Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage cells. They are produced through normal cell processes and external factors like pollution and smoking. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a type of free radical involving oxygen. ROS can damage DNA and proteins, contributing to cancer development. ROS also cause oxidative stress, an imbalance that promotes carcinogenesis. Antioxidants may help prevent cancer by reducing oxidative stress, though some research indicates controlled oxidative stress through substances like vitamin C can also fight tumors. Curcumin in turmeric has shown anti-cancer effects by down-regulating inflammatory genes and enzymes linked to cancer.

Free radicals in human diseases and the roleMohammed Sakr
Free radicals reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species are generated by our body by various endogenous systems, exposure to different physiochemical conditions or pathological states. A balance between free radicals and antioxidants is necessary for proper physiological function. If free radicals overwhelm the body's ability to regulate them, a condition known as oxidative stress ensues. Free radicals thus adversely alter lipids, proteins, and DNA and trigger a number of human diseases. Free radicals are a main cause of cardiovascular diseases, cancer, aging and immune defense disorders. Foods like berries and carrot protect us against free radicals.

ROLE OF FREE RADICAL IN NEURODEGENERATIVE DISEASE
Oxidative stress in AD??
Oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between t he production and quenching of free radicals from oxygen species. These reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in many chronic diseases including mitochondrial diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, renal disease, arteriosclerosis, diabetes , cancer.
The process of aging is also associated with increased oxidative stress. Through pathological redox reactions ROS can denature biomolecules such as proteins, lipids and nucleic acids. This can initiate tissue damage via apoptosis and necrosis.
Oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathogenesis of AD leading to neuronal dysfunction and cell death.
Peripheral markers of oxidative stress are elevated in AD indicating that the damage is not brain-limited.
The increased level of oxidative stress in the AD brain is reflected by
increased protein and DNA oxidation,
Decreased level of cytochrome C oxidase and advanced glycosylation end products.
enhanced lipid peroxidation,
Lipid peroxidation can weaken cell membranes causes ion imbalance and impair metabolism.
Oxidative stress can influence DNA methylation which regulates gene expression.
Internalized beta-amyloid may play a role in this process.
Mitochondrial dysfunction, which is associated with an accumulation of ROS, appears to play a role in the early events of AD pathology.

Genotoxicity studies can be defined as various in-vitro and in-vivo tests designed to identify any substance or compounds which may induce damage to genetic material either directly or indirectly by various mechanisms. These tests should enable the identification of hazard with respect to DNA damage and fixation.
External agents like carcinogens, pollutants, ionizing radiations produce oxidative stress in living cells generating reactive oxygen
species [ROS]. Cells have built in defense against these reactive species and keep a balance between generated ROS and their
neutralization by endogenous antioxidants [AO]. In addition, many antioxidants present in our diets react with the ROS and make
them inactive. The maintenance of balance is a continuous process inside cells to keep them functioning normally. When
generation of ROS exceeds the level of endogenous and externally added AOs , cells are driven to pathogenic state leading to
diseases. A variety of dietary AOs are available from various sources of fruits and vegetables. This paper aims to review the
molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress, generation and reactions of ROS with vital molecules such as DNA, Protein and
membrane and involvement of ROS in the induction of cancer and other diseases. An attempt is made to suggest ways to reduce
cancer incidence risks , need to modify dietary foods by consuming vegetables, fruits for chemo prevention. An example has been
given to emphasize the role of curcumin as an antioxidant in the mechanism of chemoprevention.

Our bodies are made up of millions of cells, grouped together to form tissues and organs such as muscles and bones, the lungs and the liver. Genes inside each cell order it to grow, work, reproduce and die. Normally, our cells obey these orders and we remain healthy. But sometimes the instructions get mixed up, causing the cells to form lumps or tumors, or spread through the bloodstream and lymphatic system to other parts of the body.

Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Introduction:
RNA interference (RNAi) or Post-Transcriptional Gene Silencing (PTGS) is an important biological process for modulating eukaryotic gene expression.
It is highly conserved process of posttranscriptional gene silencing by which double stranded RNA (dsRNA) causes sequence-specific degradation of mRNA sequences.
dsRNA-induced gene silencing (RNAi) is reported in a wide range of eukaryotes ranging from worms, insects, mammals and plants.
This process mediates resistance to both endogenous parasitic and exogenous pathogenic nucleic acids, and regulates the expression of protein-coding genes.
What are small ncRNAs?
micro RNA (miRNA)
short interfering RNA (siRNA)
Properties of small non-coding RNA:
Involved in silencing mRNA transcripts.
Called “small” because they are usually only about 21-24 nucleotides long.
Synthesized by first cutting up longer precursor sequences (like the 61nt one that Lee discovered).
Silence an mRNA by base pairing with some sequence on the mRNA.
Discovery of siRNA?
The first small RNA:
In 1993 Rosalind Lee (Victor Ambros lab) was studying a non- coding gene in C. elegans, lin-4, that was involved in silencing of another gene, lin-14, at the appropriate time in the
development of the worm C. elegans.
Two small transcripts of lin-4 (22nt and 61nt) were found to be complementary to a sequence in the 3' UTR of lin-14.
Because lin-4 encoded no protein, she deduced that it must be these transcripts that are causing the silencing by RNA-RNA interactions.
Types of RNAi ( non coding RNA)
MiRNA
Length (23-25 nt)
Trans acting
Binds with target MRNA in mismatch
Translation inhibition
Si RNA
Length 21 nt.
Cis acting
Bind with target Mrna in perfect complementary sequence
Piwi-RNA
Length ; 25 to 36 nt.
Expressed in Germ Cells
Regulates trnasposomes activity
MECHANISM OF RNAI:
First the double-stranded RNA teams up with a protein complex named Dicer, which cuts the long RNA into short pieces.
Then another protein complex called RISC (RNA-induced silencing complex) discards one of the two RNA strands.
The RISC-docked, single-stranded RNA then pairs with the homologous mRNA and destroys it.
THE RISC COMPLEX:
RISC is large(>500kD) RNA multi- protein Binding complex which triggers MRNA degradation in response to MRNA
Unwinding of double stranded Si RNA by ATP independent Helicase
Active component of RISC is Ago proteins( ENDONUCLEASE) which cleave target MRNA.
DICER: endonuclease (RNase Family III)
Argonaute: Central Component of the RNA-Induced Silencing Complex (RISC)
One strand of the dsRNA produced by Dicer is retained in the RISC complex in association with Argonaute
ARGONAUTE PROTEIN :
1.PAZ(PIWI/Argonaute/ Zwille)- Recognition of target MRNA
2.PIWI (p-element induced wimpy Testis)- breaks Phosphodiester bond of mRNA.)RNAse H activity.
MiRNA:
The Double-stranded RNAs are naturally produced in eukaryotic cells during development, and they have a key role in regulating gene expression .
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.
Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
Cancer cell metabolism: special Reference to Lactate PathwayAADYARAJPANDEY1
Normal Cell Metabolism:
Cellular respiration describes the series of steps that cells use to break down sugar and other chemicals to get the energy we need to function.
Energy is stored in the bonds of glucose and when glucose is broken down, much of that energy is released.
Cell utilize energy in the form of ATP.
The first step of respiration is called glycolysis. In a series of steps, glycolysis breaks glucose into two smaller molecules - a chemical called pyruvate. A small amount of ATP is formed during this process.
Most healthy cells continue the breakdown in a second process, called the Kreb's cycle. The Kreb's cycle allows cells to “burn” the pyruvates made in glycolysis to get more ATP.
The last step in the breakdown of glucose is called oxidative phosphorylation (Ox-Phos).
It takes place in specialized cell structures called mitochondria. This process produces a large amount of ATP. Importantly, cells need oxygen to complete oxidative phosphorylation.
If a cell completes only glycolysis, only 2 molecules of ATP are made per glucose. However, if the cell completes the entire respiration process (glycolysis - Kreb's - oxidative phosphorylation), about 36 molecules of ATP are created, giving it much more energy to use.
IN CANCER CELL:
Unlike healthy cells that "burn" the entire molecule of sugar to capture a large amount of energy as ATP, cancer cells are wasteful.
Cancer cells only partially break down sugar molecules. They overuse the first step of respiration, glycolysis. They frequently do not complete the second step, oxidative phosphorylation.
This results in only 2 molecules of ATP per each glucose molecule instead of the 36 or so ATPs healthy cells gain. As a result, cancer cells need to use a lot more sugar molecules to get enough energy to survive.

introduction to WARBERG PHENOMENA:
WARBURG EFFECT Usually, cancer cells are highly glycolytic (glucose addiction) and take up more glucose than do normal cells from outside.
Otto Heinrich Warburg (; 8 October 1883 – 1 August 1970) In 1931 was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology for his "discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme.
WARNBURG EFFECT : cancer cells under aerobic (well-oxygenated) conditions to metabolize glucose to lactate (aerobic glycolysis) is known as the Warburg effect. Warburg made the observation that tumor slices consume glucose and secrete lactate at a higher rate than normal tissues.
2. What are free Radicals ?
Free radicals ionised particals in human body.
Free radicals are produced by normal cell metabolism or external factor
such as polution,
cigarette smocking, and
radiations etc..
They plays a major role in development of chronic and degenerative
disease such as Cancer and Neurodegenerative diseases.
3. How free radicals are formed ?
Normally , Bonds don’t split in a way that leaves a molecule with an
odd,unpaired electron, But when weak bonds split, free radicals are
formed.
Free radicals are very unstable and react quickly with other compounds
Any free radical involving oxygen can be referred to as Reactive Oxygen
Species(ROS)
6. Types of Endogenous free Radicals
The most important free radicals in the body are the radical derivatives of
oxygen better known as reactive oxygen species.
Carbon-

