Halophilic bacteria are promising candidates for biofuel production because of their efficient cellulose degradation. Their cellulases exhibit high activity, even in the presence of inhibitors and under extreme conditions, making them ideal for biorefinery applications. In this study, we isolated a strain of (Kadal6) from decomposed cotton cloth on a Rameshwaram seashore.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic disease that primarily manifests as chronic synovitis of the symmetric small joints. Despite the availability of various targeted drugs for RA, these treatments are limited by adverse reactions, warranting new treatment approaches. Suberosin (SBR), isolated from Plumbago zeylanica-a medicinal plant traditionally used to treat RA in Asia-possesses notable biological activities.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are neurodevelopmental conditions that share genetic etiology and frequently co-occur. Given this comorbidity and well-established clinical heterogeneity, identifying individuals with similar brain signatures may be valuable for predicting clinical outcomes and tailoring treatment strategies. Cortical myelination is a prominent developmental process, and its disruption is a candidate mechanism for both disorders.

Acquired aplastic anaemia (AA) is an autoimmune bone marrow failure disease resulting from a cytotoxic T-cell-mediated attack on haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Despite significant progress in understanding the T-cell repertoire alterations in AA, identifying specific pathogenic T cells in AA patients has remained elusive, primarily due to the unknown antigenic targets of the autoimmune attack. In this review, we will synthesize findings from several decades of research to critically evaluate the current knowledge on T-cell repertoires in AA.

Liquid biopsy is gaining importance in oncology in the age of precision medicine. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), among other tumor-derived indicators, are isolated and analysed from bodily fluids. EVs are secreted by both healthy and cancerous cells and are lipid bilayer-enclosed particles that are diverse in size and molecular makeup.
