  • Importance of Vitamin D in Cancer Management
    REVIEW Importance of vitamin D in cancer management Muhammad Irfan1, Muhammad Sajid Hamid Akash1, Syed Aun Muhammad2, Maryam Rafique Ibrahim1 and Muhammad Imran Qadir2* 1Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Government College University, Faisalabad, Pakistan 2Institute of Molecular Biology & Biotechnology, Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan Abstract: Vitamin D is essential element for growth and development of bones. The receptor of the metabolite of vitamin D known as “nuclear calcitriol” have been identified in tissues and is responsible for playing a wide range of biological processes. Calcidiol [25(OH) D3] corresponds to the storage space and the chief flowing metabolite of vitamin D3. Calcitriol 1-α-25-dihydroxycholecalciferol is formed in the kidney. Deficiency of vitamin D and lack of sun exposure has been found to cause unceasing illnesses together with various lethal cancers. At cellular level the mechanism of anticancer action of vitamin D has not been entirely implicated. For th e setting off and regulation of particular genes, calcitriol-VDR-RXR complex attach to definite DNA fragments called as vitamin D response elements (VDREs). After binding with VDR, calcitriol performs its function by regulating the function of over and abo ve 60 genes providing direction for antiproliferative, prodifferentiating and antimetastatic effects on cells to result in antiangiogenic property. Vitamin D deficiency is evaluated as level of calcidiol less than 20ng/mL, shortage to the level of 21-29 ng/mL, and adequacy level is 30ng/mL. Keywords: Vitamin D, Calcidiol, Calcitriol, Angiogenesis, Apoptosis, Cancer, Cell Proliferation INTRODUCTION Physiology Vitamin D fit in to the foursome of fat soluble vitamins Vitamin D is renowned as being vital for healthiness of (A, D, E and K).

  • Nonadecene Isolated from Ranunculus Muricatus Exhibit Antioxidant Activity Farooq Azam1, Bashir Ahmad Chaudhry2, Hira Ijaz1 & Muhammad Imran Qadir 3*
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Cafeoyl-β-d-glucopyranoside and 1,3-dihydroxy-2- tetracosanoylamino-4-(E)- nonadecene isolated from Ranunculus muricatus exhibit antioxidant activity Farooq Azam1, Bashir Ahmad Chaudhry2, Hira Ijaz1 & Muhammad Imran Qadir 3* This study evaluates the antioxidant activity of Ranunculus muricatus and isolation and structure elucidation of the active constituents. The aerial parts of the plants were shade dried at room temperature and powdered and extracted with methanol. The free radical scavenging activity was evaluated by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) assay. The percentage scavenging activity was determined based on the percentage of DPPH radical scavenged. Column chromatography was used in order to isolate the active compounds. Spectral techniques UV, IR, 1H NMR, 13CNMR and HREI-MS were used for the structure elucidation of the isolated compounds. Two isolated compounds, A (cafeoyl- β-d-glucopyranoside) and B (1,3-dihydroxy-2-tetracosanoylamino-4-(E)-nonadecene), exibited a signifcant antioxidant activity as showed by DPPH radical scavenging method. Percentage inhibition for compound A (at 0.5 mM) was 82.67 ± 0.19 with IC50 of 93.25 ± 0.12 (μM), and for compound B (at 0.5 mM) was 69.23 ± 0.19 with IC50 of 183.34 ± 0.13 (μM). Quercetin was used as standard control. It was conclued from the present study that cafeoyl-β-d-glucopyranoside and 1,3-dihydroxy-2- tetracosanoylamino-4-(E)-nonadecene isolated from methanol extract of aerial parts of Ranunculus muricatus posses antioxidant activity. Buttercup (Ranunculus muricatus L., Family Ranunculaceae) had been used for heart diseases and cancer in folker medicine.

  • Justice Qayyum's Report
    PART I BACKGROUND TO INQUIRY 1. Cricket has always put itself forth as a gentleman’s game. However, this aspect of the game has come under strain time and again, sadly with increasing regularity. From BodyLine to Trevor Chappel bowling under-arm, from sledging to ball tampering, instances of gamesmanship have been on the rise. Instances of sportsmanship like Courtney Walsh refusing to run out a Pakistani batsman for backing up too soon in a crucial match of the 1987 World Cup; Imran Khan, as Captain calling back his counterpart Kris Srikanth to bat again after the latter was annoyed with the decision of the umpire; batsmen like Majid Khan walking if they knew they were out; are becoming rarer yet. Now, with the massive influx of money and sheer increase in number of matches played, cricket has become big business.
