Juss.) fungal endophyte, which based upon morphological and cultural characteristics was eventually identified as Fusarium oxysporum. The aqueous precursor (HAuCl4) solution when reacted with endophytic fungus resulted in the biosynthesis of abundant amounts of well dispersed gold nanoparticles of 10-40 nm with an average size of 22nm. These biosynthesized gold nanoparticles were then characterized by standard analytical techniques such as UV-Visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Transmission Electron Microscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Cytotoxic activity of these nanoparticles was checked against three different cell types including breast cancer (ZR-75-1), Daudi (Human Burkitt's lymphoma cancer) and normal human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), where it was found that our gold nanoparticles are anti-proliferative against cancer cells but completely safe toward normal cells. In addition to this, assessment of toxicity toward human RBC revealed less than 0.1 % hemolysis as compared to Triton X-100 suggesting safe nature of our biosynthesized gold nanoparticles on human cells. Also, our nanoparticles exhibited no anti-fungal (against Aspergillus niger) or anti-bacterial [against Gram positive (Bacillus subtilis &amp;amp; Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram negative (Escherichia coli &amp;amp; Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria] activity thus suggesting their non-toxic, biocompatible nature. The present investigation opens up avenues for eco-friendly, biocompatible nanomaterials to be used in a wide variety of application such as drug delivery, therapeutics, theranostics and so on.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">18</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.9</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bar Routaray, Chinmayee</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhor, Renuka</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bai, Shakuntala</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kadam, Nitin Suryakant</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jagtap, Surabhi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doshi, Pooja Jignesh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sundar, Shyam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sawant, Sangeeta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, Mahesh J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pai, Kalpana</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SWATH-MS based quantitative proteomics analysis to evaluate the antileishmanial effect of Commiphora wightii- Guggul and Amphotericin B on a clinical isolate of Leishmania donovani</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Proteomics</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">223</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">103800</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The present study provides comprehensive proteomics analyses of the response of L. donovani parasite to pharamacological stress in vitro. Identification of differentially expressed proteins with associated molecular functions and metabolic pathways, clearly provides an insight into the potential mechanism of the antileishmanial effects as well as a comparative response of the parasite to Guggul and AmB. Treatment of parasite with AmB results in an enhanced modulatory mechanism to counteract the drug induced stress which may have contributed to relapse. In the case of Guggul treatment, an effective antipromastigote activity was observed, which is being reported for the first time. Thus, a deeper understanding of the molecular pathways in the Leishmania parasite in response to pharmacological stress would help in designing novel and effective strategies in targeting the key molecules essential for parasite survival. It will also help in screening of new lead molecules targeting these vital pathways which could be used as an adjunct therapy along with the limited repertoire of antileishmanial drugs.&lt;/p&gt;

This report puts efforts to exploring microbial-based eco-friendly alternatives. A facile, onepot biological method for the synthesis of alpha-Ag2S composite nanoparticles (NPs) in an aqueous medium at ambient conditions was established. As prepared alpha-Ag2S composite NPs were efficiently produced from precursors silver nitrate and sodium sulfite. The extracellular biomolecules produced by Humicola sp. reduced the precursor solution and at the same time it capped the formed Ag2S NPs. The characterization performed by different techniques revealed excellent optical, morphological, and structural properties (size, shape distribution, and crystallinity) of the alpha-Ag2S NPs. The change in color from colorless to dark brown indicated the formation of alpha-Ag2S, which was further confirmed by fluorescence and UV-Visible spectroscopy, showing a sharp peak at 410 nm. Morphological analysis of alpha-Ag2S NPs confirmed the spherical shape, and narrow size distribution. alpha-Ag2S NPs were found to be potent in antimicrobial applications owing to their high dispersibility in water and capping by extracellular biomolecules secreted by Humicola sp. The anti-cancer activity for alpha-Ag2S performed using human breast cancer cell line (ZR-75-1) and human Burkitt's lymphoma cancer (Daudi). The biocompatibility test was performed using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) for alpha-Ag2S NPs. The anti-leishmania activity was also determined for alpha Ag2S NPs in-vitro using the standard anti-promastigote protocol (Leishmania donovani promastigotes). This extracellular system is an economically and environmentally benign route for the biosynthesis of alpha-Ag2S NPs having desired surface, structure and biomedical properties.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.981</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Routaray, Chinmayee Bar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhor, Renuka</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bai, Shakuntala</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kadam, Nitin Suryakant</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jagtap, Surabhi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doshi, Pooja Jignesh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sundar, Shyam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sawant, Sangeeta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kulkarni, Mahesh J.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pai, Kalpana</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SWATH-MS based quantitative proteomics analysis to evaluate the antileishmanial effect of Commiphora wightii- Guggul and amphotericin B on a clinical isolate of Leishmania donovani (vol 223, 103800, 2020)</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Proteomics</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2021</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">232</style></volume><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Drug resistance and relapse after treatment of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) with the chemotherapeutic drugs has impeded the VL elimination programme especially, in the endemic region of Bihar, India. Currently, Antimonials (Sbv) have been rendered obsolete (Bihar) as frequent treatment failure and relapse in Sbv treated patient's warrants greater vigilance and attention to the limited drugs. A clinical isolate of L.donovani obtained from an Amphotericin B (AmB) relapse patient was evaluated for its susceptibility to AmB and a hyperlipidemic drug Guggul. The evaluation of susceptibility or resistance to any drug still relies on in vitro assay on promastigote and amastigote stages of Leishmania spp. as there are no validated markers which can ascertain drug resistance in Leishmania. The anti-promastigote effect of AmB and Guggul were demonstrated by significant cellular and morphological changes exhibiting apoptosis-mediated cell death. To further illustrate the molecular mechanism of the parasite's response upon exposure to either AmB and Guggul, sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS) for quantitative proteomics analysis was performed along with computational data analysis; revealing considerable differences in the proteome profiles which could be regarded as putative markers for resistance or drug targets for development of therapeutic antileishmanials.&lt;/p&gt;

We have focused our research on gold sulfide nanoparticles (Au2S NPs) and have biosynthesized these NPs using the fungus Humicola sp. The nanoparticles were characterized by Transmission Electron Microscopy, which showed spherical morphology of Au2S. UV-Visible-NIR spectrophotometry, luminescence spectrophotometry, Selected Area Electron Diffraction, Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-rays, and X-ray diffraction were performed. FTIR confirmed that the fungal metabolites including biomolecules secreted in the reaction medium are primarily responsible for nanoparticle synthesis and stabilization. The fungus reduced the precursor solution (HAuCl4 and Na2SO3) and at the same time capped them with secreted biomolecules. The anti-leishmanial activity of Au2S NPs was determined against L. donovani promastigote (Ag83 strain). Au2S NPs displayed less cytotoxicity towards both normal and cancer (Daudi, ZR-75-1) cell lines. Hemocompatibility was determined via hemolysis assays. This novel fungal-based system demonstrates an economical and environmentally benign process for biosynthesis of Au2S nanoparticles which may find application in bioimaging and labeling studies.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.990</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
