The COVID-19 caused by a new type of coronavirus has emerged from China and led to thousands of deaths globally. Despite many groups engaged in studying the newly emerged virus and searching for the treatment, the understanding of the SARS-CoV2 target ligand interactions represents a key challenge.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect of essential oil on human neutrophil (HN) functions. The neutrophils were isolated on percoll gradients, counted, and tested for viability using the trypan blue exclusion method. The chemotactic response was based on a multiple blind well assay system.

The recent outbreak of SARS CoV-2 has changed the global scenario of human lives/economy. A significant number of the non-survivors showed cardiac-renal-vasculature dysfunction. A 'cytokine storm' namely, interleukin IL6-IL1 receptors i.e. IL6R-IL1R over-functioning was reported. Here, nigellidine,

Bacterial spoilage of food products is regulated by density dependent communication system called quorum sensing (QS). QS control biofilm formation in numerous food pathogens and Biofilms formed on food surfaces act as carriers of bacterial contamination leading to spoilage of food and health

The incidence of food hypersensitivity and food allergies is on the rise and new treatment approaches are needed. We investigated whether N. sativa, one of its components, thymoquinone, or synthetic opioid receptor (OR)-agonists can alleviate food allergy. Hence, ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized
