Cost effective and reliable cell based ELISA as an alternative method of flow cytometry for assessment of binding activity of Vedolizumab.

Vedolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody used for inflammatory bowel disease treatment. Vedolizumab binds to the α4β7 integrin complex and inhibits its binding to mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1). To evaluate the binding efficacy and quality control check of Vedolizumab, flow cytometry is performed by using HuT78 cells.

Cancer informatics analysis indicates high CHAC2 associated with unfavorable prognosis in breast cancer.

Breast cancer remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide and exhibits a poor prognosis. The induction of genetic changes deregulates several genes that increase the disposal towards this life-threatening disease. CHAC2, a member of the glutathione degrading enzyme family has been shown to suppress gastric and colorectal cancer progression, however, the expression of CHAC2 in breast cancer has not been reported.

National Control Laboratory Assessment of Quality of Rituximab Biosimilars in India.

In past few years many rituximab (RTX) biosimilars have been launched in India. Biosimilars are products that are similar in terms of quality, safety, and efficacy to its innovator product and are expected to offer improved affordability. The less clinical examination is a significant source of reduction in the cost of development of a biosimilar.

Dynamic Energy Management System for a Smart Microgrid.

This paper presents the development of an intelligent dynamic energy management system (I-DEMS) for a smart microgrid. An evolutionary adaptive dynamic programming and reinforcement learning framework is introduced for evolving the I-DEMS online. The I-DEMS is an optimal or near-optimal DEMS capable of performing grid-connected and islanded microgrid operations.

Factors modifying transcriptional regulation of signaling genes have putative role in tumor development and progression in humans.

Genes involved in signaling are highly regulated at the level of transcription. Several factors have been known to play role in transcriptional modification of genes. Among these DNA sequence variations present in the regulatory region and aberrant methylation of CpG Iceland in promoter region are the most important factors modifying transcriptional regulation of genes.

In-vitro carbofuran induced genotoxicity in human lymphocytes and its mitigation by vitamins C and E.

Various efforts have been made in past in order to predict the underlying mechanism of pesticide-induced toxicity using in vitro and animal models, however, these predictions may or may not be directly correlated with humans. The present study was designed to investigate the carbofuran induced genotoxicity and its amelioration by vitamins C and E by treating human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1.
