Valorization of pineapple (ANANAS comosus) peel waste for levan production: Assessment of biological activities.

Levan canopies a pivotal role in all the emerging sectors owing to its non-toxic and biodegradable nature. However, their expensive production impeded their commercialization and made them uneconomical. Hence the current work is focused on harnessing the pineapple peel as a viable substrate for bacterial fermentation to promote levan production.

MicroRNA-510-3p regulated vascular dysfunction in Preeclampsia by targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA) and its signaling axis.

Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy complication associated with multi-organ damage and vascular dysfunction. Meanwhile, microRNAs or miRNAs are crucial regulators of gene expression in various diseases including PE. Our previous studies reported high expression of miR-510 in the PE patients' blood compared to normal.

Expression profiling of signal transducer and activator of transcription3 in oral squamous cell carcinoma in south Indian population.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is widely acknowledged as the most prevalent form of oral malignancy. The annual identification of approximately 540,000 new cases of OSCC highlights its significant impact. The survival rate beyond 5 years postsurgery remains low.
