Paper Title: Genotoxicity of cerium oxide nanoparticle in zebrafish and green mussel Perna viridis using alkaline comet assay
Abstract: Cerium oxide nanoparticles or nanoceria has versatile application in biomedical, solar cells and gas sensors. Increasing utilization of nanoceria has raised concerns over its release to environment and potential exposure. In vitro studies have shown its genotoxic potential, but reports on aquatic life are very limited. In this study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) and green mussel (Perna viridis) was exposed to different concentration 10, 20, 50 µg/l of nanoceria for 24, 72, and 120 h and the genotoxic response was measured using comet assay. The results showed significant (p < 0.05) increase in tail DNA (TDNA) and olive tail moment (OTM) as measured using comet assay in exposed animals as compared to control. The highest TDNA and OTM were measured after 120 h of exposure with 50 µg/l of nanoceria in zebrafish as well as in green mussel. The results of this study demonstrate that short-term exposure to nanoceria causes genotoxic response in zebrafish and green mussel, hence its environmental release should be carefully monitored.
In each, Eurasia International conference, Best Paper award is given to Best Researches. In Teaching and Education Research Association (TERA), Best paper award is given to the participants with the best scholarly paper submitted and presented at the conference.

Paper Title: Moringa oleifera and Marrubium vulgare L. leaf aqueous extract inhibit inflammatory response in S. typhimurium-infected mice.
Abstract: The current study aimed to evaluate immunomodulatory effect of Moringa oleifera and Marrubium vulgare leaf aqueous extracts as single and as combination in Salmonella typhimurium-infected mice. The immunomodulatory effect were evaluated as cure agent (in mice previously infected with S. typhimurium) and as protective agent (in mice infected with S. typhimurium at the end of treatment period). Methods: Fifty female BALB/c mice, aged 7-9 weeks were divided into 10 groups: control positive group (C+), normal mice (C-), protective groups (P1, P2 & P3) and cure groups (P4, P5, P6, P7 and P8). Different concentration (100, 500 and 1000 mg/kg BW) of each plant extract were used as single and as combination for 14 days. At the end of the treatment period, all mice were sectioned and mice splenocytes were isolated. Immunomodulatory markers were checked using flow-cytometry which include CD4+CD8+, CD4+CD62L+, CD8+CD62L+, CD8+IL17+ and CD8+IFN-γ+. Results: The results showed that the leaf aqueous extract of M. oleifera produced potential immunomodulatory effects as protective and cure agent. The single treatment of M. oleifera as cure agent (P4) leading to a significant decrease in the double positive (CD4+CD8+) T cells activation and production of IL-17 and IFN-γ. Furthermore, the level of naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were increased significantly (p<0.05) after single treatment with M. oleifera as protective agent (P1). M. oleifera and M. vulgare as cure agent also showed immunomodulatory effect in the level of double positive T cells, IL-17 and IFN-γ at low dose (P6, 100 mg/kg BW), whereas the level of naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells increased at high dose of M. oleifera and M. vulgare. However, the immunomodulatory effects were higher during single treatment with M. oleifera. Conclusion: These results suggest that single treatment with M. oleifera extract more effectiveness than combination treatments with M. vulgare in S.typhimurium-infected mice. These findings have proven that M. oleifera and M. vulgare will be a very good material for future herbal medicine.

Paper Title: Novel regulators of female reproduction
Abstract: Development in animal biotechnology, assisted reproduction, human and veterinary medicine requires search for new regulators of reproductive functions. This is the review of original data concerning the role of some metabolic hormones (GH, leptin, ghrelin, obestatin), growth factors (IGF-I, IGFBPs, EGF, thrombopoietin), intracellular mediators of their action (cyclic nucleotides, protein kinases, transcription factors and related cDNA, siRNA and miRNA gene constructs) on basic ovarian functions (cell proliferation, apoptosis, secretion, oogenesis, ovulation, production and viability of pups) in different species (pig, rabbit, humans and chicken). Practical applications of some these molecules for characterization, prediction and control of reproductive processes in these species was examined too.

