Journal ArticleDOI
Unprecedented inhibition of tubulin polymerization directed by gold nanoparticles inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis
Diptiman Choudhury,Paulrajpillai Lourdu Xavier,Kamalesh Chaudhari,Robin John,Anjan Kumar Dasgupta,Thalappil Pradeep,Gopal Chakrabarti +6 more
TL;DR: This first observation of nanoparticles-induced protein's conformational change-based aggregation of the tubulin-MT system is of high importance, and would be useful in the understanding of cancer therapeutics and safety of nanomaterials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosensing of Pesticides by Zinc Oxide Quantum Dot: An Optical and Electrochemical Approach for the Detection of Pesticides in Water
Dibakar Sahoo,Abhishek Mandal,Tapas Mitra,Kaushik Chakraborty,Munmun Bardhan,Anjan Kumar Dasgupta +5 more
TL;DR: Both optical and electrochemical measurements of QD, in tandem, as described in this study could be utilized as the pattern recognition sensor for detection of several pesticides.
Journal ArticleDOI
Therapeutic efficacy of artemisinin-loaded nanoparticles in experimental visceral leishmaniasis.
Muzamil Y Want,Mohammad Islamuddin,Garima Chouhan,Hani A. Ozbak,Hassan A. Hemeg,Anjan Kumar Dasgupta,Asoke P. Chattopadhyay,Farhat Afrin +7 more
TL;DR: The results advocate superior efficacy of ALPLGA nanoparticles over free artemisinin, which was coupled with restoration of suppressed cell-mediated immunity in animal models of VL.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermostability, pH stability and dye degrading activity of a bacterial laccase are enhanced in the presence of Cu2O nanoparticles.
TL;DR: The present study relates to a nanotechnology enabled method in which purified laccase from Escherichia coli AKL2 was supplemented with 100 μM copper oxide nanoparticles (Cu(2)O) (NP-laccase), which can be utilized for efficient decolorisation of dyes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of thermostability and activity of pectate lyase in the presence of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles.
TL;DR: The activity and half-life of pectate lyase (PL) from Bacillus megaterium were nine- and 60-fold, respectively, higher at 90 °C in the presence of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (NP-PLs) than in the absence of 1mM CaCl(2).
