consumes in fresh state and eaten in fruit salads. Jackfruit is relatively small in calories and fat and a great source of Vitamin A (Crane et al., 2005) The jackfruit consists of ellagic acid, free sugar (sucrose), fatty acids, and amino acids like arginine, histidine, cystine, leucine, metheonine, lysine, tryptophan, theonine, and others nutritional composition (Pavanasasivam and Sultanbawa 1973). On the other hand, Jackfruit seeds are loaded in protein, it is also loaded of vitamin B6 and…

considering whether it is acidic,basic or neutral acidic it means if any amino acid having more than one group COOH. Eg-aspartic Basic aminoacid-if any amino acid having more than one NH2 Eg-histidine, Arginine Neutral amino acid-it means balanced like one acidic group and one basic group. Eg-glycine, Alanine Deviding amino acid consider about branched or non branched Monosaccharides It is the simplest form of…

6 ingredients for a healthy lifestyle Is your nutrition healing or harming you? The quest for healthy living is not a sprint but a marathon. It takes a learning curve that begins with setting the tone on the right foundation. 6 building blocks make this foundation. This is a fact backed by centuries of research done in the field of medicine and nutrition. When you become familiar with the functions of these building blocks within the human body, it provides you with the framework to make…

Vascular anomalies are a serious medical condition that affect blood vessel formation in as many as 1 in 10 people (Richter and Suen 2015). Vascular anomalies can be divided into two broad categories: vascular tumors and vascular malformations (Richter and Suen 2015). Vascular tumors, also known as hemangiomas, are characterized by rapid growth with most undergoing involution once the patient has reached a certain age (Richter and Suen 2015). On the other hand, vascular malformations are…

1. Materials and suppliers • Caffeine (anhydrous), BASF, Germany, was generously donated by Dar Al Dawa Development and Investment Company. Caffeine is 1,3,7-trimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione. It is white or almost white, crystalline powder or silky crystals. It is sparingly soluble in water, freely soluble in boiling water and slightly soluble in ethanol. It is used as central nervous system stimulant (British Pharmacopoeia 2009). • Methyl paraben was generously donated by Arab…

The choice of the suitable group for the activated PEG derivative is based on the type of available reactive group on the molecule, to which PEG will be conjugated. For proteins, typical reactive amino acids include lysine, cysteine, histidine, arginine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine, threonine, tyrosine as well as N-terminal amino acid group and the C-terminal carboxylic acid. Among them, lysine and N-terminal amino acid groups are the most used for the protein PEGylation (Wilson et al.…

Introduction DNA makes up the genetic material for all organisms. However, not all organisms have distinct molecules working with DNA that come together to make up chromatin. Chromatin is only found in eukaryotic cells, the cellular makeup of multicellular organisms. The structure of chromatin is composed of DNA and histones, together making up nucleosomes, and other non-histone proteins that bind to the DNA. The backbone of DNA is negatively charged and histones have a positive charge…

Introduction Vasopressors are common medications included in the treatment of cardiac arrest. Currently both epinephrine and vasopressin are being evaluated as significant treatments. The American Heart Association Guidelines have been adjusted to reflect these studies over the past 10 years. Within the Ventricular Fibrillation arm of the cardiac arrest algorithm (Link, 2015), step 6 directs for the administration of 1 mg epinephrine IV or IO every 3-5 minutes (See figure 1). The 2010 AHA…

enzymes. NE degrades the linker histone H1 as well as core histones leading to chromatin decondensation; which is independently enhanced by MPO [25, 26]. Also, the core histones H3 and H4 undergo citrullination (protein modification), converting arginine residues to citrulline [27, 28]. This process is catalyzed by peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) that is localized in the nucleus of neutrophils. It was shown that neutrophils isolated from PAD4-knockout mice lost their ability to release NET…

Atherosclerosis What is Atherosclerosis? Atherosclerosis is thickening, or hardening of the arteries, which can lead to plaque build up. This build up causes the arteries to narrow and makes it harder for the blood to flow. Sometimes a clot will form and stop the flow completely, causing a stroke or heart attack. Plaque is made up of cholesterol, fatty substances, cellular waste products, calcium and fibrin. Atherosclerosis begins at a young age and progressively increases with age, it can…
