Covalent Organic Framework as Selective Fluorescence Sensors for Cancer Inducing Volatile Organic Compounds.

Certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as formaldehyde, acetone, and ethanol, are overexpressed in some terminal diseases like cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's, etc. Therefore, high-precision detection and quantification of VOCs is imperative for early diagnosis of such detrimental diseases. Non-invasive and accurate fluorescence-based detection of such analytes has garnered widespread attention.

Left cardiac sympathetic denervation in children with Jervell Lange-Nielsen syndrome and drug refractory torsades - A case series.

Introduction: Long QT syndrome is an inherited malignant channelopathy which leads to life-threatening arrhythmia, with multiple genotypes. Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) is an autosomal recessive subtype of this disease, characterized by congenital sensorineural deafness and a high incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Methodology: We prospectively followed up six children who underwent left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) for JLNS in view of high-risk features despite being on maximally tolerated doses of oral propranolol.

Vanillic acid mitigates the impairments in glucose metabolism in HepG2 cells through BAD-GK interaction during hyperinsulinemia.

Glucokinase (GK), a key regulator of hepatic glucose metabolism in the liver and glucose sensor and mediator in the secretion of insulin in the pancreas, is not studied in detail for its therapeutic application in diabetes. Herein, we study the alteration in GK activity during hyperinsulinemia-induced insulin resistance in HepG2 cells. We also investigated the link between GK and Bcl-2-associated death receptor (BAD) during hyperinsulinemia.

Is Neutral Zone, Patients Comfort Zone? A Feedback Review.

The technique of neutral zone is useful. It is the convergence of many concepts and ideas into a feasible and functional method. The technique aims to build a denture in accordance with the underlying oral structures that are formed by muscle function.

Bio-modified carbon paste electrode for the detection of Pb(II) ions in wastewater.

Heavy metal pollution in water is a serious environmental concern. Lead is one of the highly toxic heavy metals, and its toxicity is due to its non-degradation characteristic in living organisms. The monitoring of Pb(II) ions concentrations in drinking water is essential for human health and a safe environment.

Chlorogenic acid attenuates glucotoxicity in H9c2 cells via inhibition of glycation and PKC α upregulation and safeguarding innate antioxidant status.

A series of cardiovascular complications associated with hyperglycemia is a critical threat to the diabetic population. Here we elucidate the link between hyperglycemia and cardiovascular diseases onset, focusing on oxidative stress and associated cardiac dysfunctions. The contribution of advanced glycation end products (AGE) and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling is extensively studied.
