Journal ArticleDOI
PLGA nanoformulation of sparfloxacin enhanced antibacterial activity with photoprotective potential under ambient UV-R exposure.

TL;DR: The finding suggests that controlled release of SPFX from PLGA-SPFX-NPs can reduce its side effects and enhance its antibacterial activity and nanotization of fluoroquinolones will be a significant step to reduce the problem of resistance and phototoxicity of this group.
Journal Article
Mediator substances of the pineal neuronal network of mammals.
TL;DR: In addition to receptor-type pinealocytes, the mammalian pineal organ contains small and large neurons and ependymal/glial cells as well and axons containing granular vesicles and coming from extrapineal perikarya are glutamate immunoreactive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ambient UV-B exposure reduces the binding of ofloxacin with bacterial DNA gyrase and induces DNA damage mediated apoptosis
Jyoti Singh,Ashish Dwivedi,Syed Faiz Mujtaba,Krishna P. Singh,Manish Kumar Pal,Deepti Chopra,Shruti Goyal,Shruti Goyal,Ajeet K. Srivastav,Divya Dubey,Shailendra K. Gupta,Chandana Haldar,Ratan Singh Ray,Ratan Singh Ray +13 more
TL;DR: The study illustrated that binding affinity of OFLX photo-products with DNA gyrase was mainly responsible for the attenuated antimicrobial activity and suggested that sunlight exposure should avoid by drug users especially during peak hours for their safety from photosensitivity.
Journal Article
Diurnal variations in circulating estradiol, testosterone, melatonin and harderian gland porphyrin concentration in Indian palm squirrel, Funambulus pennanti.
Chandana Haldar,Dubey S +1 more
TL;DR: A two-peak cyclicity in the plasma level of melatonin, estradiol/testosterone and Harderian porphyrin was noted in F. pennanti, suggesting that the variation ofharderian, porphirin concentration may be under the control of both, circulating melatonin and gonadal steroids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immune responses of Indian Jungle Bush Quail, P. asiatica, to different photoperiodic regimens during the reproductively inactive phase
TL;DR: The immune status and melatonin level had a direct relationship but shared an inverse relationship with that of the gonadal activity of the birds, indicating that even in the tropical zone the immunity relies on photoperiodic time measurement mechanisms that include the pineal gland andMelatonin to relay photoperperiodic changes in physiological and behavioural components of immune function.
