Teleost Nonapeptides, Isotocin and Vasotocin Administration Released the Milt by Abdominal Massage in Male Catfish, .

In the present work the nonapeptides i.e., isotocin and vasotocin alone or in a combination were tested in to evaluate their effect on stripping by abdominal massage.

Pathogenesis of Aeromonas caviae in Clariasmagur.

Aeromonas spp. is a pathogenic bacteria that potentially cause infection in farmed fish, including Catfishes. In the present study, dominant bacteria were isolated from diseased Clarias magur and tentatively named BLBM-05.

Gonadotropin inhibitory hormone receptors (GnIHRs): Molecular characterization and synergistic effect of different drugs in Indian major carp, Labeo catla.

After the discovery of Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) in birds in 2000, it showed different roles in different vertebrate classes and even in different species of same classes. In birds and mammals, GnIH inhibits the expression of gonadotropins during reproduction, while in fishes it exerts both inhibitory and stimulatory effect on reproduction. The current study evaluates the role of GnIH during reproduction in Labeo catla.

A comparative prospective study of short-term outcomes of extended view totally extraperitoneal (e-TEP) repair versus laparoscopic intraperitoneal on lay mesh (IPOM) plus repair for ventral hernia.

Background: Currently, minimally invasive approach is preferred for the treatment of ventral hernias. After the introduction of extended view totally extraperitoneal (e-TEP) technique, there has been a constant debate over the choice of better approach. In this study, we compare the short-term outcomes of e-TEP and laparoscopic IPOM Plus repair for ventral hernias.

Laparoscopic approach in cholecystogastric fistula with cholecystectomy and omental patching: A case report and review.

Cholecystoenteric fistulas are rare complications of cholelithiasis, with cholecystogastric fistulas (CGFs) being the rarest. Recommended treatment is surgery; however, select asymptomatic patients can be managed conservatively. The population frequently involved is old age with multiple comorbidities.

Laparoscopic iliopubic tract repair for pediatric inguinal hernia has very low recurrence: an Indian experience.

Background: The aim of this study is to document results of laparoscopic iliopubic tract (IPT) repair for inguinal hernia in the pediatric age group.

Methods: Hospital records of 190 children who underwent IPT repair between January 2015 and January 2020 were analyzed retrospectively for demographic details, variations between clinical, radiological and laparoscopic diagnosis, associated pathologies, operative time, hospital stay, postoperative complications and follow-up. The internal ring was narrowed by approximating IPT to conjoint tendon using 3-0 polypropylene continuous or interrupted suture.

Characterization, Docking and Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Gonadotropin-Inhibitory Hormone Receptor (GnIHR2) in Labeo Catla.

Background/aims: GnIH receptors (GnIHRs) belong to the family of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and play a key role in the regulation of reproduction from fishes to mammals, either by inhibiting or stimulating the expression of gonadotropins. The aim of this study was to characterize GnIH receptor (GnIHR2) from Indian Major Carp, Labeo catla and its docking and simulation with GnIH antagonist RF313.

Methods: The full length sequence of GnIHR2 was obtained with RACE PCR.

Ontogenetic and tissue-specific expression of gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) and its receptors in Catla catla.

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) is an RFamide peptide, and its role in reproduction is well studied from fish to mammals, but very few reports are available about the function of GnIH during larval development. In this study, we examined the GnIH and GnIH receptors (GnIHRs) expression from embryogenesis to adult stage and tissue-specific expression in adult Catla catla using quantitative real-time (qRT) PCR. The qRT PCR analysis of GnIH mRNA during ontogenetic development showed the increasing trend from early developmental stages to the adult stage with the highest expression in 24 months fish.

Chitosan grafting onto single-walled carbon nanotubes increased their stability and reduced the toxicity in vivo (catfish) model.

The present work was aimed to develop the tissue benign, modified acid-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotube (COOH-SWCNT) chitosan (CS) hybrid (COOH-SWCNT-CS). Chitosan-nanotube hybrids were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermogravimetry Analysis (TGA), Raman spectroscopy, Emission Gun-Scanning Electron Microscopes (FEG-SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Micronuclei test of blood cells, comet assay of liver tissue and histological analysis of liver and kidney tissues were conducted after different treatments to evaluate the toxicity.

Robotic transduodenal excision of duodenal duplication cyst: Case report and review.

Duodenal duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies that generally present with abdominal pain and vomiting or may have nonspecific symptoms. Surgical excision is the recommended treatment owing to possible complications, including malignancy. However, difficult locations like the periampullary region are problematic and major surgical procedures, for example, pancreaticoduodenectomy is necessary for total resection.

Molecular characterization of gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) gene and effect of intramuscular injection of GnIH peptide on the reproductive axis in .

Gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone (GnIH) plays an important role in reproduction by inhibiting the expression of gonadotropins in birds and mammals, but in fishes, it is ambiguous. In this study, we cloned 606 bp long cDNA of GnIH from brain (cGnIH). The encoded preproGnIH peptide generated three putative peptides (cGnIH-I, -II, -III) of different size.
