According to new ways in UV effects on live organisms, this research was studied. It deals with the effect of UV-A and UV-C bands on the herbaceous drug. The plants were grown in a uniform environment in the culture room and exposed to UV rays (20 minutes UV-A daily and UV-C for 10 minutes) after 10 days in six weeks. Indices of fresh and dry weight of aerial and root organs, leaf area, chlorophyll a, b and total chlorophyll content were investigated. The results of the comparison of the mean of the studied traits showed that there was a significant difference between treatments, so that the highest amount of each of the traits was related to the control treatment and the least amount was related to treatment of UV-C bands. This study shows the sensitivity of the plant to the UV rays and the sensitivity of the plant to UV-C bands is higher than the UV-A bands.","PeriodicalId":90579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomolecular research & therapeutics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47550341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is rare but a serious inherited disorder. The main objective of this study is to establish a remedy for the phenylketonuria disease (novel drug leads for phenylketonuria disease’s receptors viz. ASCL1 gene (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 1), GCH1 gene (GTP cyclohydrolase 1) and MAOB (Monoamine Oxidase B)) using phytocompounds from ayurvedic herbs. To achieve this objective we performed virtual screening with phytocompounds from ayurvedic herbs against the phenylketonuria disease’s receptors followed by ADME studies on the phytocompounds selected by virtual screening. Based on the analysis of the results of virtual screening and subsequent ADME studies on the phytocompounds it is seen that curcumin can be successfully considered as novel drug lead for treating phenylketonuria disease.","PeriodicalId":90579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomolecular research & therapeutics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69994900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Telomerase is an enzyme that adds TTAGG telomeric repeats at chromosomal ends. The activity of telomerase enzyme plays a significant role in initiation and progression of cancer cells. In cancer cells the telomere length is maintained by telomerase enzyme. Cancer cells survive due to the activity of telomerase enzyme due to which the length of telomere is maintained and cell evades cell death mechanisms. In cancer cells telomere shortening or dysfunctional telomeres suppress cancer progression and development due to the activation of cellular senescence pathway. In this review we summarize telomere structure, function and the role telomere plays in cancer development and progression. Hermen J. Muller and Barbara McClintock identified telomere as a structure present at the ends of the chromosomes. The word telomere is derived from the Greek word “telos” which means ends and “meres” means part. Shorter telomere length or the complete absence of telomere induces end to end fusion of the chromosomes and ultimately cause cellular senescence or cell death. James D Watson in 1970s termed end replication problem in which during DNA replication, the DNA dependant polymerase does not replicates completely at the 5’ terminal end leaving small regions of the telomere uncopied. In 1960 Leonard Hayflick and his colleagues identified that the human diploid cell can undergo limited number of cell divisions in culture. The maximum number of divisions that a cell can achieve in-vitro is known as Hayflick limit which was termed after leonard Hayflick. When the cells reaches to a limit where they can no longer divide will eventually go under biochemical and morphological changes that eventually leads to cell cycle arrest, a process known as “cellular senescence. The telomerase is an enzyme that functions to add telomere repeats to the ends of the chromosomes and was identified in 1984 by Elizbeth and her collague. The presence of telomerase enzyme activity was also identified in human cancer cell lines by Gregg in 1989. Another study conducted by Greider and associates showed the absence of telomerase enzyme in normal somatic cell. Shay and Harley in 1990s detected the presence of telomerase activity in 90 out of 101 human tumor cell samples isolated from 12 different tumor types, whereas they have found no activity in normal somatic samples (n=50) isolated from 4 different tissue types. Since then various studies on 2600 human tumor samples have shown the telomerase activity in around 90% of different tumor cells. The existence of telomerase activity in cancer cells clearly demonstrates a major role of this enzyme in cancer pathogenesis. Telomeres plays a critical role in cancer, aging, Progeria (premature aging) and various other age related disorders due to which telomere and telomerase enz","PeriodicalId":90579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomolecular research & therapeutics","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69993919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
