Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDistribution, Arrangement and Interconnectedness of Cell Surface Receptor sites in the body of an OrganismUtoh-Nedosa, Uchechukwu AnastasiaCell surface receptors have been identified as the sites of disease infectivity in living organisms in a previous study. Drugs used for the treatment or cure of infections have to eliminate infections through attacking infective organisms at the cell surface receptors to which the infective organisms are attached. Problem statement: The present study examines a wide sample of living things … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 26 Jan 2012 · 7,355 accessesView PDFCite

Problem statement: The present study investigated the effects of increased protein intake on the human skin and on body fat. The skin firming, skin smoothing … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2011 · 7,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEfficient Anaerobic Fermentation of Simple Sugars by Yeast Fuels Resistance Candida spp. Infections to Eradication by DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Human systemic Candida infections had proved difficult to eradicate by the medical health care system. Some practitioners and scholars see the problem as being due to drug resistance. For example an author wrote that ‘secondary drug resistance is clearly being encountered in one setting, oropharyngeal candidiasis in patients with advanced Human Immunodeficiency Virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection usually … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 10 Dec 2011 · 7,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesErythropoietin-Like Effects of Dihydroartemisinin in Wistar Albino RatsUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Nedosa Kenechi Stanislaus, Onyedibe Ikenna KennethArtemisinin drugs were active during the intra-erythrocytic stage of malaria parasite infection. The activity of artemisinin and synthetic endoperoxides was related to their interaction with heme. The electrophillic intermediate formed from artemisinin in the presence of heme alkylates the protein portion of hemoglobin preferentially to the heme portion. Problem statement: Since there might be an interaction between artemisinin and the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2011 · 7,785 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDihydroartemisinin-Stimulated Hyperplasia of Rat Lung Smooth MusclesUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: Dihydroartemisinin was shown to produce two types of inhibitory effects on the cardiac muscles of rats. It was also shown to stimulate haemopoiesis in the lungs, liver, spleen, intestine and kidney of rats. This study attempted to find out the nature of the effect of oral dihydroartemisinin on the lungs of Wistar albino rats. Approach: The effects of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 8 Dec 2011 · 7,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSlow Fungal Hydrolysis of Complex Sugar is Responsible for the Use of Sugar as Vehicle for Antifungal DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Aspergillus niger strain (UUF 9202) significantly reduced the dormancy period and boosted aggregate germination time in seeds of Tetrapleura tetraptera by 42% in 32 days and produced a net reduction in mean germination time of the seeds to 12 days. A structure-fungitoxicity relationship study of a series of isoflavonoids against Aspergillus niger and Cladosporium cucumerinum showed that a … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCell Surface Receptor Theory of Disease Infectivity; Body's Defence and Normal Body Functioning in Living ThingsUtoh-Nedosa, Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: A study of the pattern of Candida spp. infection of the human body and the mode and pattern of reaction of the human body to this infection showed that disease infectivity and self healing by plants followed the same procedures and patterns. Approach: A comparism of these procedures and patterns of natural self- healing of disease infection by … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,240 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesMechanisms of Anti-Cancer Effects of Vernonia amygdalina Leaf ExtractUtoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu AnastasiaProblem statement: Vernonia amygdalina (V. amygdalina) has been shown to have cancer cell inhibition and cytotoxic effects. Approach: This study discusses the multi-faceted and multi-linked mechanisms by which cancer tissue inhibition and destruction is achieved by V. amygdalina leaf extract and powder (subsequently called V. amygdalina Extract). Cancer cell inhibition by V. amygdalina is suggested to occur through inhibition of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 26 Oct 2011 · 9,090 accessesView PDFCite
