Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial Action of Curcumin against Staphylococcus aureus: A Brief Review.
TL;DR: This review focuses on the antibacterial activities of curcumin against both methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) and methiillin-resistant S.A. aUREus (MRSA), and attempts to highlight the potential challenges in the effort of developingCurcumin into a therapeutic antibacterial agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic Characterization of HIV Type 1 Nef-Induced Vesicle Secretion
Syed A. Ali,Ming-Bo Huang,Patrick E. Campbell,William W. Roth,Tamika D. Campbell,Mahfuz Khan,Gale W. Newman,Francois Villinger,Michael D. Powell,Vincent C. Bond +9 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesized that specific structural domains on the Nef protein interact with components of the endosomal trafficking machinery, sorting Nef into multivesicular bodies (MVB) and packaging it in exosome-like vesicles, and regulating its secretion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Latent activity of curcumin against leishmaniasis in vitro.
Danish Saleheen,Syed A. Ali,Khalid Ashfaq,Anwar Ali Siddiqui,Ajmal Agha,Muhammad Masoom Yasinzai +5 more
TL;DR: Activity of curcumin proves to be far more potent then pentamidine against AALC which further strengthens the fact about its leishmaniacidal activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secretion modification region-derived peptide disrupts HIV-1 Nef's interaction with mortalin and blocks virus and Nef exosome release
TL;DR: This work constitutes a significant step in understanding the underlying mechanism of exNef secretion, identifies a novel host-pathogen interaction, and introduces an HIV-derived peptide with antiviral properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid on hyperhomocysteinemia in a Pakistani population of patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Mohammad Perwaiz Iqbal,M. Ishaq,Khawar Kazmi,Farzana Abubakar Yousuf,Naseema Mehboobali,Syed A. Ali,A.H. Khan,Mohammad A. Waqar +7 more
TL;DR: Substantial nutritional deficiencies of these three vitamins along with mild hyperhomocysteinemia, perhaps through an interplay with the classical cardiovascular risk factors, could be further aggravating the risk of CAD in the Pakistani population.
