    Abstract Here we are presenting an automated computational pipeline used to mine 5976 mitochondrial genomes to identify common, polymorphic, and unique microsatellites also known as simple sequence repeats (SSRs). Microsatellites are repetitive motifs of 1-6 bases in a DNA sequence. Due to their abundance and highly polymorphic nature, microsatellites have become one of the widely used molecular/genetic markers valuable for many studies including gene tagging, genetic diversity, and species identification. Several computational tools dedicated to mine and categorize microsatellites in nucleotide sequences were developed; however, there is no tool which can identify unique, common and polymorphic microsatellites between each pair of nucleotide sequences. To explore such microsatellites, we have developed a fully automated computational pipeline named AutomAted RepeaT Identifier (AARTI). The AARTI is the only tool till date, which identifies common, polymorphic, and unique microsatellites between each pair of nucleotide sequences. The computational pipeline was constructed using the PERL programming language and the web server for the pipeline was developed with the help of PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It was successfully tested to reproduce the results of previous study on 7 mitochondrial genomes of genus Orthotrichum. Moreover, the pipeline was also applied on 5846 (Metazoa) and 130 (Viridiplantae) mitochondrial genomes. The AARTI is freely available at https://lms.snu.edu.in/aarti/ and will certainly accelerate the studies of length variation in microsatellites between species. Additionally, it will be useful in comparative genomic studies, for the computational characterization of microsatellites, and has the potential to be a routine genome analysis pipeline for mitochondrial genomes.

    Abstract In continuum-armed bandit problems where the underlying function resides in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS), namely, the kernelised bandit problems, an important open problem remains of how well learning algorithms can adapt if the regularity of the associated kernel function is unknown. In this work, we study adaptivity to the regularity of translation-invariant kernels, which is characterized by the decay rate of the Fourier transformation of the kernel, in the bandit setting. We derive an adaptivity lower bound, proving that it is impossible to simultaneously achieve optimal cumulative regret in a pair of RKHSs with different regularities. To verify the tightness of this lower bound, we show that an existing bandit model selection algorithm applied with minimax non-adaptive kernelised bandit algorithms matches the lower bound in dependence of $T$, the total number of steps, except for log factors. By filling in the regret bounds for adaptivity between RKHSs, we connect the statistical difficulty for adaptivity in continuum-armed bandits in three fundamental types of function spaces: RKHS, Sobolev space, and H\"older space.

    Abstract In daily practice, clinicians come across certain radiographic abnormalities which may or may not be asymptomatic. This abstract discusses radiographic abnormalities encountered by clinicians in daily practice, some of which resemble endodontic lesions. Prompt attention is crucial as these lesions can be benign or malignant. The article emphasizes the importance of differential diagnosis for accurate identification of periapical pathosis.

    Abstract Background: Emulgel combines the qualities of an emulsion with those of a gel. In order to create an emulgel w/o or o/w, emulsions have to be formulated, which are then combined with a gelling agent, resulting in a dual-control drug release. Celecoxib exhibits analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory activities and is used to treat osteoarthritis, severe pain, rheumatoid arthritis, and other medical conditions.
    Methods: Celecoxib Emulgel was developed and evaluated by using natural oil and carbopol-940 as a gelling agent in different concentrations. The screening of various oils, co-surfactants and surfactants was performed to determine the solubility. The essential oils (eucalyptus oil and turpentine oil) were used as penetration modifiers. Studies on compatibility with polymers have been conducted, and the results indicate that there should be no physical or chemical interactions between the polymers and the drug substance. For the preparation of emulgel, various emulsions were prepared with Smix (cosurfactant and surfactant) ratios (1:1, 2:1 and 3:1). The selection of a gelling agent was done by incorporating the selected emulsion system ratio of 1:1 with the combinations of polymers carbapol 940, carbapol 934, and HPMC (0:1:0, 0:0.5:1, 0:0:3, 0.5:0:1, 1:0:0) gel base to make a homogenous emulgel.
    Results: The emulgel was examined visually to see if it had any phase behaviour, feel, spread-ability, and grittiness by applying its thin layer to a slide. Then, all six formulations of emulgel were prepared with the selected gelling agent. All emulgels were evaluated for pH, physical properties (consistency, homogeneity, colour, texture), drug content, spreadability, extrudability, swelling index, viscosity, stability and centrifugation. A Franz diffusion cell and an egg membrane were used to perform in-vitro drug release.
    Conclusion: Among all prepared formulations, EG1 had a better release, higher viscosity, higher drug content, and a higher swelling index than the others. The formulation EG1 showed higher drug release (91.25%) within 8 hours.

    Abstract Tuberculosis caused by the pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis leads to increased mortality and morbidity worldwide. The prevalence of highly drug resistant strains has reinforced the need for greater understanding of host-pathogen interactions at the cellular and molecular levels. Our previous work demonstrated critical roles of calcium ion channels in regulating protective responses to mycobacteria. In this report we deciphered the roles of inwardly rectifying K+ ion channel Kir2.1 in epithelial cells. Data showed that infection of epithelial cells (and macrophages) increases the surface expression of Kir2.1. This increased expression of Kir2.1 results in higher intracellular mycobacterial survival, since either inhibiting or knocking down Kir2.1 results in mounting of a higher oxidative burst leading to a significant attenuation of mycobacterial survival. Further, inhibiting Kir2.1 also led to increased expression of T cell costimulatory molecules accompanied with increased activation of MAP Kinases and transcription factors NF-κB and pCREB. Furthermore, inhibiting Kir2.1 induced increased autophagy and apoptosis that could also contribute to decreased bacterial survival. Interestingly, an increased association of heat shock protein-70 with Kir2.1 was observed. The above results showed that mycobacteria modulate the expression and function of Kir2.1 in epithelial cells to its advantage.

    Abstract Swelling-based disintegration is considered important for drug release from tablets and can be modified with excipients called tablet disintegrants. Swelling of tablets occurs axially and radially, and most researchers have observed both these events separately using 2D images. In the current work, we have studied these events simultaneously instead of separately under a stereozoom microscope for tablet compacts composed of high proportions of disintegrants (sodium starch glycolate, SSG and croscarmellose sodium, CCS), using water as the disintegrating medium. A hypothesis is proposed for the measurements of radial and axial swellings from a single 2D image, as horizontal lengths based on trigonometric functions for a right-angle triangle. All predicted axial and radial lengths (as per proposed hypothesis) are found validated with respect to vernier calliper measurements for dry-tablet compacts with a minute error of 3.809%. The axial swelling is approximately fivefolds more than that of radial swelling on the basis of normalised lengths. No particular trend can be spotted exclusively in favour of a superdisintegrant; however, the CCS-based tablets have shown higher swelling as compared to SSG-based tablets. From the current studies, it is evident that both axial and radial dimensions are obtainable from single 2D stereozoom images and can be successfully implemented for swelling studies of tablets.
