At present, disrupting p53-MDM2 interactions through small molecule ligands is a promising approach to safe treatment and management of human cancer. Tumor cells unlike the normal cells, are rapidly evolving affecting the efficacy of many approved anti-cancer agents due to drug resistance. Therefore, identifying a potential anticancer compound is crucial.

The dysregulation of cyclin-CDK6 interactions has been implicated in human breast cancer, providing a rationale for more therapeutic options. Recently, ATP-competitive inhibitors have been employed for managing breast cancer. These molecules, like most natural CDKs inhibitors, potently bind in the ATP-binding site of CDK6 to regulate trans-activation.

More recently, this approach has been extended to amplify population of genes, from evolutionarily related gene family for detection and evaluation of microbial consortial with several unique potentialities (e.g.

Hence, measures should be taken to protect humans from its hazardous effects. This study, therefore, examines the protective potential of (100 mg/kg body weight) on formaldehyde-induced (40%) liver oxido-inflammation in male rats.
