Anti-Candida Activity of Geraniol: Effect on Hydrolytic Enzyme Secretion and Biofilm Formation
Existing antifungal drugs available today are low in efficacy, high in toxicity and cause multidrug resistance. Anti-Candida potential of geraniol, an acyclic monoterpene alcohol was evaluated and secretion of hydrolytic enzymes, adherence and biofilm ...

Nuclear Inositides and Inositide-Dependent Signaling Pathways in Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of hematological malignancies characterized by peripheral blood cytopenia and abnormal myeloproliferation, as well as a variable risk of evolution into acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The nucleus is
