It describes how focused and precise treatments for a variety of illnesses, such as cancer, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases, have been made possible by immunotherapeutics, which are based on antibody and hybridoma technology. The main therapeutics produced by this method are monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). The article describes the hybridoma technology process, in which a heterogeneous population of cells that produce unique mAbs are created by combining immortalized myeloma cells with B lymphocytes. To isolate and create drug formulations, the hybridoma cells that produce the desired antibodies are chosen and grown in large numbers. In the article, successful uses of immunotherapeutics based on antibody and hybridoma technology are highlighted. Hybridoma technology used in treatment of autoimmune conditions, viral infections and cancer. The potential of mAbs to increase the range of available treatments is also covered. The page also describes the distinction between monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies, how they are made, and the different uses of hybridoma technology in research, diagnostics, therapy, vaccine development, and fundamental immunology investigations.

It is a condition of neurodevelopment characterized by, a lack of speech, distinctive behavior, seizure, intellectual capacity, and cheerful disposition. The cause of AS is a lack of production by maternal imprinted genes (UBE3A) on the 15q11-q13 chromosome. The complications of AS are strabismus, atrophy of the optical nerve, and blindness, which are rarely reported. There is a possibility of complications in the laboratory diagnostic tests for AS. One method is to evaluate with DNA methylation analysis of AS/Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) imprinting center (IC). On cytogenetic analysis, at least 50–60% of patients had a maternally induced de novo mutation of chromosome 15q11-13 with more serious clinical phenotypes such as microcephaly, seizures, language impairment, and motor difficulties. Multiexonic or whole gene deletion is identified by array-comparative genomic hybridisation (CGH) in some cases and laboratory and methodology may vary such deletions. Diagnosis of AS can be suggested by unsteady movements before walking. Based on the patient’s medical history, electroencephalogram (EEG) data, clinical symptoms, and the presence or absence of a chromosome 50 deletion, a diagnosis of AS is made. Incidence estimated for AS is approximately 1 in 12,000–20,000 birth lives, but the epidemiological measures of life expectancy remains unknown.

Further, possible interactions between valacyclovir and different excipients were assessed by thin-layer chromatography. In vitro dissolution studies in different sets of experiments were done to determine the influence of the hydrophobic and hydrophilic nature of excipients (on the dissolution profile of VCH using USP II-type dissolving apparatus). Moreover, in silico molecular docking studies were also done to know any possible molecular interactions among drugs and excipients using AutoDock VINA 1.2.0 software and GROMACS 5.0 software.\u0000\u0000\u0000\u0000FTIR and 1H NMR spectra of VCH and physical mixtures of VCH and excipients were compared and it was observed that no significant deviation of characteristic peaks in infrared spectroscopy and 1H NMR signals was detected.

There are several sources by which the air, water, food, and the whole environment gets polluted, becoming unhealthy for living. Human activities result in the generation of harmful molecules that accumulate in the environment predisposing to adverse human health. There are several contaminants present or released to the environment ranging from persistent organic pollutants, toxic metals, hydrocarbons, pesticides and generally induce oxidative stress from the generation of reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, and free radicals, damaging DNA, protein and lipid structures of the cell, ultimately resulting in various diseases, especially noncommunicable diseases such as cancers and development disorders. A favorable antioxidant status is considered protective of human health, enhancing resistance to disease or improving prognosis through redox and molecular mechanisms. Although therapeutic regimens still occupy pride of place in the global health systems, especially in Africa, advances in science provide compelling evidence of the urgent need to have a better understanding of the antioxidant system and its application in reinforcing human defense mechanisms. A pragmatic approach based on sound scientific principles is to adopt the intake of protective factors modulating host defense mechanisms largely antioxidant systems by employing dietary and/or pharmaceutical agents as chemopreventive or biological interventions (bio-actives). Micronutrients are a diverse group of substances including vitamins and micro-minerals which play a significant role as cofactors and enzymes in signal transduction and genetic signaling. These beneficial bio-molecular effects are exerted through the modulation of several important signaling pathways. Micronutrients include potent non-enzymatic antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, carotenoids, retinoids, thiols, natural flavonoids, among others, and trace elements such as copper, manganese, zinc, selenium, and iron which play a significant role as co-factors for the control of the activity of antioxidant enzymes. Recognition of the potential of prime poly-functional micronutrients is pivotal and should be harnessed in Africa, especially Nigeria, at least in part as a proactive and economical approach to disease prevention and management.

This paper meticulously delves into the predicaments associated with prevailing antimalarial delivery methods – oral, intravenous, and intramuscular. The paper navigates through the compelling merits of the transdermal pathway, drawing inspiration from its triumphant deployment in other medical realms. The investigation extends to encompass preclinical inquiries dedicated to exploring the transdermal administration of antimalarials. Transdermal antimalarials have shown complete suppression and elimination of Plasmodium parasites, as suggested by the preclinical studies. These preclinical studies emerge as a beacon of hope, exhibiting heightened bioavailability, enhanced safety margins, and notable cost-effectiveness when compared with oral antimalarials. Moreover, this innovative avenue for drug delivery not only offers convenience but also holds the potential to be a transformative solution to the adherence problems of traditional antimalarials, which currently afflicts standard therapeutic options.","PeriodicalId":93408,"journal":{"name":"American journal of biopharmacy and pharmaceutical sciences","volume":"60 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138606652","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}

Food production needs to increase by about 70% within the next 40 years to cater for food consumption. Moreover, with increasing collective consciousness toward food supplementation for improving quality of health, the development of nutraceuticals has gained prominence in disease prevention, treatment, and overall health improvement. However, due to the constant controversial debate of food production for consumption against other uses, the search for better alternatives led to microalgae. Species such as Spirulina, Chlorella, Scenedesmus, and Dunaliella, among many others, are important sources of primary and secondary metabolites that play crucial roles in disease prevention and treatment. Understanding the significance of nutraceuticals and how microalgae can be used to produce those value-added molecules is necessary for any potential commercial exploitation. This review discusses the potential of microalgae to be exploited as promising sources of nutraceuticals. Here, essential biomolecules used as nutraceuticals are explored and their crucial roles in disease prevention, especially cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and strengthening the immune system. The composition of microalgae, which makes them suitable candidates to produce nutraceuticals, is discussed. Furthermore, the multifarious aspects of microalgae cultivation, in terms of cultivation systems and factors affecting biomass production and productivity regarding nutraceutical production, are reviewed. The multiple sustainable facets of microalgae culture, which can help in carbon sequestration, fast biomass production, and boosting health benefits, should interest stakeholders and potential commercial producers.

Innate immunity provides the first challenging defense against the diverse foreign harmful invaders, while adaptive immunity, also known as acquired immunity, utilizes specialized immune cells and antibodies, which provide a counterattack and destroy these diverse foreign invaders. Moreover, they can prevent infections/diseases in the future by recognizing those invaders and providing a new immune response. However, when an immune system responds too aggressively to an infection, a condition termed a cytokine storm takes place, which may lead to multi-organ failure and even death.
