Cerebral collateral flow state in acute ischemic stroke correlates with clinical functional outcomes in non-thrombectomy patients.

Introduction: Hypoperfusion index ratio (HIR) measured by computerized tomography perfusion (CTP) has been shown to predict collateral flow state in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Low HIR (<0.4) is indicative of good collateral flow state.

Development of Thermosensitive Mucoadhesive Gel Based Encapsulated Lipid Microspheres as Nose-to-Brain Rivastigmine Delivery System.

Alzheimer's disease (ALZ) is a neurodegenerative disease that damages neuronal cells and causes decline in cognitive abilities. Administration of cholinesterase inhibitor compounds is the primary choice in the treatment of ALZ, one of which is rivastigmine (RVT). Several routes of administration of RVT are available, such as oral and transdermal.

Metabolic-Engineering Approach to Enhance Vanillin and Phenolic Compounds in Ocimum Sanctum (CIM-Angana) via VpVAN Overexpression.

Transgenic Ocimum sanctum plants were engineered to produce vanillin by overexpressing the VpVAN gene using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Positive transformants developed shoots within 4-5 weeks and were transferred to a root induction medium and four independent transformants with no observed adverse effects were kept for anlysis. Quantitative RT-PCR indicated significantly higher VpVAN expression in transgenic lines AG_3 and AG_1, impacting the phenylpropanoid pathway and phenolic compound accumulation.

Influence of prey availability on the movement pattern of breeding saker falcons () in Mongolia.

As an apex predator in arid steppe, saker falcon plays a crucial role in maintaining ecosystem balance. Understanding their movement patterns concerning conspecific competition and prey availability is important for their conservation. We aim to understand how movement pattern of breeding saker falcons relates to prey availability.

Diosmin: A promising phytochemical for functional foods, nutraceuticals and cancer therapy.

Diosmin, a potent bioflavonoid derived from citrus fruits, has gained significant attention for its anticancer potential, reflecting a critical need in the ongoing battle against cancer. Amidst increasing cancer incidence, the quest for safer and more effective treatments has brought diosmin to the forefront, given its unique pharmacological profile distinct from other flavonoids. Diosmin's anticancer mechanisms are multifaceted, involving apoptosis induction, angiogenesis inhibition, and metastasis prevention.
