THE REGULATORY ROLE OF SMALL RNAS IN PLANT DEVELOPMENT AND DEFENCE MECHANISM
Abstract: Small RNAs (sRNAs) are 20 to 40 nucleotides in length and plants use these regulatory RNAs to direct gene expression. In eukaryotes they act as a sequence-specific guide in several processes like assembly of heterochromatin, DNA elimination, mRNA cleavage and translational repression. Classes of sRNAs are categorized based on their origin and biogenesis. Out of all these, miRNAs and ta-siRNAs, constitute two important classes of endogenous small RNAs, are the …

Cow’s milk trigger for type 1 diabetes
Abstract: Diabetes is an autoimmune, metabolic disorder that occurs when the pancreas stops producing insulin hormones. Type 1 diabetes or juvenile diabetes may occur genetically due to viral infection, vitamin D deficiency and environmental factors. Cow’s milk protein is one of the causes for type 1 diabetes. Casein protein which is found in the cow’s milk is responsible for production of antibodies bovine β–lacto globulin. Such antibodies destroy the β cell …

Development of Plant Based Iron Rich Food Products and Their Efficacy Evaluation Using Food Based Approach
Abstract: Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most wide spread nutritional problem and affects over 2 billion people. The main reason for IDA has been determined to be inadequate intake of iron and low bioavailability (1-6%) of dietary iron from plant foods. Food based approaches to addressing IDA in India are being promoted, but information on to what extent food combination would improve the bioavailability of iron is fragmentary. Vitamin C …
