Abstract
In biomedical research, the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) is among the most effective and flexible model organisms. Through the use of the Drosophila model, molecular mechanisms of human diseases can be investigated and candidate pharmaceuticals can be screened. White rot fungus Inonotus obliquus is a member of the family Hymenochaetaceae. Due to its multifaceted pharmacological effects, this fungus has been the subject of scientific investigation. Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms by which Inonotus obliquus treats diseases remain unclear. In this study, we prepared an aqueous extract derived from Inonotus obliquus and demonstrated that it effectively prevented the negative impacts of inflammatory agents on flies, including overproliferation and overdifferentiation of intestinal progenitor cells and decreased survival rate. Furthermore, elevated reactive oxygen species levels and cell death were alleviated by Inonotus obliquus aqueous extract, suggesting that this extract inhibited intestinal inflammation. Additionally, Inonotus obliquus aqueous extract had an impact on the insulin pathway, as it alleviated growth defects in flies that were fed a high-sugar diet and in chico mutants. In addition, we determined the composition of Inonotus obliquus aqueous extract and conducted a network pharmacology analysis in order to identify prospective key compounds and targets. In brief, Inonotus obliquus aqueous extract exhibited considerable potential as a therapeutic intervention for human diseases. Our research has established a foundational framework that supports the potential clinical implementation of Inonotus obliquus.

Abstract
The irreversible thermal unfolding of jacalin, the lectin purified from jackfruit seeds was accompanied by aggregation, where intermolecular interactions among the subunits are favoured over intramolecular interactions. The extent of aggregation increased as a function of temperature, time and protein concentration. The anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) significantly suppressed the formation of aggregates as observed by turbidity measurements and Rayleigh scattering assay. Moreover, far UV-CD spectra indicate that the protein β sheet transforms into α helical structure, when denatured in the presence of 3 mM SDS. Further, jacalin when heated in the presence of SDS partially retained the hemagglutination activity when jacalin-SDS mixture was diluted to 1:8 factor since 3 mM SDS was found to lyse the red blood cells. Thus, SDS only altered the aggregation behaviour of jacalin by preventing intermolecular hydrogen bonding among the exposed residues but did not completely stabilize the native conformation.

Differential modulation of the chaperone-like activity of HSP-1/2, a major protein of horse seminal plasma by anionic and cationic surfactants. Int J Biol Macromol 2016; 96:524-531.

Abstract
The major protein of equine seminal plasma, HSP-1/2 exhibits chaperone-like activity (CLA) by protecting various target proteins against thermal, chemical and oxidative stress. Polydispersity and surface hydrophobicity of HSP-1/2 were found to be important for its CLA. Surfactants are known to alter certain properties of proteins, e.g. hydrophobicity, charge and conformation either by altering properties of the medium or by direct binding. In the current study, thermal aggregation of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and enolase has been studied in the presence of HSP-1/2, different surfactants and their combinations. The results obtained show that anionic surfactants (SDS, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfate) and neutral surfactants (tween-20, triton X-100) increase the CLA of HSP-1/2 and also inhibit aggregation of the target proteins independently. On the other hand, cationic surfactants (CTAB, alanine palmityl ester) increased the thermal aggregation of ADH and enolase and also decreased the CLA of HSP-1/2. These results are of significant interest as they show that surfactants such as SDS and tween-20 can potentially be used as anti-aggregation agents to prevent thermal aggregation of target proteins.

Sodium dodecyl sulphate modulates the fibrillation of human serum albumin in a dose-dependent manner and impacts the PC12 cells retraction. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2014; 122:341-349.

Abstract
Protein aggregation is impacted by many factors including temperature, pH, and the presence of surfactants, electrolytes, and metal ions. The addition of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) at different concentrations may play a significant role in the human serum albumin (HSA) fibrillation pathway. Here the heat induction of HSA fibrillation incubated with different concentrations of SDS was evaluated using a variety of techniques. These included ThT fluorescence, Congo red absorbance, circular dichroism, dynamic light scattering, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). To explore HSA surface properties, the surface tension of solutions was measured using Du Noüy Ring method tensiometry. In addition, the criteria of neurite outgrowth and complexity were monitored by exposing PC12 cells to different forms of HSA amyloid intermediates. ThT fluorescence kinetic studies indicated that SDS at low concentrations induced more fibrillation of HSA, while SDS at high concentrations inhibited the fibrillation of HSA. At higher SDS concentrations hydrophobic forces had a significant role whereas at lower SDS concentrations electrostatic forces were dominant. The cell culture studies demonstrated the significant impact of SDS concentration on HSA fibrillation and subsequent neuronal cell morphology. The HSA incubated with low concentrations of SDS inhibited neurite outgrowth and complexity of the PC12 cells, whereas high concentrations of SDS had lesser effect. Thus, SDS acts as a salt at lower concentrations, while at higher concentrations acts as a chaperon, with significant impact on fibrillation of HSA.

Abstract
Silica nanoparticle supported imidazolium ionic liquid [SNImIL] was synthesized and utilized as a biocompatible additive for studying the thermal reversibility of human carbonic anhydrase II (HCA II). For this purpose, we prepared additive by modification of nanoparticles through the grafting of ionic liquids on the surface of nanoparticles (SNImIL). The SNImIL were fully characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and thermo gravimetric analysis. The characterization of HCA II was investigated by various techniques including UV-vis and ANS fluorescence spectrophotometry, differential scanning calorimetry, and docking study. SNImIL induced disaggregation, enhanced protein stability and increased thermal reversibility of HCA II by up to 42% at pH 7.75.
