New modeling shows how synonymous mutations those that change the DNA sequence of a gene but not the sequence of the encoded protein can still impact protein production and function. A team of researchers led by Penn State chemists modeled how genetic changes that alter the speed of protein synthesis, but not the sequence of amino acids that comprise the protein, can lead to misfolding that changes the protein’s activity level, and then corroborated their models experimentally.

Nitte College of Pharmaceutical Sciences in partnership with UNICEF and Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, executed a project on Social &Behavior Change Among the Communities to Avail Health & Nutrition Services in Karnataka. It sparked off with the inaugural ceremony on 6th of May, 2022 where Dr. Kusum Devi, Principal, NCOPS emphasizedon the importance of nutrition and immunization for the well-being of the community.

Accumulating evidence finds that exercise can improve brain function and delay or prevent the onset of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. While the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, recent research suggests that exercise-induced activation of peripheral systems such as muscle, gut, liver, and adipose tissue may affect neural plasticity. A special issue of Brain Plasticity presents new research and insights on neural plasticity and the role of peripheral factors in cognitive health.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) deaths have the dubious distinction of being the highest among all fatal illnesses in India as they account for almost 25 per cent of deaths. A most worrying factor that has arisen over the past decade has been that more and more youngsters are becoming vulnerable to CVD and dying. According to me, there are several reasons for this alarming trend.

Cosmetic and patents are the words that are rarely used together. Promotion of cosmetics through ‘chemistry’ or ‘chemical’ is not a regular practice. Nevertheless, these terms like chemistry, cosmetics and patents often make up a successful composition that leads to the advancement of variety of beauty products. In USA, first patent was given to liquid soap in 1865 followed by patent for deodorant in 1888.
