Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a family of type I transmembrane pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) that play a critical role in the innate immune system. They recognize specific molecular patterns from a wide variety of pathogens and initiate a signaling cascade that mobilizes the appropriate host defense. They are usually expressed on membrane of various subclasses of immune and non-immune cells such as macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, neutrophils, T-cells, B-cells, epithelial, endothelial and fibroblasts. In the present study, the genetic polymorphisms in Toll-like receptors 2 (TLR2) gene was investigated in indigenous cattle breeds Achai and Lohani of Khyber Pakhtoon Khawa (KPK) province of Pakistan. The complete sequences of TLR2 gene composed of 5?UTR 136bp, coding sequence 2355bp and 3?UTR 1316 bp. The distribution of polymorphisms was explored in the coding region of TLR2 gene in studied two cattle breeds. The phylogenetic analysis was performed on the basis of coding region of TLR2 gene showed that the Bos indicus, Bos taurus as the nearest neighbors with other species bubalus bubalis, Bos frontalis, Bos grunniens, and Bison bison. The Ovis aries and Capra hircus in a separate group with Capra ibex, Antidorcas marsupialis, Damaliscus pygargus and the chicken (Gallus gallus) was found to be the farthest specie. The ratio of dS/dN substitutions was <1 at polymorphic-sites indicating purifying selection. A total of seven polymorphisms were detected in Achai cattle breed, in which two variations were synonymous and five mutations were non-synonymous. In the analysis, four polymorphisms were transitions type mutations and three were transversion. The amino acid [aa] sequences analysis of the coding region (784 aa) revealed extracellular domain composed of 20 leucine-rich repeats (LRRs), trans membrane and Toll-IL receptor domains. A total of four mutations were observed in Extracellular domain, one in transmembrane domain, and two in TIR domain of TLR-2 protein in Achai cattle breed. The Lohani cattle breed was more polymorphic at TLR2 gene and a total of 41 polymorphisms were detected including 20 variations were synonymous and 21 were identified non-synonymous. Similarly, the amino acid [aa] sequences analysis of the coding region (784 aa) revealed 12 extracellular domain composed of 20 LRRs, trans membrane and Toll-IL receptor domains. A total of 25 polymorphisms were observed in the Extracellular domain, four in transmembrane domain and five in TIR domain, one in signal peptide. The predicted bovine TLR2 is a succulent like having energetic sites buried inside the concave side and forming a pocket for ligand-binding. The present study findings show that the variation may be associated with pathogens associated molecular pattern (PAMPs) mediated differential TLR-signaling of bovine immune response and could regulate the consequence of infection

شاہی قلعہ

شاہی قلعہ کے یہ کھنڈرات پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی کی ظلم و جبر کے خلاف ایک طویل جان گسل جد وجہد کی یاد دلاتے ہیں ۔کامریڈ امتیاز خان جو کہ لندن میں رہتے ہیں راولپنڈی میں محلے دار ہونے کے ساتھ ساتھ شاہی قلعہ میںبھی ہمسایہ تھے پاکستان گئے تو چند تصایر پوسٹ کر کے پرانی تلخ مگر خوبصورت یادیں تازہ کر دیں دن کو اگر یہ شاہی قلعہ تشدد مارپیٹ کی آوزوں سے گونجتا تھا تو شام ہوتے ہی ترانوں گانوں اور باتوں کی محفلیں سج جاتیں ۔جیالے پنجاب بھر سے گرفتار کر کے لائے جاتے رہے آخر شاہی قلعہ کے سیل کم پڑگئے تو 20نئے سیل بنانے پڑ گئے بہت سو کو تو لال قلعہ لاہور منتقل کیا گیا ۔اب سنا ہے کہ عقوبت خانوں کا یہ حصہ گر ا دیا گیا لیکن میں سمجھتا ہوںکہ اسے دوبارہ تعمیر ہو نا چاہیے کہ آنے والی نسلوں کو بتا سکیں کہ مارشل لا ء کے خاتمہ اور جمہوریت کے لیے جنگ لڑنے والوں کو کہاں اور کیسے رکھا جاتا تھا ۔

 

Effects of Carica Papaya and Psidium Guajava Extracts on Hepato-Renal Performance of Streptozotocin- Induced Diabetic Male Albino Rats Carica Papaya and Psidium Guajava Extracts & Diabetic rats

The growing number of diabetes coupled with the harsh side effects of some synthetic drugs has led to the increasing search for alternative medicine which are relatively cheap with minimum side effects. Objective: To investigate the anti-diabetic effect of ethanolic extract of Carica papaya and Psidiumguajava extracts separately and in combination, and the effect of treatment on hepato-renal performance. Methods: Papaya and guava leaves were macerated in 98% ethanol for extraction. Results: The result showed that ethanolic leaf extract of P. Guajava and C. Papaya significantly (P< 0.05) reduced blood glucose level, Total Cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and significant increase in high density lipoprotein (HDL) as compared to diabetic control group. Serum activities of liver enzymes such as aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was slightly elevated that indicate hepatotoxic nature of plant extracts. The level of gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), bilirubin and HbA1C level were restored to normal range. A slight reduction in body weight (P>0.05) of treated groups was observed. Serum urea and creatinine concentration was restored to normal level in treated rats with regeneration of kidney function. Conclusions: The study concluded that individual and combined plant extract show anti-hyperglycemic effect but the combined remedy at this dose show hepatotoxicity

Comparative Study of Various Decolorization Processes for Treatment of Synthetic Dyes

Azo dyes constitute the largest and most diverse group of dyes used in commercial applications. These dyes are carcinogenic and mutagenic in nature, as well as also create an aesthetic problem, so these must be removed before their disposal into water bodies. Various methods are in use for the decolorization of azo dyes. Every method has its own shortcomings and drawbacks. In this study, a comparative study was conducted to get the maximum decolorization of synthetic azo dyes and industrial effluents. Photo-Fenton’s process, biological and sequential methods were utilized for the decolorization of synthetic and real wastewater having azo dyes. In biological method, experiments was performed with five locally isolated indigenous white rot species, for the selection of two white rot fungal cultures based on their maximal decolorization potential. Different fermentation conditions (dye level, pH, inoculums size, temperature, mediators and metal ions) and nutritional factors (carbon and nitrogen sources) were optimized to enhance the efficiency of white rot fungal cultures for dye decolorization. In Photo-Fenton,s treatment method, the optimization of different experimental parameters (pH, FeSO4, H2O2, temperature and effects of salts) was done to get maximum decolorization (90%) of dye under study. Sequential methods were also studied) to investigate their effectiveness in the present study. The effectiveness of all treatment technologies was evaluated by water quality assurance parameters such as COD, BOD, TOC, TSS, phenolic contents ant toxicity assey, by following the standard methods of treatments. All treatments under study showed a good potential towards decolorization as well as mineralization, however, Sequential treatments showed best potential towards decolorization (up to 97%) as well as mineralization (up to 90%) of synthetic azo dyes. The uv-visible and FTIR spectral studies have shown decolorization as well as mineralization of dyes under study. An economic analysis has shown as the cost in the chemical treatment (Photo-Fenton treatment is considered mainly due to the chemicals, thus at lower doses (it is applied as a pre-treatment step), operating cost of the treatment can be saved. It was also found, that as the sequential carried out at lower dose of chemicals, so sludge production was almost negligible and the dye wastewater after sequential treatments fall within the safer limits, hence dispose off such treated water not be hazardous. Thus the overall treatment chain of Photo-Fenton oxidation followed by aerobic biological treatment could be quite effective and economical option for the treatment recalcitrant compounds like azo dyes in pilot plant scale.
