It potentially causes a wide range of human infections in cystic fibrosis and non-cystic fibrosis patients. However, developing a safe preventive or therapeutic solution against A.

An Aedes-Anopheles Vaccine Candidate Supplemented with BCG Epitopes Against the Aedes and Anopheles Genera to Overcome Hypersensitivity to Mosquito Bites.

Background: Skeeter syndrome is a severe local allergic response to mosquito bites that is accompanied by considerable inflammation and, in some cases, a systemic response like fever. People with the syndrome develop serious allergies, ranging from rashes to anaphylaxis or shock. The few available studies on mosquito venom immunotherapy have utilized whole-body preparations and small sample sizes.

Development and immunological evaluation of an mRNA-based vaccine targeting Naegleria fowleri for the treatment of primary amoebic meningoencephalitis.

More than 95% of patients fall victim to primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), a fatal disease attacking the central nervous system. Naegleria fowleri, a brain-eating microorganism, is PAM's most well-known pathogenic ameboflagellate. Despite the use of antibiotics, the fatality rate continues to rise as no clinical trials have been conducted against this disease.

An mRNA-based reverse-vaccinology strategy to stimulate the immune response against Nipah virus in humans using fusion glycoproteins.

The zoonotic pathogen, Nipah virus, is considered a potential healthcare threat due to its high mortality rates and detrimental symptoms like encephalitis. Ribavirin, an antiviral drug helps in overcoming the number of casualties and reducing the mortality rate, but no long-lasting solution has been proposed yet putting global health security in jeopardy. Given the cognizance of mRNA-based vaccines as safe and efficacious preventative strategies against pathogens, the current study has utilized the reverse-vaccinology approach coupled with immunoinformatics to propose an mRNA-based vaccine candidate against the Nipah virus.

Fenugreek seed ethanolic extract inhibited formation of advanced glycation end products scavenging reactive carbonyl intermediates.

Senescence is a natural phenomenon of growing old. It accelerates under certain conditions like diabetes mellitus resulting in early decline of bodily functions, which can be avoided by many claimed functional foods. The present study aims to investigate the anti-aging ability of Fenugreek seeds (; a common ingredient of Indo-Pak cuisines.

; a biotechnological perspective on the coming-of-age prince's pine.

has been studied for almost two centuries now, with the first paper exploring the phytochemistry of the plant published in 1860. Almost all contemporary studies focus on the biotechnological advances of including its utilization as a natural alternative in the cosmetic, food, biofuel, and healthcare industry, with a special focus on its therapeutic uses. This literature review critically investigates the significance and applications of secondary metabolites extracted from the plant and presses on the biotechnological approaches to improve its utilization.

A reverse vaccinology approach to design an mRNA-based vaccine to provoke a robust immune response against HIV-1.

There have been substantial advances in HIV research over the past three decades, but we are still far from our goal of eliminating HIV-1 infection entirely. Numerous ever-evolving antigens are produced as a result of HIV-1's genetic variability. Developing an effective vaccination is challenging because of the structural properties of the viral envelope glycoprotein that obscure conserved receptor-binding sites and the presence of carbohydrate moieties that prevent antibodies from reaching potential epitopes.

Identification of Bacterial Strains and Development of anmRNA-Based Vaccine to Combat Antibiotic Resistance in via In Vitro and In Silico Approaches.

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms is a significant concern in global health. Antibiotic resistance is attributed to various virulent factors and genetic elements. This study investigated the virulence factors of to create an mRNA-based vaccine that could help prevent antibiotic resistance.

Biosynthesis and Mathematical Interpretation of Zero-Valent Iron NPs Using Seed Tincture for Indemnification of Carcinogenic Metals Present in Industrial Effluents.

Zero-valent iron nanoparticles (ZVI-NPs) are utilized for the indemnification of a wide range of environmental pollutants. Among the pollutants, heavy metal contamination is the major environmental concern due to their increasing prevalence and durability. In this study, heavy metal remediation capabilities are determined by the green synthesis of ZVI-NPs using aqueous seed extract of which is a convenient, environmentally friendly, efficient, and cost-effective technique.

Immunoinformatics Approach to Design Multi-Epitope-Based Vaccine against Machupo Virus Taking Viral Nucleocapsid as a Potential Candidate.

The family members of Arenaviridae include members of the genus Machupo virus, which have bi-segmented negative sense RNA inside the envelope and can be transferred to humans through rodent carriers. Machupo virus, a member of the mammarenavirus genus, causes Bolivian hemorrhage fever, its viral nucleocapsid protein being a significant virulence factor. Currently, no treatment is available for Bolivian hemorrhage fever and work to develop a protective as well as post-diagnosis treatment is underway.

Execution and Design of an Anti HPIV-1 Vaccine with Multiple Epitopes Triggering Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses: An Immunoinformatic Approach.

Human Parainfluenza Virus (HPIV) Type-1, which is an anti-sense ribonucleic acid (RNA) virus belonging to the paramyxoviridae family, induces upper and lower respiratory tract infections. The infections caused by the HPIV Type-1 virus are usually confined to northwestern regions of America. HPIV-1 causes infections through the virulence of the hemagglutinin-neuraminidase (HN) protein, which plays a key role in the attachment of the viral particle with the host's receptor cells.

Application of Artificial Intelligence in Combating High Antimicrobial Resistance Rates.
