Investigation of the effect of salt stress on photosynthetic electron transport pathways in the Synechocystis PCC 6803 cyanobacterium.

Cyanobacteria are important model organisms for studying the process of photosynthesis and the effects of environmental stress factors. This study aimed to identify the inhibitory sites of NaCl in the whole photosynthetic electron transport in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 WT cells by using multiple biophysical tools.

Association of Epstein-Barr Virus and its clinical relevance in Human Papillomavirus-negative oral squamous cell carcinoma: A cohort study from South India.

Objective: The study assessed the prevalence and clinical implications of Epstein Barr Virus (EBV)-positive but Human Papillomavirus (HPV)-negative oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in a tertiary care hospital setting. The overall goal was to elucidate the potential impact of EBV on OSCC disease progression and prognosis.

Design: A total of 134 surgically resected and histopathologically confirmed OSCC tumor biopsies were collected from a tertiary care hospital.

A single-centre retrospective evaluation of potential drug-drug interactions in breast cancer patients undergoing CDK 4/6 inhibitors chemotherapy.

Introduction: The utilization of CDK4/6 inhibitors has led to compromised survival rates for breast cancer patients. Consequently, certain treatment aspects, involving adherence and drug-to-drug interactions, are gaining prominence. To develop chemotherapy regimens that are both effective and efficient, our main objective was to thoroughly characterize the drug-drug interactions that occur between cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors and concurrently prescribed medications in hospitalized breast cancer patients.

Past and future of cytoplasmic male sterility and heterosis breeding in crop plants.

Plant breeding needs to embrace genetic innovations to ensure stability in crop yields under fluctuating climatic conditions. Development of commercial hybrid varieties has proven to be a sustainable and economical alternative to deliver superior yield, quality and resistance with uniformity in a number of food crops. Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS), a maternally inherited inability to produce functional pollen, facilitates a three-line system for efficient hybrid seed production strategies in crops.

Electrochemical Deconstruction of Waste Polyvinylidene Chloride (PVDC) to Value-Added Products in Batch and Flow.

Chlorinated polymers have made enormous contributions to materials science and are commercially produced on a large scale. These chlorinated polymers could be recycled as chlorine sources to efficiently produce valuable chlorinated compounds owing to their facile release of HCl. Although the thermal stability of PVDC is low compared to PVC, this can be advantageous in terms of easy and fast dehydrochlorination.