Paper Title: Surface Functionalization of Poly (3-Hydroxybutyrate-Co-4-Hydroxybutyrate) Scaffolds as Potential Biomaterial
Abstract: The biomaterial surface plays a crucial role as it forms the interface between the scaffold and the cells. Polymers have exhibited poor cell attachment capability due to the hydrophobic and lack of cell recognition sites thus, limiting their application. There are numerous approaches in functionalizing a biomaterial. In this study, we propose to investigate the biofunctionalization of P(3HB-co-4HB) biopolymer using short peptide sequences [Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)] to enhance cell attachment, proliferation and cell material interaction. Recently, we have proven that nanofibrous P(3HB-co-4HB) biopolymer has enhanced the biocompatibility and cell attachment efficacy of the biopolymer. The P(3HB-co-4HB) will be electrospun in an attempt to mimic an extracellular matrix structure and RGD will be immobilized onto the surface. A P(3HB-co-4HB) mixture dissolved in 1:4 volume of dimethylformamide and chloroform will be electrospun to produce a nanofiber scaffolds and RGD, will be covalently grafted onto the surface of the electrospun P(3HB-co-4HB) by aminolysis. Due to the fibrous framework of the nano-P(3HB-co-4HB) matrix which mimics the extracellular matrix, immobilization of RGD peptide in improving the functional characteristics and microenvironment of the scaffold as potential cardiac patch will be investigated. The goal of this study is to fabricate nano-P(3HB-co-4HB)-RGD scaffold aimed to address the common problem faced in cardiac tissue engineering by achieving a surface with favorable characteristics that enhances cell attachment and maturation.

Abstract: The development of type 2 diabetes (T2D) is contributed by unhealthy diet and sedentary lifestyle. However, the precise mechanism involved is not entirely identified. Various experimental models are used to study T2D including genetic- and chemically induced- models. Unfortunately, these models are much different from the T2D in general population. In addition, although there are increasing studies on therapeutic approaches for T2D, the studies emphasized on environmental enrichment (EE) are limited.

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is particularly prevalent in Latin Americans (14.4% twice as high as for non-Hispanic whites in the US) and the prevalence of diabetes in the UAE adult citizens in the Northern Emirates was 25.1% from a total of 872 Emirati were studied. More effective therapeutic strategy is urgently needed for preventing and treating diabetes to avoid diabetic complications. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 2015 to Chinese Medicine Scientist encourages us as Chinese Medicine scientists to translate the precious gift “Traditional Chinese Medicine” (TCM) from China to the world. TCM is a complete medical system that has been used to diagnose, treat, and prevent illnesses for more than 2,000 years. The aim of this study is to summarize the evidences from three randomized clinical trials among Chinese of the efficiency of TCM on the prevention and treatment on diabetes and some of its complications. First a multicenter randomized clinical trials (RCT): a total of 420 individuals from 11 hospitals with impaired glucose tolerance were administrated Chinese medicine decoction (Tianqi capsule) for 12 months. The reduction of the risk of diabetes was 32.1% compared with placebo. No severe adverse events occurred. Second multicenter RCT: 480 overweight patients with early stage T2DM were recruited and were randomly divided into two groups, Chinese medicine decoction GQD and placebo for 12 week. The results showed that GQD reduced 1.02% of HBA1c in average compared with 0.47% in the placebo group. In another RCT study of GQD, 187 patients, with early stage T2DM from 4 hospitals in China, were treated with GQD for 12 weeks. The reduction of HbA1c exhibited GQD dose-dependent manner and a short chain fatty acid production. Bacterium of Faecali and Bacillus were significantly enriched, which showed significant negative correlation with HbA1C and fasting blood glucose in the treated group. Third multicenter RCT with a noninferiority study: a total 800 T2DM patients with inadequate glycemic control, of which one-half of the patients were drug-naïve and the other half were already on metformin treatment. In drug naı¨ve group, the total hypoglycemia rate and the mild hypoglycemic episode in the Xiaoke Pill arm were 38% (p = 0.024) and 41% (p = 0.002) less compared to Glibenclamide arm; in Metformin group, the average annual rate of hypoglycemia was 62% lower in Xiaoke Pill arm (p = 0.003). In conclusion, Chinese medicine decoctions improve the body repair system to prevent as well as treat diabetes amongst the Chinese ethnic group. The application of these formulas will also provide benefits to Mexican Americans and to Emirati who have risk to develop diabetes and incur its complications.

