Two newly synthesized ligands, 1-((2-(4-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (HL1) and 1-((2-(4-(naphthalen-1-yl)thiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol (HL2) were characterized using spectroscopy and single X-ray crystallography. Both belong to triclinic systems with space groups P21/c (HL1) and P-1 (HL2), exhibiting planar structures. Biological assays revealed significant antitumor activity, with HL2 showing significant antitumor activity against HepG2 cells (IC: 3.

Major histocompatibility complex class I deficiency results from deleterious biallelic variants in TAP1, TAP2, TAPBP, and B2M genes. Only a few patients with variant-curated TAP1 deficiency (TAP1D) have been reported in the literature and the clinical phenotype has been variable with an emphasis on autoimmune and inflammatory complications. We report TAP1D in a Nepalese girl with a severe clinical phenotype with serious viral infections at a very young age.

Background: A digital supportive supervision (DiSS) tool was developed and implemented in Rajasthan, India, to enhance the coverage and quality of maternal health, child health and nutrition (MCHN) services. This study aims to assess the impact and cost-effectiveness of DiSS compared to traditional paper-based supportive supervision.

Methods And Analysis: A quasi-experimental research design incorporating interrupted time series regression analysis will be employed to evaluate the impact of DiSS.

Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is an essential source of antioxidants and a prime candidate for bioengineering experiments. Many studies have aimed to improve tomatoes using CRISPR/Cas9 technology; however, the success rate is limited due to the lack of efficient regeneration and genetic modification techniques.
