Antibiotics Impact on Mitochondria Result in Potential Contributions to Carcinogenesis, Coronary pathology, other Medical Conditions and Ecosystem Risks | Chapter 4 | New Frontiers in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 5

Calghatgi's discovery that three popular antibiotics (Abs) enhanced mitochondrial reactive oxygen (ROS) and lipid peroxide (LP) while depleting their natural absorbant glutathione prompted me to look into the potential carcinogenic effects of these genotoxic chemicals. Antibiotics had a wide spectrum of effects on mitochondria and cellular DNA, all of which were consistent with previous contributions to carcinogenesis. HCC, RCC (KCC), CRC, and esophageal cancers were all likely to have grown as a result of these modifications. In this sense, LP-induced tumour suppressor gene alterations were remarkable, and mutations produced in CRC were consistent with those observed in carcinogenesi. This suppresses the immune system and raises the risk of cancer in general. Many cancers have been linked to heightened odds ratios in epidemiological research, with deadly breast cancer being one of the most concerning. The impact of mitochondrial dysfunction was also connected to a depression of the citric acid cycle and therefore ATP, which shifted metabolism to glycolysis, the Warburg mechanism, increasing the risk of all malignancies, which is favoured by cancer cells. To summarise, the number, type, and frequency of Abs treatments, as well as chronic residue exposure, all of which vary from person to person, are likely to raise the risk of several cancer types. This prompted me to Abs has a three-pronged carcinogenesis mechanism, according to the researchers. 1. Critical cancer mutations 2. Immune deficiency 3. Warburg effects are caused by a decrease of mitochondrial functioning. Common pesticides studied in China and more recently by covid spike protein [2] caused damage to mitochondria, and many pesticides were linked to cancer, implying a similar contributing aetiology. Because of the many mitochondria in the heart and the necessity for long-term reliability, these discoveries have raised worries about heart health. There were studies given that suggested Abs and pesticide exposure had an effect on the heart. Because of their ubiquity in terms of geography and the size of the population, Biodiversity and life in general are threatened by a variety of disorders linked to mitochondrial malfunction, antibiotics and insecticides, and bacteriacidal biocides. I offer research steps for evaluating antibiotic safety, as well as future research directions and suggestions for techniques to reduce Abs toxicity.

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

Study on Processing Method Influences the Effect of Cassava (Manihot esculenta) Consumption on Blood Lipid Profile in Rats | Chapter 8 | Current Research and Development in Chemistry Vol.1

Cassava is consumed in many tropical countries and is fast becoming the major raw material of many diets, especially in the bakery, brewery and pharmaceutical industries. In a study to determine the effects of various formulations of Cassava feeds on blood lipid profile in rats. Forty adult Wistar rats weighing between 120 and 150 g were divided into 4 groups of 10 rats each. The rats were acclimatized for one week; fed with different formulations of Cassava feeds adlibitum, after which the rats were allotted into groups. Group 1 was fed on Garri; group 2 on Cassava flour; group 3 on Tapioca, and the control group (group 4) on normal chow. After 4 weeks, each animal was anaesthetized by exposure to chloroform vapour and blood samples collected by cardiac puncture. Group 1 diet (Garri) significantly increased HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and significantly decreased LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration (p<0.05) compared with the control group. In Group 2 (Cassava flour), t...

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili...
