Introduction Throughout the history of scientific research, the goal has always been to enhance human capabilities beyond natural limitations. Technology has allowed us to make our lives better through personalized medications, gene editing, Aesthetic surgery, neural implants, bionic prosthetics, and the Human-Machine interface. With advanced studies in biomedical engineering, pharmaceuticals, neurotechnology, and nanotechnology, there is the potential to create a future where we can cure physical abnormalities or intervene for aesthetic purposes. Wearable biosensors, for instance, can help athletes improve their performance, wearable biosensors can measure fluctuating insulin levels for diabetic patients, and augmented reality glasses can assist medical professionals in surgical simulations. Cognitive implants, which are non-invasive tech implanted in the brain, can improve memory and cognitive abilities. Micro-chipping for wireless transactions, without the need of phone or car

Characteristics and therapeutic properties of lactoferrin protein

-
Image
Abstract Lactoferrin, a multi-functional glycoprotein, is found in body fluids and exocrine glands. It serves as an essential iron-binding protein and has various beneficial properties. It plays a key role in iron regulation, immune modulation, lipid metabolism, gut health, and bone health. It shows potent antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. Its therapeutic potential extends to various conditions, including aging-related and chronic diseases, gastrointestinal health, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. It also shows promise for treating anemia and promoting healthy aging. Understanding its complex interactions with pathogens highlights its role as a modulator of immune responses. This review article emphasizes its multifaceted functions and its potential as a valuable therapeutic agent for human health. Keywords: Lactoferrin, glycoprotein, health, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging.   Introduction Lactoferrin, also known as lactotransferrin, i

SURVEY ON PUBLIC AWARENESS AND PERCEPTION ABOUT GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS

-
Image
INTRODUCTION Gene technology as a technology is potentially a short way to Improving domesticated plants and animals, mainly because it can bypass biological barriers for recombination and genetic exchange across unrelated species by creating transgenes.The term GMO may be used in a broad sense to include all life forms, but the most common application of the term is limited to confine GM plants and animals.The term “genetic modified organisms (GMO)” has become a controversial topic as its benefits for both food producers and consumers are companied by potential biomedical risks and environmental side effects. Increasing concerns from the public about GMO, particularly in the form of genetic modified (GM) foods, are aimed at the short- and long-lasting health problems that may result from this advanced biotechnology. Complex studies are being carried out around the world independently to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of GM foods. In this survey we attempt to summarize u
