Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Raipur, Chhattisgarh (C.G), India.
Accurate post-mortem interval estimation is crucial in forensic investigations, providing essential information for criminal cases. Traditional techniques frequently encounter inaccuracies stemming from environmental and individual variables. The comet assay is a very sensitive technique that detects DNA damage, which has emerged as a promising tool for assessing DNA degradation.

Despite significant advances in drug discovery and the promising antitumor potential of combretastatin A4 (CA-4), which selectively targets rapidly dividing cancer cells, CA-4's effects on non-dividing human cells, such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), remain unclear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the in vitro bioactivity of CA-4 in human PBMCs, focusing on its antigenotoxic and antioxidant properties, while comparing its cytotoxic potency against PBMCs, cancer cell lines (JAR and HeLa), and the normal trophoblast cell line HTR-8/SVneo. Cell viability and metabolic activity were evaluated using the MTT assay.

Nanoceria, or cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO NP), are increasingly employed in a number of industrial and commercial applications. Hence, the environmental presence of these nanoparticles is growing progressively, enhancing the global concern on their potential health effects. Recent studies suggest that nanoceria may also have promising biomedical applications particularly in neurodegenerative and brain-related pathologies, but studies addressing their toxicity, and specifically on the nervous system, are still scarce, and their potential adverse effects and action mechanism are not totally understood yet.

Cancers still globally endanger millions of people yearly; the incidences/mortalities of colorectal cancers are particularly increasing. The natural nanoparticles (NPs) and marine biopolymers were anticipated to provide effectual safe significances for managing cancers. The transformation of curcumin to nano-curcumin (NCur) was conducted with gum Arabic.