Paper Title: Docking Studies of Mangiferin as Potential agent against Colorectal Cancer
Abstract: Mangiferin, a xanthone isolated from Curcuma amada has therapeutic properties. In the present study the anticancer property of mangiferin was evaluated by docking with colorectal cancer receptors using AutoDock Vina. Mangiferin showed good binding affinity with a score ranging from -10.3 to -6.7. In colorectal cancer (CRC) major pathways are deregulated which leads to cancer progression. APC, KRAS and CDK8 proteins involved in Wnt/β-catenin pathway are hyperactivated and these proteins were docked with mangiferin. Similar results were obtained when mangiferin was docked with proteins involved in the apoptotic pathway (Bcl-2 & Bcl-xL). Mangiferin showed higher affinity towards enzymes involved in Arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism. Mangiferin also had good binding affinity with MAD2 and BUBR1, which are proteins involved in chromosome instability pathway. These results show the potential of mangiferin to be development as an anticancer drug. Though the docking studies showed the anticancer property of mangiferin, further in vitro studies are required to evaluate the mechanism of action of mangiferin in the treatment for CRC.

Paper Title: A Multiplex PCR Assay to Detect Important Human Pathogens Like Shigella, Escherichia Coli And Shiga Toxin-Producing E. Coli In Milk
Abstract: For the simultaneous detection of three important pathogens, Shigella, Escherichia coli and Shiga-toxic Esch. coli a A multiplex PCR (mPCR) assay has been designed. For the detection of Esch. coli and Shigella uidA gene was targeted, however, ipaH and stx1 genes were used for the detection of Shigella and shiga-toxin producing strains. The primers were so designed that the detection of pathogens was very specific and precise in the mPCR protocol resulting in specific amplicons representing the specific genes in question e.g., amplicons from ipaH and uidA gene fragments pointed to the presence of Shigella spp., amplification from uidA alone pointed to the presence of Esch. coli and presence of verotoxin gene amplicon pointed to the vero-toxinogenic nature of the culture. The protocol is so sensitive that it could detect a single pathogenic cell in a 20 µl PCR assay in both individual and mPCR assay, very useful for on spot detection of pathogens in sensitive food samples like milk.

Paper Title: A Rare Case of Entrapment of Superficial Branch of Radial Nerve within the Split Tendon of Brachioradialis Muscle
(Wartenbergs Syndrome)
Abstract: The radial nerve terminates at the level of lateral epicondyle of humerus into its superficial and deep branches. The superficial branch runs deep to the brachioradialis (BR) muscle until the lower thirds of the forearm. Then it winds around the lower end of radius to move to the dorsal aspect of the hand where it supplies the skin. This being a cutaneous nerve, any entrapment or compression as seen in the present case would result in sensory disturbances along the dorsum of the hand. The present case was identified during a routine dissection session for undergraduate medical students. The BR muscle presented with a split tendon before insertion into the lateral surface of the styloid process of radius, in the left upper extremity of a male cadaver (age approximately 50 years). Before entering the dorsum of the hand, the superficial branch of radial nerve (SBRN) split into two divisions after passing between the two slips of the BR tendon. The rest of the course of the nerve was seen to be normal. This condition in a living person would result in compression of the SBRN during the actions of BR muscle causing pain over the region supplied by it. The symptoms aggravate during pronation and wrist movements involving BR, which typically are termed as Wartenberg’s syndrome. There are cases reported of the SBRN being trapped within the fascia of the forearm, but entrapment of SBRN within the split tendon of BR is considered to be a rare case. In patients suffering from a long term, this would result in paresthesia over the dorsum of the hand. Positive Tinel’s sign over the area of supply of SBRN is seen along with local tenderness and the same may also be seen during hyperpronation. During surgical procedures involving such variations, entrapment of SBRN between the split tendon of BR or within any tight fascial malformations should be considered. Releasing the nerve from such entrapments would improve the condition of the patient by relieving the symptoms.
