SIADH is a condition where the body produces too much of the antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also called vasopressin. This causes the body to retain too much water, diluting the sodium levels in the blood. Symptoms include excessive thirst, low blood sodium levels, and water retention that can lead to swelling of the legs, feet or hands if untreated.

Gastro intestinal tract part 4
The small intestine is composed of three parts - the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The duodenum is about 25cm long and has four parts. It is connected to the liver and contains the duodenal papilla through which the common bile duct and pancreatic duct empty. The jejunum is around 2.5m long and makes up the middle section of the small intestine. It contains circular folds and finger-like villi that increase its surface area for absorption. The ileum is around 3.5m long and contains Peyer's patches. It connects to the large intestine at the ileocecal valve.
Gastro intestinal tract –part ii oesophagus-stomach
The oesophagus connects the mouth to the stomach through the pharynx. It is approximately 25cm in length and has three parts - cervical, thoracic, and abdominal. Food passes through the upper esophageal sphincter into the oesophagus, triggering peristalsis to push the food bolus through in 6-15 seconds. The lower esophageal sphincter then opens to allow the food to enter the stomach and closes behind it to prevent acid reflux. The oesophagus wall has four layers but lacks a serosa, and receives parasympathetic and sympathetic innervation to control sphincters and peristalsis.
Digestive system Mouth
1) The gastrointestinal tract is approximately 9 meters long and runs from the mouth to the anus, mechanically and chemically breaking down food.
2) The mouth contains taste buds that detect the five basic tastes and contains salivary glands that produce saliva to moisten food for swallowing.
3) Chewing and swallowing propel food through the esophagus and into the stomach through peristalsis, where further digestion will occur.
Syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone release
Describes the secretion and functions of Antidiuretic hormone, abnormalities associated with ADH secretion, reasons of SIADH etc in details with figures.
First pass metabolism
This document discusses the three phases of detoxification. Phase III involves efflux transporters that transport substances transformed in Phase II out of cells. The best known transporter is P-glycoprotein, which eliminates conjugated metabolites from tissues. Transporters play a dual role in Phase III and in first pass metabolism by eliminating compounds before circulation. During first pass metabolism in the liver and intestines, compounds are biotransformed before reaching systemic circulation, resulting in lower bioavailability. Deconjugation by intestinal bacteria can recycle some compounds back through the liver via enterohepatic circulation.
Cloning
Describes different types of cloning, advantages and disadvantages of cloning, ethical implications of cloning animals etc.
Hypothalamus pituitary-thyroid
Second ppt on endocrine system, describing hypothalamus, pituitary and thyroid glands.
This describes the hormones from these glands and their mode of action etc
The endocrine system introduction
This is on the basic details of the endocrine system including the different types of hormones. It describes the mechanisms of actions of hormones. The general control mechanisms of hormone production and release are also included.

Chemical messengers
Describes the different types of chemical messengers in mammalian body. This explains their synthesis and mode of action also. A short account of neurohormones and neuroendocrine function is also included.
Heme synthesis
Heme synthesis is the biochemical pathway that produces heme, an iron-containing molecule that is an essential part of hemoglobin. The pathway has many steps that occur in both the cytosol and mitochondria of cells. A deficiency in any of the enzymes or substrates involved can cause a condition called porphyria. The first reaction is the rate-limiting step of condensing glycine and succinyl-CoA to form delta-aminolevulinic acid (ALA). Subsequent steps modify ALA and its derivatives to ultimately form protoporphyrin IX. The last step is the insertion of an iron ion into protoporphyrin IX by the enzyme ferrochelatase to complete heme synthesis.

