All the PhD dissertations are archived in the Kerala University Library (with over 4000 dissertation so far) and also being uploaded into the Shodhganga on-line repository maintained by UGC. However it is practically impossible to get an overview of the research reported in these theses, spread over nearly 50 subjects in voluminous reports running to over 50,000 pages in total. Any assessment of the research work therefore remains to be enabled by a convenient compilation. The Internal Quality Assurance Cell of the University of Kerala has therefore chosen to compile summaries of all PhD theses in a standart format. The following is a snapshot of statistics: Total No. of PhDs awarded in 2015 343 PhDs awarded stream-wise Science & Technology: 171 Social Science: 94 Arts and Humanities: 78 No. of abstracts compiled in this Volume 198 Average No. of Pages in thesis Science and Technology: 220 Social Science: 283 Arts and Humanities: 293 Overall: 249 Average No. of references cited Science and Technology: 282 Social Science: 243 Arts and Humanities: 123 Overall: 241 About 60% of the scholars who were awarded PhD in 2015 have obliged with our request.

Vice-Chancellor 4 Stream: Science & Technology Subject: Biochemistry 5 Title: “Identification of specific microRNAs involved in differentiation of retinal ganglion cells” Researcher: Abdul Rasheed .V .T Guide: Dr. Jackson James Subject: Biochemistry Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are one of the specialized neurons among the seven cell types in the retina that transmit the visual signals to the brain. In view of the recent advances, particularly regarding the post-transcription regulation by miRNAs in retina, we have looked into the miRNAs that could potentially target Brn3b and thereby regulate RGC differentiation during development. Here, we initially used an in silico approach to identify miRNAs that are specific to RGCs and demonstrated the role of miR- 23a and miR-374 in regulating the developmental wave of expression of the RGC marker Brn3b (Pou4f2) during development of RGCs. Secondly, we demonstrated that the wave of Brn3b expression is regulated by a coordinated expression of miR-23a and miR-374 during the developmental of retina and their over-expression in retinal explants reduced the expression of Brn3b in the Ganglion cell layer (GCL) of the retina. Next, we demonstrated the role of miR-23a and miR-374 acting on various factors in the intraretinal axon guidance pathway, specifically the Robo-Slit mediated guidance which directs the RGC axons to their proper destinations. The expression of Robo2 seems to be regulated during the late phase of RGC by miR-23a/miR374 while Robo1 may be regulated by miR-23a alone and this may be a mechanism to regulate the axon guidance factors within the retina. Thus, we provide convincing evidences for the existences of a co-ordinated mechanism in regulating the timing of Brn3b expression by miR-23a and miR-374, which will ultimately regulate the development of RGCs from their progenitors and later their survival and axonal guidance. Overall, ours and previous studies would be useful in finding the physiological importance of miRNAs in retinal degenerative diseases and designing treatments targeting them.

Indira Subject: Biochemistry Diet and nutrition are widely believed to play an important role in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Myocardial infarction (MI) is the most important cause of mortality among the CVD’s. The roles of different dietary intake in CVD are gaining importance as it will help in early intervention in the progression of the diseases. White rice and cassava are carbohydrate rich foods. Thus, the present study is based on the hypothesis that high carbohydrate (HC) diet (75% carbohydrate) when compared to standard diet (60% carbohydrate) influence the incidence of CVD. The study conducted on experimental animals showed an increased lipogenesis, decreased mitochondrial energy metabolism, increased oxidative stress markers, accelerated 5-LO pathway and upregulation of RAGE-NF-κB pathway in the HC diet groups, both in control and ISO groups when compared to standard groups. The effect was higher for white rice when compared to cassava in both control and ISO groups. The endothelial dysfunction was also found higher in white rice fed group. The effect of HC diet in Nrf2 dependent upregulation of hypertrophic markers and left ventricular remodeling showed increased hypertrophic responses and collagen expression in the LV in HC diet fed rat heart. The hypertrophy and remodeling was higher in the white rice fed group. Thus, HC diet consumption especially white rice when compared to cassava creates a more vulnerable environment in the heart which may increase the complications of cardiac damages.

