It gives me immense pleasure to pen a few words for our e-bulletin. At the onset I would like to thank the
last years editors and congratulate the newly selected editors for the current year.
Our first consideration is always in the best interest of the students. Our goal is to promote academic
excellence and continuous improvement.
I believe that excellence in education is aided by creating a learning environment in which all learners are
supported in maximizing their potential and talents. Education needs to focus on personalized learning
and instruction, while promoting an education system that is impartial, universally accessible, and meeting
the needs of all students.
It is of paramount importance that our learners have sufficient motivation and encouragement in order to
achieve their aims. We are all very proud of you, our students, and your accomplishments and look
forward to watching as you put your mark on the profession in the years ahead.
The call of the time is to progress, not merely to move ahead. Our progressive Management is looking
forward and wants our Institute to flourish as a Post Graduate Institute of Excellence. Steps are taken in
this direction and fruits of these efforts will be received by our students in the near future. Our Teachers
are committed and dedicated for the development of the institution by imparting their knowledge and play
the role of facilitator as well as role model to our students.
The Pharmacy profession is thriving with a multitude of possibilities, opportunities and positive
challenges. At Guru Nanak Institute of Pharmaceutical Science and Technology, our focus is on holistic
needs of our students.
I am confident that the students of GNIPST will recognize all the possibilities, take full advantage of the
opportunities and meet the challenges with purpose and determination.
Excellence in Education is not a final destination, it is a continuous walk. I welcome you to join us on
this path.
My best wishes to all.

Neurons in the eye change on the molecular level when they are
exposed to prolonged light, new research demonstrates. The
researchers could identify that a feedback signalling mechanism is
responsible for these changes. The innate neuronal property might
be utilized to protect neurons from degeneration or cell death in
the future.

If youve ever been hit with an intestinal bug, youve felt the
effects of infectious microbes on your digestive system. But
scientists dont fully understand whats going on in gut infections
like that or in far more serious ones. Now, a team of scientists
will tackle that issue in a new way.

more than five years to reduce the burden of chemo drugs on the
body.
The team has created a class of molecules called immunotoxins to
specifically target cancer cells, while leaving healthy cells
unaffected. Rama S Verma, who is leading the study, said: "Cancer
is characterised by unchecked and rapid cell division. The drugs
used in chemotherapy target these cells by interrupting the
process of cell division and killing cells in the process." However,
other cells, such as those in the bone marrow, hair follicles and
lining of the digestive tract, which divide at high rates, are also
killed
in
the
process.
"Though fraught with side-effects, chemotherapy is still the
mainstream treatment simply because it is the only effective
method
of
treatment.
We decided to do research on improving the targeting mechanism
of
the
drugs,"
said
Verma.
The team began by comparing the outer membranes of normal and
cancerous cells that have numerous chemical structures called
receptors embedded in them. Hormones and other chemicals are
naturally secreted in the body target and bind to these
receptors. Each hormone binds only to a single receptor, like a lock
and
key.
The team, after surveying blood samples of leukemia patients,
found a receptor that is more prominently present in cancerous
cells and engineered an immunotoxin to target tumour cells.
While the toxin part of the immunotoxin in is traditionally derived
from many sources-plant, bacteria (diphtheria), fungus or yeast,
the team focused on human toxins (proteins that are by products
of
metabolism)
to
create
the
molecules.
The next step is clinical studies-producing immunotoxins in large
amounts, and testing it on animals, in order to determine the
maximum dosage of each immunotoxin that can be administered
without causing harm.
