Aminocarb (AMC), a carbamate pesticide, due to its prevalent usage exhibits increased accumulation in the environment affecting both insects and humans. It enters the human body via food grains and be transported through bloodstream. AMC's chemical structure, containing specific molecular frameworks and functional groups, enables it to bind with proteins like albumin and hemoglobin.

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are considered one of the most harmful forms of DNA damage. These DSBs are repaired through non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR) pathways and defects in these processes can lead to genomic instability and promote tumorigenesis. Phosphatase and Tensin homolog (PTEN) are crucial in HR repair.

Article Synopsis
  • * A study conducted at Chettinad Hospital assessed 32 male patients with intra-articular calcaneal fractures over two years, using the AOFAS scoring system to evaluate functional outcomes post-internal fixation.
  • * Results showed an average age of 39 years, with falls being the common cause of injury; the mean hospital stay was about 10 days, while post-surgical measurements indicated significant restoration of heel structure and alignment compared to pre-operative values.

Small molecules as ligands target multifunctional ribonucleic acids (RNA) for therapeutic engagement. This study explores how the anticancer DNA intercalator harmine interacts various motifs of RNAs, including the single-stranded A-form poly (rA), the clover leaf tRNA, and the double-stranded A-form poly (rC)-poly (rG). Harmine showed the affinity to the polynucleotides in the order, poly (rA) > tRNA > poly (rC)·poly (rG).

Load frequency control (LFC) plays a critical role in ensuring the reliable and stable operation of power plants and maintaining a quality power supply to consumers. In control engineering, an oscillatory behavior exhibited by a system in response to control actions is referred to as "Porpoising". This article focused on investigating the causes of the porpoising phenomenon in the context of LFC.
