    Abstract Background: Pranayama, or yogic breathing technique, is now well-known worldwide by ordinary people, doctors, and scientific communities for its immediate and long-term physiological effect. However, no comprehensive physiological mechanisms explained pranayama. The present study proposed these physiological mechanisms to interpret the underlying science behind pranayama.
    Method: The author searches PubMed/Medline internet sources for authentic scientific data and articles to acquire evidence following specific keywords. The author reviewed a total of seventy-three papers, following PRISMA guidelines. 17 full articles, including seven systematic reviews, five clinical trials, two observational studies, and three randomized control trials, have been selected to discuss proposed physiological mechanisms.
    Discussion: This study proposes physiological mechanisms of pranayama. It is commenced from Step 1. Activation of mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the respiratory system; then Step 2. Activation of mechanoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the circulatory system, followed by Step 3. Activation of brain respiro-circulatory control centre; Step 4. Activation of the cerebellum; Step 5. Activation of the limbic system and finally end with; Step 6. Activation of the cerebral cortex. The physiological adjustment and adaptation mechanisms due to pranayama of all these six proposed areas have been discussed. Authentic scientific evidence has also been presented to support these proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama. The author stated the study's limitations and suggested future specific scientific experiments in this area of proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama.
    Conclusion: These prospective proposed physiological mechanisms of pranayama in the future may provide the best scientific background for therapeutic rehabilitation and for the healthy population to maintain their general wellness.

    Abstract Yoga in the theoretical and practical form is now accepted all over the world, by the researchers as well as by the general population. Yogāsana or Yogic postures are one of the main foundations of practical yoga. Mechanisms of Mediation and Prānāyāma has already been established. In this article, the author is for the first time proposing physiological classification of Yogāsana i.e. (a) Stretch (b) Contraction (c). Neuromuscular Coordination (d) Sense Reduction (e) Spine Brain Activation. In support of this physiological classification author has proposed five hypothetical theories i.e. (i) Stretch Relaxation Awareness (ii) Contraction Relaxation Awareness (iii) Ballastic Contraction Relaxation Awareness (iv) Sensory Motor Function Awareness and (v) Vital Energy Flow Awareness to understand the underlying mechanisms of Yogāsana practice and to explain its benefits.

    Abstract Habitual physical activity improves heart functions and parasympathetic tone; Karate training is considered as a moderate physical activity with rhythmical breathing patternology. Heart rate variability (HRV) is an electrophysiological tool which measures cardio autonomic homeostasis; is used in the present study as an indirect marker to measure neurocognitive development with karate training. The aim of the present study was to find out the impact of regular karate training on cardiac autonomic responses through Heart Rate Variability (HRV) between karate players and age-sex matched active controls. A total of 30 male school-going children were evaluated; fifteen were experienced male karate practitioners (9.5±1.26 years) and fifteen controls (10.6±1.57 years). The time and frequency domain measures of HRV were taken into account after check for normality distribution, followed by t-test for comparison of Mean±SD. Frequency domain measures; low frequency normalized unit (LF nu) and low frequency is to high frequency ratio (LF/HF ratio) both showed significant reduction in the karate group which quantified sympathetic disposition while High frequency normalized units (HF nu) reflected a significant rise and it predicted increase in parasympathetic tone. Karate practitioners show higher HRV measures and more involvement of the parasympathetic nervous system which help in stress resilience and improved recovery time. This training if performed regularly from an early age can improve cardiac health which is very pertinent in the present times.

    Abstract Background: The literature survey shows improvement in cognitive performance following acute bouts of physical exercise and chronic exercise patterns. However, neurocognitive growth through karate, a moderate intensity physical activity, is very limited. The synchronization of the nervous and endocrine system can be best reflected through this martial art form through neurogenesis and cognitive potentiation. Numerous outstanding reviews have summarized these findings for martial arts like judo and taekwondo. This review tries to orchestrate the efficiency of karate in neurocognition.
    Objective of the study: The specific aim of this review paper is to magnify the efficiency of karate training in cognitive functions, through its response to neurochemical transmissions and electrophysiological signaling.
    Materials and method: Numerous related literature were evaluated, screened, and selected using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses eligibility criteria. All appropriate publications that satisfied the primary objective of the study were scientifically and schematically presented in this review paper.
    Results: The psychophysiological effect of karate training and their relation with brain functions have been elaborated. This review compiles the few studies established on the cognitive benefits of karate through the electrical stimuli and neurochemical release.
    Conclusion: Karate may be effective in advancement of particular brain functions and neurocognitive actions through a life time. Electrophysiological studies have unraveled improved neural efficiency, stress tolerance, working and muscle memory but need further exploration. Similarly, to better understand the effects of karate on neurochemical secretions, further research involvement is required.

    Abstract Background: The conventional means of controlling the recurring pandemics of Type A Influenza Virus (IAV) infections remain challenging primarily because of its high mutability and increasing drug resistance. As an alternative to control IAV infections, the prophylactic use of cytokines to drive immune activation of multiple antiviral host factors has been progressively recognized. Among them, Type III Interferons (IFNs) exhibit a pivotal role in inducing potent antiviral host responses by upregulating the expression of several antiviral genes, including the Interferon-Stimulated Genes (ISGs) that specifically target the virus replication machinery. To harness the immuno-adjunctive potential, we examined whether pre-treatment of IFNλ3, a Type III IFN, can activate antiviral host responses against IAV infections.
    Methods: In the present study, we bioengineered a food-grade lactic acid-producing bacteria (LAB), Lactococcus lactis (L. lactis), to express and secrete functional murine IFNλ3 (MuIFNλ3) protein in the extracellular milieu. To test the immune-protective potential of MuIFNλ3 secreted by recombinant L. lactis (rL. lactis), we used murine B16F10 cells as an in vitro model while mice (BALB/c) were used for in vivo studies.
    Results: Our study demonstrated that priming with MuIFNλ3 secreted by rL. lactis could upregulate the expression of several antiviral genes, including Interferon Regulatory Factors (IRFs) and ISGs, without exacerbated pulmonary or intestinal inflammatory responses. Moreover, we also showed that pre-treatment of B16F10 cells with MuIFNλ3 can confer marked immune protection against mice-adapted influenza virus, A/PR/8/1934 (H1N1) infection.
    Conclusion: Since the primary target for IAV infections is the upper respiratory and gastrointestinal tract, immune activation without affecting the tissue homeostasis suggests the immune-adjunctive potential of IFNλ3 against IAV infections.
