Arsenic-Induced Cardiovascular Diseases and their Correlation with Mitochondrial DNA Copy Number, Deletion, and Telomere Length in Bangladeshi Population.

Arsenic contamination is a global health concern, primarily through contaminated groundwater and its entry into the food chain. The association between arsenic exposure and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is particularly alarming due to CVDs being the leading cause of death worldwide. Arsenic exposure has also been linked to changes in telomere length, mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNAcn), and deletion, further increasing the risk of CVDs.

Protective effects of and against Arsenic induced aberrant methylation and mitochondrial DNA damage in wistar rat model.

Millions of people around the world are chronically exposed to Arsenic (As) through food and drinking water. Studies revealed that Arsenic is genotoxic and causes damage to DNA. In this study, we evaluated and for their alleviative properties against Arsenic induced genotoxicity using Wistar Rat model.

Analysis of Prevalence in Chittagong, Bangladesh, Based on PCR and CLO Test.

The pathogenic bacterium is a causative agent of gastric diseases in Bangladesh as well as throughout the world. This study aimed at analyzing the prevalence of infection among dyspeptic patients in Chittagong, the second most populous city of Bangladesh, using 16S rRNA-based -specific Polymerase Chain Reaction and -like organism test. We found that 67% of the population under study was positive for infection.

Study of arsenic accumulation in rice and evaluation of protective effects of Chorchorus olitorius leaves against arsenic contaminated rice induced toxicities in Wistar albino rats.

Background: In the present study, we investigated the arsenic accumulation in different parts of rice irrigated with arsenic contaminated water. Besides, we also evaluated the protective effects of Corchorus olitorius leaves against arsenic contaminated rice induced toxicities in animal model.

Methods: A pot experiment was conducted with arsenic amended irrigation water (0.

Prediction of an Epitope-based Computational Vaccine Strategy for Gaining Concurrent Immunization Against the Venom Proteins of Australian Box Jellyfish.

Background: Australian Box Jellyfish (C. fleckeri) has the most rapid acting venom known to in the arena of toxicological research and is capable enough of killing a person in less than 5 minutes inflicting painful, debilitating and potentially life-threatening stings in humans. It has been understood that C.

A computational assay to design an epitope-based Peptide vaccine against saint louis encephalitis virus.

Saint Louis encephalitis virus, a member of the flaviviridae subgroup, is a culex mosquito-borne pathogen. Despite severe epidemic outbreaks on several occasions, not much progress has been made with regard to an epitope-based vaccine designed for Saint Louis encephalitis virus. The envelope proteins were collected from a protein database and analyzed with an in silico tool to identify the most immunogenic protein.

Computational analysis of bovine alpha-1 collagen sequences.

Bovine collagen alpha-1 is a naturally occurring extracellular matrix protein found in tendons and other connective tissues. It plays a vital role in cell growth, differentiation, attachment, and migration. Recent findings have established that collagen alpha-1 is involved in osteogenesis imperfecta phenotype in cattle but deep information about other members of this large family is not available so far.