Ramachandran plot
The document discusses the Ramachandran plot, which shows statistically probable combinations of the phi and psi backbone torsion angles in proteins. It describes how these two angles describe rotations around bonds in the polypeptide backbone and influence protein folding. The plot reveals allowed and disallowed regions based on steric clashes between atoms at different angle combinations. Common structures like alpha helices and beta sheets correspond to allowed regions in the plot.
Gi secretions

Digestive system basics
The gastrointestinal tract is approximately 9 meters long and runs from the mouth to the anus. It mechanically and chemically breaks down food. The document discusses the different parts of the GI tract including the mouth, tongue, taste buds, salivary glands, and swallowing process. It describes the roles and functions of these parts in digesting and moving food through the body.
Lipoprotein metabolism
Lipoproteins are complexes of lipids and proteins that transport lipids through the water-based blood system. They consist of a nonpolar lipid core of triglycerides and cholesterol esters surrounded by a single layer of amphipathic phospholipids and cholesterol. Apolipoproteins attached to the surface act as proteins. Lipoproteins are classified based on their density, which is determined by ultracentrifugation. The five major groups are chylomicrons, VLDL, IDL, LDL, and HDL.
Regulation of blood glucose
This document summarizes the regulation of blood glucose levels. It discusses how blood glucose levels fluctuate after meals and during fasting states. The pancreas plays a key role by secreting hormones like insulin and glucagon that work to maintain normal blood glucose levels. Insulin promotes glucose uptake by cells to lower blood glucose, while glucagon has the opposite effect of raising blood glucose levels. The body uses negative feedback loops and other hormones to precisely control blood glucose levels through processes like glycogenesis and glycogenolysis in the liver.
Detoxification phase i and ii
The document summarizes the two-phase process of detoxification in the liver. Phase I involves enzymatic reactions like oxidation and reduction that activate toxins. This can create reactive intermediates. Phase II then conjugates these intermediates to make them more water-soluble and able to be excreted. Many factors influence individual detoxification capacity, like genetic variations in enzyme expression as well as environmental exposures and nutrient status. Imbalances between phases can allow toxins to accumulate.
Transduction and transformation
Transduction is the process by which DNA is transferred between bacteria via a virus. It involves a bacteriophage infecting a bacterial cell and using the cell's machinery to produce new virus particles, which may incorporate small fragments of bacterial DNA into new viral genomes. This allows genetic material to be transferred from one bacterium to another without direct contact when the new viruses infect other bacteria. Transduction differs from transformation in that the transferred DNA is protected from DNase inside the viral particle. It is a molecular biology tool for introducing foreign DNA into host genomes.
Celldivision
Describes different stages in cell division, differences between mitosis and meiosis, need of two types of cell divisiion
Transformation
This document discusses genetic transformation, which is the alteration of a cell by incorporating exogenous DNA. It describes natural transformation in bacteria, which occurs when competent bacteria take up exogenous DNA from their environment. The document also discusses artificial transformation techniques used in labs, such as treating bacteria with calcium chloride to make them competent, then exposing them to exogenous DNA. It explains how the DNA enters the cell and can become incorporated into the genome. Selection methods for transformed cells, such as antibiotic resistance markers, are also summarized.
Resting membranepotential
1) The resting membrane potential of a mammalian nerve cell is -90mV, maintained by the sodium-potassium pump that pumps 3Na+ ions out of the cell for every 2K+ ions into the cell.
2) An action potential occurs when the membrane potential rapidly changes from negative to positive and back again. It is triggered when voltage-gated sodium channels open and allow sodium ions to rush into the cell, reversing the potential.
3) Voltage-gated potassium channels then open, allowing potassium ions to efflux and repolarize the membrane back to its resting potential. The sodium-potassium pump then restores the ion gradients across the membrane.
Biosynthesis of catecholamines
1. The document summarizes the biosynthesis of catecholamines such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine.
2. It describes the multi-step enzymatic pathway beginning with tyrosine and involving rate-limiting enzymes such as tyrosine hydroxylase.
3. Regulation of catecholamine synthesis involves negative feedback and neuronal firing rate control of the enzymes in the pathway.
Pulse tripleresponse
The document summarizes the arterial pulse, venous pulse, circulation time, and the triple response of Lewis. It describes where arterial and venous pulses can be measured, factors that influence circulation time, and provides details on the triple response of Lewis - an initial red line followed by a flare and wheal caused by the release of histamine from mast cells. Normal pulse rates are also outlined for different age groups.
Random amplified polymorphic dna (rapd)
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) is a type of PCR that uses short, arbitrary primers to randomly amplify DNA fragments. Several primers are used in PCR with genomic DNA to generate unique band patterns. RAPD does not require prior knowledge of DNA sequences and can detect mutations if they occur where the primer binds. However, it has lower resolution than targeted methods and results can be difficult to interpret. RAPD analyzes 100 to 3000 base pair fragments and computer programs can analyze the profiles.

Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

Embracing Deep Variability For Reproducibility and Replicability
Abstract: Reproducibility (aka determinism in some cases) constitutes a fundamental aspect in various fields of computer science, such as floating-point computations in numerical analysis and simulation, concurrency models in parallelism, reproducible builds for third parties integration and packaging, and containerization for execution environments. These concepts, while pervasive across diverse concerns, often exhibit intricate inter-dependencies, making it challenging to achieve a comprehensive understanding. In this short and vision paper we delve into the application of software engineering techniques, specifically variability management, to systematically identify and explicit points of variability that may give rise to reproducibility issues (eg language, libraries, compiler, virtual machine, OS, environment variables, etc). The primary objectives are: i) gaining insights into the variability layers and their possible interactions, ii) capturing and documenting configurations for the sake of reproducibility, and iii) exploring diverse configurations to replicate, and hence validate and ensure the robustness of results. By adopting these methodologies, we aim to address the complexities associated with reproducibility and replicability in modern software systems and environments, facilitating a more comprehensive and nuanced perspective on these critical aspects.

Microbial interaction
Microorganisms interacts with each other and can be physically associated with another organisms in a variety of ways.
One organism can be located on the surface of another organism as an ectobiont or located within another organism as endobiont.
Microbial interaction may be positive such as mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism or may be negative such as parasitism, predation or competition
Types of microbial interaction
Positive interaction: mutualism, proto-cooperation, commensalism
Negative interaction: Ammensalism (antagonism), parasitism, predation, competition
I. Mutualism:
It is defined as the relationship in which each organism in interaction gets benefits from association. It is an obligatory relationship in which mutualist and host are metabolically dependent on each other.
Mutualistic relationship is very specific where one member of association cannot be replaced by another species.
Mutualism require close physical contact between interacting organisms.
Relationship of mutualism allows organisms to exist in habitat that could not occupied by either species alone.
Mutualistic relationship between organisms allows them to act as a single organism.
Examples of mutualism:
i. Lichens:
Lichens are excellent example of mutualism.
They are the association of specific fungi and certain genus of algae. In lichen, fungal partner is called mycobiont and algal partner is called
II. Syntrophism:
It is an association in which the growth of one organism either depends on or improved by the substrate provided by another organism.
In syntrophism both organism in association gets benefits.
Compound A
Utilized by population 1
Compound B
Utilized by population 2
Compound C
utilized by both Population 1+2
Products
In this theoretical example of syntrophism, population 1 is able to utilize and metabolize compound A, forming compound B but cannot metabolize beyond compound B without co-operation of population 2. Population 2is unable to utilize compound A but it can metabolize compound B forming compound C. Then both population 1 and 2 are able to carry out metabolic reaction which leads to formation of end product that neither population could produce alone.
Examples of syntrophism:
i. Methanogenic ecosystem in sludge digester
Methane produced by methanogenic bacteria depends upon interspecies hydrogen transfer by other fermentative bacteria.
Anaerobic fermentative bacteria generate CO2 and H2 utilizing carbohydrates which is then utilized by methanogenic bacteria (Methanobacter) to produce methane.
ii. Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis:
In the minimal media, Lactobacillus arobinosus and Enterococcus faecalis are able to grow together but not alone.
The synergistic relationship between E. faecalis and L. arobinosus occurs in which E. faecalis require folic acid

