Hypertension, a major cause of cardiomyopathy, is one of the most critical risk factors for heart failure and mortality worldwide. Loss of metabolic flexibility of cardiomyocytes is one of the major causes of heart failure. Although Catestatin (CST) treatment is known to be both hypotensive and cardioprotective, its effect on cardiac metabolism is unknown.

- Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder that leads to low platelet counts, mostly seen in children after viral infections, while adults may develop chronic ITP.
- In adults, though rare, ITP can occur following viral infections like dengue fever, with symptoms typically showing up towards the end of the first week of illness.
- A case study of a woman in her forties experiencing ITP as a primary symptom of dengue fever illustrates the necessity for early diagnosis and proper treatment, underscoring ITP as a potential complication of viral infections.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates CP symmetry violation in the decay of D^{+} particles into K^{-}K^{+}π^{+} using data from proton-proton collisions at a high energy of 13 TeV.
- A unique model-independent method was employed to analyze the phase-space distributions of D^{+} and D^{-} particles, correcting for any instrumental biases using D_{s}^{+} decays.
- The findings indicate no significant evidence of CP violation, with a p value of 8.1%, and measure specific CP asymmetry observables, marking this study as the most sensitive search of its kind in multibody decays.
Two marine-derived bacteria, Bacillus paralicheniformis (HR-1) and Bacillus haynesii (HR-5), were isolated from sediments and identified using 16S ribosomal RNA gene amplification and sequencing as well as biochemical analysis. The development of a bacterial consortium (HR-1 & HR-5) from these two bacteria was used to increase the production of the protease enzyme under various conditions, including fermentation media, carbon and nitrogen sources (1% w/v), different pH levels, incubation time, and the obtained enzyme, were detected using SDS-PAGE followed by purification. Bacterial consortium HR-1 & HR-5 exhibited maximum protease production (330.

LNPs contain ionizable lipids, phospholipids, cholesterol, and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated lipids and deliver mRNA for COVID-19 vaccines to liver when injected intravenously or intramuscularly. In 2021, we elaborated one-component ionizable amphiphilic Janus dendrimers (IAJDs) accessing targeted delivery of mRNA.