After characterization, preliminary toxicity studies were done and found to be non toxic and further moved to detailed study. Natural products have long been recognized as important sources for therapeutically effective medicines. Robinin (Kaempferol 3-O- robinoside-7-O-rhamnoside) is one of the derivatives of Kaempferol; it is present in flavonoid fraction of Vigna unguiculata leaf which is edible and unexplored for any activity. The in vitro anti-inflammatory potential of Robinin - a flavonoid - showed that it ameliorates the inflammatory insult by inhibiting transcriptional activation. The in vivo study on atherosclerotic rats showed that Robinin possess antioxidant, hypolipidemic and anti-atherogenic property in ameliorating cholesterol induced atherosclerosis. Encapsulation of Robinin to polymeric nanocapsules has been characterised by FTIR and UV spectrum. In vitro drug release study showed efficient release of the drug from polymeric nanocapsule delivery system after 72 hours of study. Cellular uptake studies using Robinin encapsulated nanocapsules showed an efficient uptake. Oil red staining of macrophages were done to assess the amount of lipid content in foam cells. Overall, in vitro study revealed significant inhibition of macrophages transformed foam cell by Robinin encapsulated polymeric nanocapsule drug delivery system and further moved to in vivo studies. The polymeric nanocapsule loaded Robinin showed efficient anti-atherogenic and anti-inflammatory potential in reducing cholesterol induced foam cell triggered atherosclerosis in rats.

  • Padma Bhushan Prof. Jacob Chandy the Founder President of Neurological Society of India
    Padma Bhushan Prof. Jacob Chandy The Founder President of Neurological Society of India M. SAMBASIVAN "Some are born great, some attain greatness by their effort and for some greatness is thrust upon them". Prof. Jacob Chandy (J.C) belongs to the second category. I deem it a privilege to pen the biography of my teacher, philosopher, guide and friend. Forgetting Prof. Jacob Chandy, would mean forgetting the development of Neurosciences in India and particularly the very beginnings of N.S.I. Tall, dark, rough looking and rough voiced giving a different impression at first sight, Prof. Jacob Chandy is a per fect person with a loving heart. As an artistic surgeon he was a Leonardo Da vinci, as an administrator he was a Bismarck, an avid planner and organiser as Winston Churchill, an erudite teacher as Nagarjuna, as devout as John the Baptist and a visionary as Asoka. Rare combinations indeed!. Now let me look into the details of the history in the life of Prof. Jacob Chandy. J. C. was born in an orthodox Christian family, father a presbyter of Anglican church and mother a house wife. In 1910, they were living' in the rural areas near Kottayam. These places in those days medical care was well neigh impossible. At 7th year of J. C's age his mother suddenly took ill and died, obviously without getting any medical help. This event made a sharp dent in the mind of young J. C. which gave him the im- petus to take to medicine, with the sole purpose of improving health care system in the villages.

He was sent for training in Neurosurgery by the Government of Madras to Newcastle (UK) in 1949 at a time when Neurosurgery was not known in India. He was trained under Prof. G. F. Rowbotham at Newcastle. He also spent time with doyens of Neurosurgery like Prof. Geoffrey Jefferson (Manchester), Prof. Krayenbuhl (Zurich), Dr. Edward Busch (Copenhagen), Prof. Olivecrona (Stockholm) and Prof. Wilder Penfield (Montreal). He returned to Madras in 1950, bringing back with him the traditions of the British, American, Canadian and European schools of Neurosurgery and started Neurosurgery in Madras General Hospital and Madras Medical Prof. B. Ramamurthi College on October 24th (Vijayadasami day). This was the second Neurosurgery department to be started in India(Prof. Jacob Chandy had started his department at Christian Medical College, Vellore a year earlier). Against great odds and difficulties, Dr B. Ramamurthi built and developed the neurosurgical department, which later developed into the Institute of Neurology at the Government General Hospital, where he was the Professor and Head till his retirement in 1978.
