BACKGROUND/AIMS Signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway plays an important role in antiviral efficacy of interferon alpha (IFN-α). IFN-α is the main therapeutic against hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. We explored effects of IFN-α on HCV replication and antiviral gene expression by targeting STAT. METHODS In response to IFN-α, STAT status, HCV replication, and antivi...

Neurodegeneration is the progressive loss of structure or function neurons. Amyloid beta oligomers and aggregates have been linked to neurodegeneration. While previous studies suggested that dietary α-tocopherol intake can prevent amyloid aggregation protect brain against neurotoxicity, other research, however, indicated tocotrienol forms might be used as an alternate agent this kind degenerati...

Haemoglobinopathies and different forms of thalassaemias including alpha thalassaemia has been found to be as high as 10% in Eastern India. The alpha globin disorders are less commonly reported because the diagnosis of alpha thalassaemia is usually missed unless in the severe homozygous form or as Hb Barts. But presence of alpha gene has been found in cases of unexplained anaemias and also in s...
