Combination Approach of Hyperthermia and Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase (PARP) Inhibitors in Cancer Treatment- A Brief Review

Author(s): Sayantani Karmakar and Siddikuzzaman
Volume: 1 Issue: 2 Pages: 86-93
DOI: https://doi.org/10.47857/irjms.2020.v01i02.011


Abstract Cancer is among the leading causes of death worldwide. The key therapeutic modalities to treat cancer include chemo-therapy, hormonal therapy, targeted therapy, immuno-therapy and combination therapy. A number of chemical agents target DNA; they cause breaks, intercalation and cross-links to damage DNA thereby inhibiting cell proliferation. Cisplatin and taxol based chemotherapies are still the

Volume: 1 Issue: 2 Pages: 64-80
DOI: https://doi.org/10.47857/irjms.2020.v01i02.009


Abstract Ribosomes are large ribonucleoprotein complexes that have been proved to be ideal biological sample for the development of the cryo-Electron Microscopy (cryo-EM) field. On the other hand, advancement in cryo-EM technologies have helped in elucidating detailed structure-function aspects of various kinds of ribosomes, belonging to prokaryotic, organellar, and complex eukaryotic systems. In a relatively

Structural Bioinformatics Predicts Large Intrinsically Disordered Regions of Erythrocyte Binding-Like Proteins of Plasmodium sp.: Functional Implications

Author(s): Arita Acharjee
Volume: 1 Issue: 2 Pages: 41-63
DOI: https://doi.org/10.47857/irjms.2020.v01i02.008


Abstract The Erythrocyte Binding Ligand (EBL) is an important protein of Plasmodium sp. required by the parasite for successful invasion into the red blood cells causing malaria. EBL is a potential anti-malarial drug target. Despite its importance only a portion of its structure i.e., Duffy Binding Domain (DBD), is solved. Thus, the remaining regions necessitate
