Introduction: This study designed to examine whether social/ environmental experiences can induce the epigenetic modification, and influence the associated physiology and behaviour. To test this, we have used social stress [prenatal stress (PNS)] model and then housed at environmental enrichment (EE) condition to evaluate the interaction between specific epigenetic modification and its influence on behaviour.

Methods: Pregnant rats were randomly divided into a control group, PNS group, and PNS+EE group.

There is a pressing need for accessible biomarkers with high diagnostic accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis to facilitate widespread screening, particularly in underserved groups. Saliva is an emerging specimen for measuring AD biomarkers, with distinct contexts of use that could complement blood and cerebrospinal fluid and detect various analytes. An interdisciplinary, international group of AD and related dementias (ADRD) researchers convened and performed a narrative review of published studies on salivary AD biomarkers.

Naming chemical compounds systematically is a complex task governed by a set of rules established by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC). These rules are universal and widely accepted by chemists worldwide, but their complexity makes it challenging for individuals to consistently apply them accurately. A translation method can be employed to address this challenge.

This study investigates the potentials of Chlorococcum humicolo algal biomass for the extraction of valuable biochemical and biodiesel production, with focus on the phycoremediation of textile dye effluents. The alga was cultivated in three media: CFTRI medium, combined dye effluent, and dye bath effluent in the laboratory. The highest cell count (254 × 10 cells/ml) and lowest oil content (16.
