Phenolic bioactives as antiplatelet aggregation factors: the pivotal ingredient...
Sharifi-Rad, Javad; Quispe, Cristina; Zam, Wissam; Kumar, Manoj; Cardoso, Susana M.; Pereira, Olívia R.; Ademiluyi, Adedayo O.; Adeleke, OluwakemiCardiovascular diseases (CVD) are one of the main causes of mortality in the world. The development of these diseases has a specific factor—alteration in blood platelet activation. It has been shown that phenolic compounds have antiplatelet aggregation abilities and a positive impact in the management of CVD, exerting prominent antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, cardioprotective, antihyperglycemic, and ...
The therapeutic potential of wogonin observed in preclinical studies
Sharifi-Rad, Javad; Herrera-Bravo, Jesús; Salazar, Luis A.; Shaheen, Shabnum; Abdulmajid Ayatollahi, Seyed; Kobarfard, Farzad; Imran, MuhammadWogonin is a flavonoid found in different plants such as roots of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi distributed mainly in Asia and Europe. Dried root extracts of S. baicalensis with high content of wogonin, popularly known as "Huang-Qin" or Chinese or baical skullcap, have been used for long time in traditional Chinese medicine. Several health benefits are attributed to wogonin and derivatives showing anti-inflamm...
An Effective Image Fusion Technique based on Multiresolution Singular Value Dec...
Gautam, Sonam; Kumar, ManojThe main objective of image fusion is to combine the multiple images of same scene into a single image having more information and better visual appearance, without introducing any artifacts. In this paper, a new multifocus image fusion scheme based on sharpness and Multiresolution Singular Value Decomposition (MSVD) is proposed to get an image with better visual quality. The proposed scheme is conducted into t...
Novel insights into the genetic and epigenetic paternal contribution to the hum...
Kumar, Manoj; Kumar, Kishlay; Jain, Shalu; Hassan, Tarannum; Dada, RimaThe integrity of the sperm genome and epigenome are critical for normal embryonic development. The advent of assisted reproductive technology has led to an increased understanding of the role of sperm in fertilization and embryogenesis. During fertilization, the sperm transmits not only nuclear DNA to the oocyte but also activation factor, centrosomes, and a host of messenger RNA and microRNAs. This complex com...
A Shape from Shading Approach for the Reconstruction of Polyhedral Objects usin...
Kumar, Manoj; Bhargava, Rama; Balasubramanian, R.This paper presents a robust approach for the reconstruction of polyhedral objects from line drawings. Minimization technique has been used in this approach by exploiting the shading information contained in the image. The minimization energy function has been formulated between observed and calculated value of image intensity under the Lambertian reflectance model. Various constraints e.g. the surface normal c...
