Abstract
T-cell malignancy is a broad term used for a diverse group of disease subtypes representing dysfunctional malignant T cells transformed at various stages of their clonal evolution. Despite having similar clinical manifestations, these disease groups have different disease progressions and diagnostic parameters. The effective diagnosis and prognosis of such a diverse disease group demands testing of molecular entities that capture footprints of the disease physiology in its entirety. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of noncoding RNA molecules that regulate the expression of genes and, while doing so, leave behind specific miRNA signatures corresponding to cellular expression status in an altered stage of a disease. Using miRNAs as a diagnostic tool is justified, as they can effectively distinguish expressional diversity between various tumors and within subtypes of T-cell malignancies. As global attention for cancer diagnosis shifts toward liquid biopsy, diagnosis using miRNAs is more relevant in blood cancers than in solid tumors. We also lay forward the diagnostic significance of miRNAs that are indicative of subtype, progression, severity, therapy response, and relapse. This review discusses the potential use and the role of miRNAs, miRNA signatures, or classifiers in the diagnosis of major groups of T-cell malignancies like T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-ALL), peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTCL), and cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). The review also briefly discusses major diagnostic miRNAs having prominent metabolic roles in these malignancies to highlight their importance among other dysregulated miRNAs.

Abstract
The immune function of normal T cells partially depends on the maneuvering of lipid metabolism through various stages and subsets. Interestingly, T-cell malignancies also reprogram their lipid metabolism to fulfill bioenergetic demand for rapid division. The rewiring of lipid metabolism in T-cell malignancies not only provides survival benefits but also contributes to their stemness, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Owing to distinctive lipid metabolic programming in T-cell cancer, quantitative, qualitative, and spatial enrichment of specific lipid molecules occur. The formation of lipid rafts rich in cholesterol confers physical strength and sustains survival signals. The accumulation of lipids through de novo synthesis and uptake of free lipids contribute to the bioenergetic reserve required for robust demand during migration and metastasis. Lipid storage in cells leads to the formation of specialized structures known as lipid droplets. The inimitable changes in fatty acid synthesis (FAS) and fatty acid oxidation (FAO) are in dynamic balance in T-cell malignancies. FAO fuels the molecular pumps causing chemoresistance, while FAS offers structural and signaling lipids for rapid division. Lipid metabolism in T-cell cancer provides molecules having immunosuppressive abilities. Moreover, the distinctive composition of membrane lipids has implications for immune evasion by malignant cells of T-cell origin. Lipid droplets and lipid rafts are contributors to maintaining hallmarks of cancer in malignancies of T cells. In preclinical settings, molecular targeting of lipid metabolism in T-cell cancer potentiates the antitumor immunity and chemotherapeutic response. Thus, the direct and adjunct benefit of lipid metabolic targeting is expected to improve the clinical management of T-cell malignancies.

Abstract
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a pathogenic bacterium that causes life-threatening outbreaks such as community-onset and nosocomial infections as emerging 'superbug'. Time and motion study of its virulent property developed resistance against most of the antibiotics such as Vancomycin. Thereby, to curb this problem entails the development of new therapeutic agents. Plant-derived antimicrobial agents have recently piqued people's interest, so in this research, 186 flavonoids compound selected to unmask the best candidates that can act as potent inhibitors against the Penicillin Binding Protein-2a (PBP-2a) of MRSA. Molecular docking performed using PyRx and GOLD suite to determine the binding affinities and interactions between the phytochemicals and the PBP-2a. The selected candidates strongly interact with the different amino acid residues. The 30 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with five top-ranked compounds such as Naringin, Hesperidin, Neohesperidin, Didymin and Icariin validated the docking interactions. These findings are also strongly supported by root-mean-square deviation, root-mean-square fluctuation and the radius of gyration. ADME/T analysis demonstrates that these candidates appear to be safer inhibitors. Our findings point to natural flavonoids as a promising and readily available source of adjuvant antimicrobial therapy against resistant strains in the future.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) has been recently identified to play a crucial role in the progression of many cancers. PDE5 promotes tumorigenesis by dysregulating various cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and invasion and migration. Interestingly, multiple studies have reported the promising chemosensitizing potential of PDE5 inhibitor sildenafil in breast, colon, prostate, glioma, and lung cancers. However, to date, the chemosensitizing action of sildenafil is not evaluated in T cell lymphoma, a rare and challenging neoplastic disorder. Hence, the present investigation was undertaken to examine the chemosensitizing potential of sildenafil against T cell lymphoma along with elucidation of possible involvement of altered apoptosis and glucose metabolism. The experimental findings of this study showed that sildenafil enhances the cytotoxic ability of cisplatin by apoptosis induction through altering the levels of apoptosis regulatory molecules: Bcl-2, Bax, cytochrome c (Cyt c), cleaved caspase-3, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). These molecular alterations were possibly driven by sildenafil through reactive oxygen species (ROS). Sildenafil deregulates glucose metabolism by markedly lowering the expression of glycolysis regulatory molecules, namely glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA), hexokinase II (HKII), pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 (PDK1) via suppressing hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF-1α) expression. Hence, sildenafil potentiates the tumor cell killing ability of cisplatin by augmenting ROS production through switching the glucose metabolism from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Overall, our study demonstrates that sildenafil might be a promising adjunct therapeutic candidate in designing novel combinatorial chemotherapeutic regimens against T cell lymphoma.

