growth, and agro-ecosystem stability, particularly in agricultural crop fields.