9. Cancer and it’s Types
Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth,and further it
spreads to other parts of the body.
Or
Cancer develops when normal cells in a particular part of the body begin to
grow out of control.
Blood cancer
Lung cancer
Breast cancer
Prostate cancer
Uterine cancer ….. And many more
10. Background of Cancer
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world after
cardiovascular diseases.
The word cancer came from a Greek words karkinos to describe
carcinoma tumors by a physician Hippocrates (460–370 B.C), but he was
not the first to discover this disease. Some of the earliest evidence of
human bone cancer was found in mummies in ancient Egypt and in ancient
manuscripts dates about 1600 B.C.
11. Some risk factors involves in Cancers
Age
Alcohol
Chronic Inflammation
Diet
Hormones
Infectious Agents
Obesity
Radiation
Sunlight
Tobacco
13. Impact of free radicals in cell
proliferation
-Inflammation begins with a
reaction to an irritant or
infection that is
characterized by
movement of
fluid and white blood cells
into extravascular tissue.
14. Conti…
This can activate a process
called lipid peroxidation and
the arachidonic-acid cascade,
with the
production of cell-
proliferation-stimulating
eicosanoids.
malondialdehyde (MDA) 4-
hydroxynonenol (4-HNE),
The free radicals can also
damage DNA and modify the
structure and function of
cancer-related proteins
directly. OH•, hydroxyl
radical; O2
–•, superoxide; NO•, nitric
oxide;
16. Role of ROS in development of Cancer
It is well known that species derived from oxygen are cytotoxic and are
involved in the etiology of cancer.
Several carcinogens during metabolism exert their effect by producing
reactive oxygen species (ROS), It plays a vital role in the process of
carcinogenesis
ROS are generated specifically to answer necessary biological functions,
whereas in other cases, they indicate byproducts of metabolic processes.
Free radical linked damage of Proteins and DNA has been suggested to
play a major role in the development of diseases such as neurodegenerative
disorders, arthritis, arteriosclerosis, cancer, and others diseases
17. Role of ROS in development of Cancer
Some researches says reducing and inactivation of antioxidant system, the
oxidative stress (OS) in cancer cells is higher , Cancer cells exhibit a higher
oxidative stress level compared to normal cells.
Alterations , including rearrangement of DNA sequence,
base modification,
DNA miscoding lesions,
gene amplification, and
activation of oncogenes, could be implicated in
the initiation stage of several cancers.
18. Couses of oxydative stress involving in
Carcinogenesis
Oxidative stress is an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the ability of the body to
detoxify their harmful effects by antioxidants.
19. Free radical damage in DNA and cause
Cancer
DNA is a major target of free radicals to damage
The types of damages includes
strand breaks (single or double strand breaks),
various forms of base damage
yielding products such as 8-hydroxyguanosine, thymine glycol
etc.
These damages can result mutations that are heritable change in the DNA
that can yield cancer in somatic cells.
20. Conti…
Cancer develops through an accumulation of genetic changes. Initiating
agents can be
Tobacco smoking and chewing,
UV rays of sunlight,
Radiation,
Viruses,
Chemical pollutants, etc.
Promoting agents include hormones
Example: Androgens for prostate cancer, estrogens for breast cancer and
ovarian cancer.
21. How to prevent cancer
Experimental as well as epidemiological data indicate that a variety of
nutritional factors can act as antioxidants and inhibit the process of cancer
development and reduce cancer risk.
Some of these include vitamins A,
vitamin C,
vitamin E,
Beta-catotene, and
micronutrients such as antioxidants and anticarcinogens.
22. Turmeric as a therapeutic agent in Cancer
Inflammation induces iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) as well as
COX and LOX. These can initiate carcinogenesis.
The active principle of Curcuma longa (Turmeric, Haldi) - curcumin,
down-regulates the expression of COX2, LOX, iNOS, MMP-9, TNF,
chemokines and other cell-surface adhesion molecules.
Human clinical trials have shown safety at doses upto 10 g/day curcumin,
which can suppress tumour initiation, promotion and metastasis
23. Vitamin C Chelation
In a study published in Free Radical Biology & Medicine, vitamin C
chelation therapy was found to be highly pro-oxidant after just one hour of
treatment. This benefit lasted more than 16 treatments in the absence of
nutrient supplementation and even provided “beneficial long-term
antioxidant effects.”
It was discovered that, “Pro-oxidant effects appear to be responsible for
destroying tumor cells. These pro-oxidant effects may also induce
endogenous antioxidant systems in normal tissues that offer protection
against carcinogenic insult
24. Curcumin as a therapeutic agent in
Cancer
Number of laboratory studies on cancer cells suggest that
curcumin does have anticancer effects. It seems to be able to
fight cancer cells and prevent more from growing. It seems to
be most effective against breast cancer, bowel
cancer, stomach cancer and skin cancer cells.
Researchers have reported that curcumin block the formation
of cancer-causing enzymes in rodents in preclinical trials.