Abstract
Two proinflammatory cytokines, IL17A and IL18, are observed to be elevated in the serum of gout patients and they play a crucial role in the development and worsening of inflammation, which has severe effects. In present study, we have combined molecular docking, molecular dynamics studies and MM-PBSA analysis to study the effectiveness of ethoxy phthalimide pyrazole derivatives (series 3a to 3e) as potential inhibitors against cytokines IL17A and IL18 as a druggable targets. The binding energy of the docked series ranges from -13.5 to -10.0 kcal/mol and extensively interacts with the amino acids in the active pocket of IL17A and IL18. Compound 3e had the lowest binding energy with IL17A at -12.6 kcal/mol compared to control allopurinol (3.32 kcal/mol). With IL18, compound 3a seems to have the lowest binding energy of -9.6 kcal/mol compared to control allopurinol (3.18 kcal/mol). In MD simulation studies, compound 3a forms a stable and energetically stabilized complex with the target protein. Depending on properties of the bound IL17A-3a and IL18-3a complexes was compared by means of MM-PBSA analysis. These derivatives can be used as a scaffold to develop promising IL17A and IL18 inhibitors to assess their potential for gouty arthritis and other related diseases.

Abstract
This research aims to find out whether the 1, 2, 4-triazine and its derivatives have antifungal effects and can protect humans from infection with Candida albicans. Molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulation are widely used in modern drug design to target a particular protein with a ligand. We are interested in using molecular docking and molecular dynamics modeling to investigate the interaction between the derivatives of 1, 2, 4-triazine with enzyme Lanosterol 14-demethylase (CYP51) of Candida albicans. The inhibition of Candida albicans CYP51 is the main goal of our research. The 1, 2, 4-triazine and its derivatives have been docked to the CYP51 enzyme, which is involved in Candida albicans Multidrug Drug Resistance (MDR). Autodock tools were used to identify the binding affinities of molecules against the target proteins. Compared to conventional fluconazole, the molecular docking results indicated that each drug has a high binding affinity for CYP51 proteins and forms unbound interactions and hydrogen bonds with their active residues and surrounding allosteric residues. The docking contacts were made using a 10 ns MD simulation with nine molecules. RMSD, RMSF, hydrogen bonds, and the Rg all confirm these conclusions. In addition, these compounds were expected to have a favorable pharmacological profile and low toxicity. The compounds are being offered as scaffolds for the development of new antifungal drugs and as candidates for future in vitro testing.

Abstract
The consequences of COVID-19 are not limited to physical health deterioration; the impact on neuropsychological well-being is also substantially reported. The inter-regulation of physical health and psychological well-being through the psychoneuroendocrineimmune (PNEI) axis has enduring consequences in susceptibility, treatment outcome as well as recuperation. The pandemic effects are upsetting the lifestyle, social interaction, and financial security; and also pose a threat through perceived fear. These consequences of COVID-19 also influence the PNEI system and wreck the prognosis. The nutritional status of individuals is also reported to have a determinative role in COVID-19 severity and convalescence. In addition to energetic demand, diet also provides precursor substances [amino acids (AAs), vitamins, etc.] for regulators of the PNEI axis such as neurotransmitters (NTs) and immunomodulators. Moreover, exaggerated immune response and recovery phase of COVID-19 demand additional nutrient intake; widening the gap of pre-existing undernourishment. Mushrooms, fresh fruits and vegetables, herbs and spices, and legumes are few of such readily available food ingredients which are rich in protein and also have medicinal benefits. BRICS nations have their influences on global development and are highly impacted by a large number of confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths. The adequacy and access to healthcare are also low in BRICS nations as compared to the rest of the world. Attempt to combat the COVID-19 pandemic are praiseworthy in BRICS nations. However, large population sizes, high prevalence of undernourishment (PoU), and high incidence of mental health ailments in BRICS nations provide a suitable landscape for jeopardy of COVID-19. Therefore, appraising the interplay of nutrition and PNEI modulation especially in BRICS countries will provide better understanding; and will aid in combat COVID-19. It can be suggested that the monitoring will assist in designing adjunctive interventions through medical nutrition therapy and psychopsychiatric management.

