Studies On Embryonic Stem Cells From Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein Transgenic Mice : Induction Of Cardiomyocyte Differentiation
(2013-07-17)Genesis of life begins with the fusion of female and male haploid gametes through a process of fertilization leading to the formation of a diploid cell, the zygote. This undergoes successive cleavage divisions forming 2-, ... -
Studies On Endocrine And Behavioral Assessment Of Reproductive Status In Asian Elephants (Elephas Maximus)
(2013-01-16)The Asian elephant (Elephas maximus), a charismatic ‘flagship species’, is threatened by extinction in the wild, and the development of self-sustainable captive populations is a key conservation challenge. A third of the ... -
Studies on exosomal microRNAs and proteins associated with Hepatitis C and Dengue virus induced pathogenesis
Studies on the exosomal microRNAs and proteins associated with Hepatitis C and Dengue virus-induced pathogenesis. Hepatitis C virus and Dengue virus are the group of positive-strand RNA viruses belonging to the family ... -
Studies On Growth And Development Of The Ovarian Dominant Follicle In Monovulatory Species : Analysis Of Transcriptional Changes And Factors Influencing Periovulatory Events
(2010-10-28)In response to LH surge, the selected dominant follicle undergoes a series of complex events viz., meiotic maturation of the oocyte, terminal differentiation of follicular cells, cumulus expansion and follicular rupture ... -
Studies On Heat Shock Protein 60 From Plasmodium Falciparum
(2010-09-14)Malaria is caused by a protozoan parasite belonging to the genus Plasmodia. Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for the fatal form of human malaria. Spread of drug resistant parasites warrants for sound biological ... -

Studies on inflammatory responses: Roles of Interferon-gamma in macrophage activation and Nitric oxide synthase 2 during Salmonella Typhimurium infection-induced sepsis
Inflammation is a complex set of immune responses that is critical for survival during injury or infection. It is also crucial for maintenance of tissue homeostasis under myriad conditions caused by cellular stress and ... -
Studies On Initiator tRNA Selection On The Ribosomes In Escherichia Coli
(2009-05-06)The studies reported in this thesis address the aspects of initiator tRNA selection in Escherichia Coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of ptotein biosynthesis in general and initiator tRNA ... -
Studies on Interactions between ARE Binding Proteins and Splicing Factors and their Role in Altered Splicing of PDGF-B ORF
(2018-03-03)Pre-mRNA splicing is an important level in posttranscriptional gene regulation that is essential for accurate protein synthesis and generating protein diversity. The abundance of cryptic splice sites and long intronic DNA ... -
Studies On Intracrine Regulators Of Ovarian Function : Examination Of Progesterone Action On Structure And Function Of Corpus Luteum In The Monkey
(2011-08-09)The control of reproductive cycles in higher primates is largely dependent on negative and positive feedback mechanisms by both steroidal and non-steroidal substances of the ovaries which regulate the function of ... -
Studies On Molecular Analysis Of Capacitation Associated Protein Tyrosine Phosphorylation In Hamster Spermatozoa
(2014-04-07)In mammals, freshly ejaculated spermatozoa do not possess the ability to fertilize a mature oocyte. They acquire fertilization competence upon residing for a period of time in the female reproductive tract. The physiological ... -
Studies on Molecular Targets and Pathways Regulated by Rice RFL for Flowering Transition and Panicle Development
(2017-11-28)LFY of Arabidopsis is a member of a unique plant specific transcription factor family. It is involved in giving meristem a determinate floral fate by the activation of floral organ identity genes and preventing inflorescence ... -
Studies on NMPylase and Valine Catabolism Enzymes from Mycobacterium
Post-translational modifications constitute an important arm of the regulatory mechanism in mammalian cells. Therefore, bacterial pathogens, which thrive by mimicking the host cell signaling, are proving to be difficult ... -
Studies on Novel Functional Responses of Mouse Peritoneal Macrophages to Interferon-gamma : Roles of Nitric Oxide Synthase 2
(2018-04-18)Interferons are known cytokines that display antiviral, anti-proliferative and immuno-modulatory functions in the host. Interferon-gamma (Ifnγ) is the only type II family interferon that binds to the heterodimeric receptor ... -
Studies on Nudix hydrolase proteins and crosstalk between DNA repair pathways
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, has become a global health concern. This calls for a dire need to understand various aspects of mycobacterial physiology in order to design better strategies ... -
