WELCOME TO THE FOURTH SPECIAL ISSUE (“BIOPHYSICS IN INDIA”) OF JOURNAL OF PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS After the exciting and memorable first 5 years, JPP walks into the 6th year of journey and is met with an eventful beginning right away. Unlike the last three years, JPP begins the current year with a special issue. Special issue it is – and what a special issue – to commemorate 50 golden years of Indian Biophysical Society. Biophysics, the application of physical principles to biology, plays an essential and integral role in the understanding of proteins and proteomics, deciphering their structure-function relationship, mechanistic roles, interplay with other biological molecules and translation into medical and biotechnological uses. The association of JPP and Indian Biophysical Society (IBS) is thus a natural extension of common goals and objectives. JPP is honored to present a special issue on “Biophysics in India” and wishes the society everlasting success and glory. JPP wishes to walk alongside IBS for years to come. Biophysical research in India, through luminaries like G.N. Ramachandran, has excelled in India and is respected worldwide. IBS has shepherded biophysical research in India since its inception. It has encouraged and motivated biophysicists nationwide. Through its annual meetings it has laid down an enviable platform for biophysicists across the country and abroad to update their knowledge, share their findings, discover talents, share experiences, connect and build networks. IBS has been instrumental in inspiring generation of biophysicists in India. It has rewarded valuable research through memorial lectures, travel grants, awards and honors. The 50 year journey has been remarkable and extraordinary and deserves special accolades. JPP congratulates IBS on this landmark achievement. Jamia Millia Islamia, with its rich heritage of education and research, and proven ability to disseminate knowledge efficiently though conferences and symposiums was chosen to host the annual meeting of IBS in its 50th year. Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Basic Sciences (CIRBSc), bestowed with the honor, happily accepted the challenge and shouldered the responsibility with great success. JPP congratulates the team from CIRBSc. JPP is elated to present the conference proceedings of the National Symposium in Biophysics and Golden Jubilee Meeting of Indian Biophysical Society through this special issue. The commemoration of 50 years begins with two G.N. Ramachandran Memorial Lectures (unlike the usual norm of one each year) to be delivered by two most pioneering biophysicists of our times – Dr. Girjesh Govil and Dr. M. Vijayan – whose contributions to biophysics in India is a common knowledge and needs no mention. To make the special year even more special, all past and present Presidents of IBS, who have served IBS selflessly and led the society from forefront, will be felicitated as well. This indeed will be a poignant moment worthy of memories to cherish forever. The meeting will witness high quality scientific presentations from distinguished invited speakers, many of whom are still in their mid-career or formative years. The highlight of the meeting is the number of young scientists who have been provided platform to showcase their research to eager and supportive audience. No less significant is the fact that an unprecedented number of students will also present their work orally. It is an honor for them and a boost to their confidence. This special issue brings together all the abstracts of the above talks as well as those which are slated to present their findings through posters. The array of abstracts is a testimony to the depth, diversity, advancement and success of biophysical research in India. It is truly awe-inspiring and a great victory for IBS. It presents to the world the current trends in Biophysical research in India. In addition, the issue also carries a short article that chronicles the IBS in the last 50 years. This is an asset for us as well. We hope that all delegates and participants will enjoy the issue as well as the deliberations of the meeting, the wonderful weather of the great city of Delhi and the remarkable ambience of Jamia Millia Islamia. We take the opportunity to appreciate the support from IBS and CIRBsc extended to JPP and allowing us the honor to present this very special “special issue”.

Findings from experimental models of DPN suggest that altered glutathione redox state, with exaggerated NA(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, increased malondialdehyde content, decreased red blood cell 2,3-diphosphoglycerate concentration, reduced cyclic adenosine monophosphate, reduced myo- inositol and excessive sorbitol in peripheral nerves were indicative of polyol metabolic pathwayin producing pathophysiological changes of DPN, and treatments using aldose reductase inhibitors were found to reverse those changes. Keywords: Polyol pathway; Myo-inositol; Sorbitol; Neurophysiology; Endocrinology. The aim of this short communication oxidized (GSSG) glutathione levels in crude article was to enlighten the role of polyol homogenates of rat sciatic nerve. The study pathway in pathophysiology of diabetic concluded that altered glutathione redox peripheral neuropathy (DPN) through an state played no detectable role in the evidence-informed overview of current pathogenesis of this defect in diabetic literature. peripheral nerve.

All authors read and approved the final manuscript. Received 29th September 2013 th Original Research Article Accepted 11 December 2013 Published 15th January 2014 ABSTRACT Aims: To investigate, for 13 aldose reductase inhibitors that had been in development for diabetic cataract, whether patent documents could provide earlier dissemination of knowledge to the ophthalmology community than peer review papers. Methodology: Searches for intellectual property disclosures were conducted in our internal database of ophthalmology patent documents, and were supplemented by online searches in the public Espacenet and Google Patents databases. Searches for peer review papers were performed in Pub Med and Google Scholar, and in our internal database of machine-readable ophthalmology publications. Results: For sorbinil, tolrestat, fidarestat and GP-1447 patent documents clearly preempted the peer review literature in terms of data-supported information on potential effectiveness in diabetic cataract, typically by 7-17 months. For alrestatin, zenarestat, zopolrestat, indomethacin, and quercitrin academic journals were clearly first to properly report this therapeutic utility, preempting the corresponding patents by 6 months to several years.

  • Aldose Reductase

    Aldose Reductase

    Aldose Reductase Aldose reductase is a small, cytosolic, monomeric enzyme which belongs to the aldo-keto reductase superfamily. Aldose reductase catalyzes the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-dependent reduction of a wide variety of aromatic and aliphatic carbonyl compounds. It is implicated in the development of diabetic and galactosemic complications involving the lens, retina, nerves, and kidney. Aldose reductase is both the key enzyme of the polyol pathway, whose activation under hyperglycemic conditions leads to the development of chronic diabetic complications, and the crucial promoter of inflammatory and cytotoxic conditions, even under a normoglycemic status. Aldose reductase represents an excellent drug target and a huge effort is being done to disclose novel compounds able to inhibit it. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 Aldose Reductase Inhibitors 6-Methoxytricin Aldose reductase-IN-1 Cat.

This is 16th in the series of Symposium, the first one was held in 2006, as a part of Birth day celebration of Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray, founder President of the Indian Chemical Society. The Indian Chemical Society, one of the oldest learned bodies of our national pride was established on May 09, 1924. Acharya P. C. Ray, after returning from Edinburgh first joined the Presidency College, Kolkata in 1889 and later in 1916, joined the Department of Chemistry, newly formed University College of Science, University of Calcutta as the Palit Professor of Chemistry. Acharya Ray was intimately associated with the Indian Chemical Society till the last breath. The school of modern chemical research established by Acharya Ray in the University College of Science, where he used to live in the later part of his life, subsequently spread over the entire country through his many illustrious disciples. Acharya Ray had always strongly advocated for effective interactions between industries and academia. He himself was the founder of Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray was born on August 02, 1861.
