Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus. The microbes inhabiting the oral cavity and gut might play crucial roles in maintaining a favorable gut environment, and their relationship with SARS-CoV-2 infection susceptibility and severity is yet to be full...

SARS-CoV-2 has been highly susceptible to mutations since its emergence in Wuhan, China, and its subsequent propagation due to containing an RNA as its genome. The emergence of variants with improved transmissibility still poses a grave threat to global health. The spike protein mutation is mainly r...

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is expressed at elevated levels by most cancer cells, which can stimulate vascular endothelial cell growth, survival, proliferation as well as trigger angiogenesis modulated by VEGF and VEGFR (a tyrosine kinase receptor) signaling. The angiogenic effects of ...

Background Diabetes is a severe health burden for Bangladesh. Genetic polymorphism has been reported to be one of the major risk factors for diabetes in various studies. TCF7L2 (transcription factor 7 like 2) transcripts in the human β-cell have effects on β-cell survival, function, and Wnt signalin...

According to sparse information from various countries, the seasonal influenza virus circulation has drastically decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we show the cross-reactivity of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies against influenza viruses. Plasma samples were collected from 311 SARS-CoV-2 infec...

Multidrug-resistant bacteria, particularly extended-spectrum-beta-lactamase-producing (ESBL) bacteria, pose a significant global public health challenge. Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPN) is frequently implicated in cases of this resistance. This study aimed to investigate the presence of drug and metal r...
