Cancer cells meet their energy need by predominantly increased uptake of glucose, high rate of glycolysis, and increased production of lactate even in the presence of adequate oxygen. This process was proposed by Otto Warburg and named after him as the Warburg effect. The Development of drugs that target glucose intake and aerobic glycolysis or lactic acid secretion of cancer cells is a newer approach

MfpA protein encoded by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) and stands for Mycobacterium fluoroquinolone resistance protein A. This protein provides Mtb intrinsic resistant property from fluoroquinolone antibiotics by inhibiting DNA gyrase that are known to be the primary target of fluoroquinolone drugs. DNA gyrases are important for bacterial chromosomal genesis as they are majorly involved in DNA replication

B‐cell‐specific Moloney leukemia virus insertion site 1 (BMI‐1) is one of the stemness markers. The prognostic and clinicopathological effects of BMI‐1 expression in colorectal cancer (CRC) have been in dispute with different studies.

Kidney stones, also known as calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis, are often asymptomatic, leading to kidney injury and renal failure complications. Corilagin, a gallotannin found in various plants and known to elicit various biological activities. The present study aimed to elucidate the renoprotective effect of corilagin against the rats' renal stones deposition. The rats were induced for nephrolithiasis

Tuberculosis, a global threat is a highly infectious disease intensified by the emergence of drug‐resistant strains. In tuberculosis disease spectrum, a typical situation is a dormant or latent phase where a person exposed to Mycobacterium tuberculosis has the reservoir of the disease that may or may not result in an active state. Existence of the dormant state is retarding the eradication of tuberculosis

Nanoparticles are the magic bullets and at the leading edge in the field of nanotechnology because of their unique properties make these materials indispensable and superior in many areas such as electronic. Extensive applications of nanomaterials incontrovertibly entering our living system. The increasing use of nanomaterials into the ecosystem in one of the crucial environmental factors that human

This article focuses the ethical and regulatory issues raised by gene editing. In the foreword of this article authors provide the background where the ethical and regulatory issues by gene editing have been raised including the scientific dimension of gene editing techniques. In the second part of the article the authors focus on ethical issues in human gene editing with start of Huang Junjiu case

Biotechnology and Bioengineering techniques have been widely used in the production of biofuels, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and food additives, being considered a “green” form of production because they use renewable and non‐polluting energy sources. On the other hand, in the traditional processes of production, the target product obtained by biotechnological routes must undergo several stages of purification
