Enzymes are nothing but the necessary proteins that maintain the various biological and chemical functions within the body and these include processes like digesting food to activating the brain and thousands of others. Enzymes act as a catalyst for millions of reactions that happen within the body, that make us grow, sleep, communicate, get hungry, feel and many more. Overall, it makes us live.
The growth and reproduction of life, birth and death, and metabolism are all related to enzymes. Without the catalysis of enzymes, humans can't even carry out the most basic life activities, such as food digestion, oxygen breathing, etc., let alone other problems. In fact, almost all kinds of reactions occurring in living organisms are carried out by enzyme catalysis. We can even say that the existe…

According to the different nutrient modes of microalgae, the culture modes can be divided into photoautotrophic culture, mixed culture and heterotrophic culture. And according to the different culture methods, the culture of microalgae can be divided into batch culture, fed-batch culture, semi-continuous culture and continuous culture. This article introduces the cultivation of microalgae.
m the physiological point of view, most microalgae should have the ability to grow heterotrophically. The growth process of microalgae using organic matter mainly has two forms: one is that microalgae can use organic matter to carry out heterotrophic growth under completely dark conditions, and there is no difference between the general chemical heterotrophic organisms; another form is that microalgae us…

Pancreatic cancer is considered to be the most deadly cancer and difficult to cope with. In order to solve the rapid formation of tumors in vivo, experts and scientists are busy looking for ways to stop the development of cancer and gradually eliminate its formation.
Although the pancreas is small, it has an extraordinary effect and can be said to be one of the most important organs for mankind. It is important because it is a gland with internal and external secretory functions, and its physiological and pathological changes are closely related to life. The exocrine part accounts for 95% of the pancreas and forms an exocrine gland. Endocrine cells are called islets, accounting for the remaining 5%, and they spread throughout the pancreas to form endocrine glands. The main function…

The UK Government is at risk of missing its target to increase healthy life expectancy by five years by 2035, according to a new report, Growing Older, Better, published by The Physiological Society on Tuesday 15 October.
Healthy life expectancy, which is the number of years lived in good health, has not increased as quickly as life expectancy in recent decades, which means people are living more years in poor health. The UK Government’s Industrial Strategy contains a target of “ensur[ing] that people can enjoy at least five extra healthy, independent years of life by 2035, while narrowing the gap between the experience of the richest and poorest”. This new report, which is the result of a project involving an expert panel of researchers, funders and public health policy makers, outlines co…

Mojgan Sani has recently taken over the role of Chief Pharmacist at North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust. Here she talks about how the automation of medication management can help meet many of the challenges currently facing the NHS.
Accessibility to social care isn’t the only issue causing bed blocking across the NHS – pharmacy have a crucial role to play in freeing up bed space too. As a profession, we need to look at streamlining the process for To Take Out (TTO) medication and how automation can achieve this. The latest annual inpatient survey by the Care Quality Commission found 73% of patients “whose discharge had been delayed” said the main reason was “that they had to wait for medicines”. Of the 76,668 patients who responded more than a quarter said they had wa…

Resistance to anticancer drugs results from a variety of factors, and individual genetic difference is just one of them. This article is about how to overcome drug resistance against KRAS inhibitors in cancer treatment.
Recently, KRAS and KRAS-G12C mutant inhibitors, which were previously considered to be "non-drugable" targets, have ignited a development boom. However, KRAS inhibitors are not a "magic bullet" for once and for all. Drug resistance is a major problem that frequently occurs in cancer treatment. In clinical practice, tumor tissue becomes significantly smaller after targeted therapy, but soon deteriorates again. Such scenes are commonly observed in real situations. Amgen's latest clinical trial results also indicate that some patients treated with the KRAS-G12C inhibitor AMG 51…