SDSS1335+0728: The awakening of a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole⋆
Context. The early-type galaxy SDSS J133519.91+072807.4 (hereafter SDSS1335+0728), which had exhibited no prior optical variations during the preceding two decades, began showing significant nuclear variability in the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) alert stream from December 2019 (as ZTF19acnskyy). This variability behaviour, coupled with the host-galaxy properties, suggests that SDSS1335+0728 hosts a ∼ 106M⊙ black hole (BH) that is currently in the process of ‘turning on’. Aims. We present a multi-wavelength photometric analysis and spectroscopic follow-up performed with the aim of better understanding the origin of the nuclear variations detected in SDSS1335+0728. Methods. We used archival photometry (from WISE, 2MASS, SDSS, GALEX, eROSITA) and spectroscopic data (from SDSS and LAMOST) to study the state of SDSS1335+0728 prior to December 2019, and new observations from Swift, SOAR/Goodman, VLT/X-shooter, and Keck/LRIS taken after its turn-on to characterise its current state. We analysed the variability of SDSS1335+0728 in the X-ray/UV/optical/mid-infrared range, modelled its spectral energy distribution prior to and after December 2019, and studied the evolution of its UV/optical spectra. Results. From our multi-wavelength photometric analysis, we find that: (a) since 2021, the UV flux (from Swift/UVOT observations) is four times brighter than the flux reported by GALEX in 2004; (b) since June 2022, the mid-infrared flux has risen more than two times, and the W1−W2 WISE colour has become redder; and (c) since February 2024, the source has begun showing X-ray emission. From our spectroscopic follow-up, we see that (i) the narrow emission line ratios are now consistent with a more energetic ionising continuum; (ii) broad emission lines are not detected; and (iii) the [OIII] line increased its flux ∼ 3.6 years after the first ZTF alert, which implies a relatively compact narrow-line-emitting region. Conclusions. We conclude that the variations observed in SDSS1335+0728 could be either explained by a ∼ 106M⊙ AGN that is just turning on or by an exotic tidal disruption event (TDE). If the former is true, SDSS1335+0728 is one of the strongest cases of an AGNobserved in the process of activating. If the latter were found to be the case, it would correspond to the longest and faintest TDE ever observed (or another class of still unknown nuclear transient). Future observations of SDSS1335+0728 are crucial to further understand its behaviour. Key words. galaxies: active– accretion, accretion discs– galaxies: individual: SDSS J133519.91+072807.4
Alternate Wetting and Drying - Climate Smart Agriculture
Alternate Wetting and Drying - Climate Smart AgricultureInternational Food Policy Research Institute- South Asia Office
PPT on Alternate Wetting and Drying presented at the three-day 'Training and Validation Workshop on Modules of Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) Technologies in South Asia' workshop on April 22, 2024. JAMES WEBB STUDY THE MASSIVE BLACK HOLE SEEDS
The pathway(s) to seeding the massive black holes (MBHs) that exist at the heart of galaxies in the present and distant Universe remains an unsolved problem. Here we categorise, describe and quantitatively discuss the formation pathways of both light and heavy seeds. We emphasise that the most recent computational models suggest that rather than a bimodal-like mass spectrum between light and heavy seeds with light at one end and heavy at the other that instead a continuum exists. Light seeds being more ubiquitous and the heavier seeds becoming less and less abundant due the rarer environmental conditions required for their formation. We therefore examine the different mechanisms that give rise to different seed mass spectrums. We show how and why the mechanisms that produce the heaviest seeds are also among the rarest events in the Universe and are hence extremely unlikely to be the seeds for the vast majority of the MBH population. We quantify, within the limits of the current large uncertainties in the seeding processes, the expected number densities of the seed mass spectrum. We argue that light seeds must be at least 103 to 105 times more numerous than heavy seeds to explain the MBH population as a whole. Based on our current understanding of the seed population this makes heavy seeds (Mseed > 103 M⊙) a significantly more likely pathway given that heavy seeds have an abundance pattern than is close to and likely in excess of 10−4 compared to light seeds. Finally, we examine the current state-of-the-art in numerical calculations and recent observations and plot a path forward for near-future advances in both domains.
