Current trends in epigenetic, cellular and molecular pathways in management of rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic chronic polyarticular autoimmune disorder of joints and joint membrane mainly affecting feet and hands. The pathological manifestation of the disease includes infiltration of immune cells, hyperplasia of the lining of synovium, formation of pannus and bone and cartilage destruction. If left untreated, the appearance of small focal necrosis, adhesion of granulation, and formation of fibrous tissue on the surface of articular cartilage is noted.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction: A Cellular and Molecular Hub in Pathology of Metabolic Diseases and Infection.

Mitochondria are semiautonomous doubly membraned intracellular components of cells. The organelle comprises of an external membrane, followed by coiled structures within the membrane called cristae, which are further surrounded by the matrix spaces followed by the space between the external and internal membrane of the organelle. A typical eukaryotic cell contains thousands of mitochondria within it, which make up 25% of the cytoplasm present in the cell.

Insights into the Explicit Protective Activity of Herbals in Management of Neurodegenerative and Cerebrovascular Disorders.

The longstanding progressive neurodegenerative conditions of the central nervous system arise mainly due to deterioration, degradation and eventual neuronal cell loss. As an individual ages, the irreversible neurodegenerative disorders associated with aging also begin to develop, and these have become exceedingly prominent and pose a significant burden mentally, socially and economically on both the individual and their family. These disorders express several symptoms, such as tremors, dystonia, loss of cognitive functions, impairment of motor activity leading to immobility, loss of memory and many more which worsen with time.

Exploration of Multiverse Activities of Endocannabinoids in Biological Systems.

Over the last 25 years, the human endocannabinoid system (ECS) has come into the limelight as an imperative neuro-modulatory system. It is mainly comprised of endogenous cannabinoid (endocannabinoid), cannabinoid receptors and the associated enzymes accountable for its synthesis and deterioration. The ECS plays a proven role in the management of several neurological, cardiovascular, immunological, and other relevant chronic conditions.

Targeting Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I in Management of Neurological Disorders.

The degradation of neurons marks as the pathological reason for onset of most of the neurological diseases although the functional deficiencies and symptoms may vary. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) boosts regeneration of both motor and sensory neurons and thus presents as a potential treatment in management of neurological disorders. IGF-I is a pleiotropic agent which stimulates the survival and outgrowth of neurons accompanied by their motility as well as myelination by glial cells.

Biotechnological Innovations from Ocean: Transpiring Role of Marine Drugs in Management of Chronic Disorders.

Marine drugs are abundant in number, comprise of a diverse range of structures with corresponding mechanisms of action, and hold promise for the discovery of new and better treatment approaches for the management of several chronic diseases. There are huge reserves of natural marine biological compounds, as 70 percent of the Earth is covered with oceans, indicating a diversity of chemical entities on the planet. The marine ecosystems are a rich source of bioactive products and have been explored for lead drug molecules that have proven to be novel therapeutic targets.

Current Trends in Neurodegeneration: Cross Talks between Oxidative Stress, Cell Death, and Inflammation.

The human body is highly complex and comprises a variety of living cells and extracellular material, which forms tissues, organs, and organ systems. Human cells tend to turn over readily to maintain homeostasis in tissues. However, postmitotic nerve cells exceptionally have an ability to regenerate and be sustained for the entire life of an individual, to safeguard the physiological functioning of the central nervous system.

Untying the correlation between apolipoproteins and rheumatoid arthritis.

Aim And Objective: The concentration of lipoproteins and apolipoprotein are extremely low in the synovial fluid of any healthy person as compared to the concentrations in plasma. However, in the synovial fluid of any diseased patient the amount of cholesterol and lipids is sharply increased. The current review defines the role of various apolipoproteins and lipoproteins and their constituent subfractions in the synovial fluid embarking its principal role in rheumatoid arthritis.

Exploring the Effect of Terminalia catappa Fruit Extract in Rheumatoid Arthritis: An Evaluation of Behavioural, Hematologiocal and Histopathological Parameters.

Background And Objective: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by failure of spontaneous resolution of inflammation with lifetime perseverance, becoming principal cause of inactivity. Many conventional therapies are in use but the side effects associated with them are equally problematic. Therefore, an urge to explore advanced therapeutic approaches with least adverse events has seeded the idea of discovering newer herbal drugs and their respective constituents in management of RA.

Understanding the Role of Inflammasomes in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Inflammasomes are the molecular pathways that activate upon conditions of infection or stress and trigger the activation and maturation of inflammatory cytokines. Immune reactions in conjugation with inflammatory processes play a pivotal role in developing innumerable diseases. An over reactive immune system fabricates many allergic and hypersensitive reactions in response to autoantibodies activated against modified self-epitopes and similar molecules.

Emerging Therapeutic Effects of Herbal Plants in Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease characterized by the failure of spontaneous resolution of inflammation with lifetime perseverance, becoming one of the major causes of disability in millions of people. It is mainly characterized by progressive erosion of cartilage in response to the formation of pannus leading to chronic polyarthritis and joint distortion. Early diagnosis and advances in molecular biology undoubtedly revolutionized therapeutic interventions in the past decade for better disease management.

Nutraceuticals in Neurological Disorders.

Neurological diseases are one of the major healthcare issues worldwide. Posed lifestyle changes are associated with drastically increased risk of chronic illness and diseases, posing a substantial healthcare and financial burden to society globally. Researchers aim to provide fine treatment for ailing disorders with minimal exposed side effects.

Intercalating the Role of MicroRNAs in Cancer: As Enemy or Protector.

Objective: The transformation in cells at genetic levels stimulatesthe proliferation of cancer. The current review highlights the role of miRNA in management of cancer by altering processes of body at cellular levels.

Methods: A deep research on the literature available till date for miRNA in cancer was conducted using various medical sites like PubMed, MEDLINE from internet and data was collected.

Role of HDAC inhibitors in diabetes mellitus.

Objective: The role of histone deacetylases has come out as an emerging remedy in control and treatment of various metabolic disorders and cancers. This review highlights their intricate role in diabetes mellitus as well as its associated complications.

Key Findings: Through recent studies and reports the role of various epigenetic markers in treatment of diabetes mellitus has been revealed.