Abstract
Along with direct anticancer activity, curcumin hinders the onset of chemoresistance. Among many, high glucose condition is a key driving factor for chemoresistance. However, the ability of curcumin remains unexplored against high glucose-induced chemoresistance. Moreover, chemoresistance is major hindrance in effective clinical management of liver cancer. Using hepatic carcinoma HepG2 cells, the present investigation demonstrates that high glucose induces chemoresistance, which is averted by the simultaneous presence of curcumin. Curcumin obviated the hyperglycemia-induced modulations like elevated glucose consumption, lactate production, and extracellular acidification, and diminished nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Modulated molecular regulators are suggested to play a crucial role as curcumin pretreatment also prevented the onset of chemoresistance by high glucose. High glucose instigated suppression in the intracellular accumulation of anticancer drug doxorubicin and drug-induced chromatin compactness along with declined expression of drug efflux pump MDR-1 and transcription factors and signal transducers governing the survival, aggressiveness, and apoptotic cell death (p53, HIF-1α, mTOR, MYC, STAT3). Curcumin alleviated the suppression of drug retention and nuclear condensation along with hindering the high glucose-induced alterations in transcription factors and signal transducers. High glucose-driven resistance in cancer cells was associated with elevated expression of metabolic enzymes HKII, PFK1, GAPDH, PKM2, LDH-A, IDH3A, and FASN. Metabolite transporters and receptors (GLUT-1, MCT-1, MCT-4, and HCAR-1) were also found upregulated in high glucose exposed HepG2 cells. Curcumin inhibited the elevated expression of these enzymes, transporters, and receptors in cancer cells. Curcumin also uplifted the SDH expression, which was inhibited in high glucose condition. Taken together, the findings of the present investigation first time demonstrate the ability of curcumin against high glucose-induced chemoresistance, along with its molecular mechanism. This will have implication in therapeutic management of malignancies in diabetic conditions.

Abstract
The novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is caused by a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus which belongs to the Coronaviridae family. In March 2019 the World Health Organization declared that COVID-19 was a pandemic. COVID-19 patients typically have a fever, dry cough, dyspnea, fatigue, and anosmia. Some patients also report gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, including diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, as well as liver enzyme abnormalities. Surprisingly, many studies have found severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral RNA in rectal swabs and stool specimens of asymptomatic COVID-19 patients. In addition, viral receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 and transmembrane protease serine-type 2, were also found to be highly expressed in gastrointestinal epithelial cells of the intestinal mucosa. Furthermore, SARS-CoV-2 can dynamically infect and replicate in both GI and liver cells. Taken together these results indicate that the GI tract is a potential target of SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, the present review summarizes the vital information available to date on COVID-19 and its impact on GI aspects.

