Definitive information about the number and nature of discrete steps of tumorigenesis is enigmatic. To understand the multistep nature of carcinogenesis, an in vitro model of 20-Methylcholanthrene-treated primary fibroblast ...

The ability of the Plasmodium parasites to develop resistance to commonly used antimalarial is the biggest challenge for malaria elimination. This threat is being accelerated by the systematic misuse or overuse of antimalarial, ...

Point mutations in the dhfr and dhps genes of Plasmodium falciparum are associated with pyrimethamine and sulfadoxine resistance respectively. In this study we have analyzed these genes from Bikaner (situated in North-West ...

Severe Plasmodium vivax malaria in adults has been reported from Bikaner (northwestern India) but the reports on children are scanty. This prospective study was done on 303 admitted children of malaria. The diagnosis was ...

The apicomplexan parasite Plasmodium vivax is responsible for causing more than 70% of human malaria cases in Central and South America, Southeastern Asia and the Indian subcontinent. The rising severity of the disease and ...

To evaluate microscopy, OptiMAL® and multiplex PCR for the identification of Plasmodium falciparumm (P. falciparum) and Plasmodium vivax (P. vivax) from the field isolates of Bikaner, Rajasthan (Northwest India).

Antisense transcription is pervasive among biological systems and one of the products of antisense transcription is natural antisense transcripts (NATs). Emerging evidences suggest that they are key regulators of gene ...