Abstract
The severity of the recent pandemic and the absence of any specific medication impelled the identification of existing drugs with potential in the treatment of Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Curcumin, known for its pharmacological abilities especially as an anti-inflammatory agent, can be hypothesized as a potential candidate in the therapeutic regimen. COVID-19 has an assorted range of pathophysiological consequences, including pulmonary damage, elevated inflammatory response, coagulopathy, and multi-organ damage. This review summarizes the several evidences for the pharmacological benefits of curcumin in COVID-19-associated clinical manifestations. Curcumin can be appraised to hinder cellular entry, replication of SARS-CoV-2, and to prevent and repair COVID-19-associated damage of pneumocytes, renal cells, cardiomyocytes, hematopoietic stem cells, etc. The modulation and protective effect of curcumin on cytokine storm-related disorders are also discussed. Collectively, this review provides grounds for its clinical evaluation in the therapeutic management of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Abstract
Curcumin has been demonstrated to affect the chemoresistance in cancer cells of various origins. However, its ability to modulate lactate-induced chemoresistance remains unclear. The Present investigation demonstrates that curcumin inhibits the survival of HepG2 and HuT78 cells and can modulate chemo-susceptibility of HepG2 cells. Experimental simulation of simultaneous and pre-treatment suggest cooperatively between curcumin and anticancer drugs as well as the modulation of molecular regulators. Inhibition of glucose consumption, lactate production, extracellular acidity and augmented level of Nitric oxide were observed. DAPI staining revealed hyper condensation of chromatin in curcumin-treated HepG2 cells. Curcumin also diminished the lactate-induced chemoresistance against doxorubicin in hepatic cancer cells along with down regulation of lactate receptor (hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor-1; HCAR-1/GPR81). Alteration of the extracellular milieu along with inhibited expression of genes (hif-1α, ldh-a, mct-1, mdr-1 and stat-3) and proteins (HIF-1α and HCAR-1) are indicated to be involved in curcumin-induced reversal of chemoresistance in HepG2 cells. Findings of present investigation contribute to knowledge of curcumin mediated chemosensitization and its mechanism.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is one of the fastest-growing fatal solid tumors across the world. The challenges with pancreatic cancer are delayed diagnosis and lack of effective treatment strategies. Pancreatic cancer is expected to become the third leading cause of cancer-related mortality in high-income countries in the coming decade. In most cases, patients are diagnosed at advanced stages, due to a lack of early symptoms, whereby the tumor is unresectable. Imaging, histopathology, and biomarker approaches are currently used for pancreatic cancer diagnosis. Imaging modalities for pancreatic cancer diagnosis include endoscopy, ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and positron emission tomography scanning. Along with imaging, histopathology helps in the identification of cancer stages and in therapeutic decisions. The multidisciplinary treatment option is the most common choice for pancreatic cancer and includes surgery, chemotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, and supportive care. Immunotherapy is the emerging approach for the treatment of pancreatic cancers. The present review summarizes the current literature and provides an overview of both the diagnostic and therapeutic options for the effective management of pancreatic carcinoma.

Abstract
Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory drug demonstrated to possess a tremendous anticancer potential. As progression of some tumors is influenced by sex hormones, we investigated if the antineoplastic action of aspirin shows gender dependence. Using a murine model of T-cell lymphoma, the present investigation was undertaken to study if the antitumor actions of aspirin against lymphoma cells display gender dimorphism. The findings of the present investigation indicate that aspirin administration to male and female tumor-bearing hosts resulted in gender dependent differential tumor growth retardation. Such gender dichotomy of aspirin's antitumor action was associated with a differential impact on cell cycle progression and expression of cell survival regulatory molecules. Aspirin administration was also found to modulate crucial parameters of tumor microenvironment, including contents of glucose, lactate and cell growth regulatory cytokines, in a gender specific manner. Aspirin was found to reverse estrogen-dependent augmentation of tumor cell survival in vitro. Taken together the results of the present study suggest that the antineoplastic action of aspirin is gender-dependent and should be considered in designing of gender-specific therapeutic applications of aspirin.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are being considered for antineoplastic therapeutic regimens due to their ability to reverse H(+) homeostasis in tumor microenvironment and induce tumor cell death. In order to explore additional mechanism(s) underlying antitumor action of PPI, the present investigation was undertaken to investigate the effect of a PPI pantoprazole (PPZ) on the activation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) to tumoricidal state in a murine model of a transplantable T cell lymphoma of spontaneous origin growing in ascitic form. In vivo administration of PPZ to tumor-bearing mice resulted in an enhanced TAM recruitment in tumor microenvironment with M1 macrophage phenotype and augmented activation of TAM to tumoricidal state along with expression of tumor cytotoxic molecules. The study also demonstrates that TAM activating action of PPZ is of indirect nature mediated via its antitumor activity, reversal of tumor-induced immunosuppression and a consequent shift of cytokine balance in the tumor microenvironment favoring polarization of macrophages to M1 type. The study further shows that adoptive transfer of TAM harvested from PPZ-administered tumor-bearing hosts causes an efficient retardation of tumor growth. Possible mechanisms and significance of these observations with respect to the designing of antitumor therapy using PPI are discussed.

Abstract
Mechanisms underlying tumor growth retarding effect of proton pump inhibitor pantoprazole (PPZ) on a murine T cell lymphoma, designated as Dalton's lymphoma (DL), were investigated. In vivo administration of PPZ to tumor-bearing mice resulted in retardation of tumor progression owing to an inhibition of tumor cell survival and augmented apoptosis. An alteration in the parameters of tumor microenvironment and modulation in the expression of cell growth regulatory molecules is indicated to be involved in PPZ-dependent tumor growth retardation. These findings will help in optimizing therapeutic strategies against cancer using PPZ.
