Abstract
Centrosomes are the vital component of cell cycle progression pathway. Recent investigations have suggested their role in regulating the immune response system. Centrosome polarization delivers secretory granules to the immunological synapse (IS). The Cytotoxic T lymphocytes use a specific mechanism, controlled by centrosome delivery to the plasma membrane for delivering the secretory granules to the immunological synapse. Moreover, the polarization of centrioles to the immunological synapse directs secretion from cytolytic cells of innate as well as adaptive immune systems. Although the recent investigations have suggested their strong role in mediating the crucial events of immunological response, there are few discrepancies that are yet to be resolved. Furthermore, a clear picture of their molecular mechanism along with their cellular functions has not been reported. In this manuscript we have reviewed some important points that explain the importance of centrosomes in mediating the immunological signals and the delivery of lytic discharge from the cytotoxic and killer cells.

New drug therapy for eye diseases
Eyesight is one of the most critical senses, accounting for over 80% of our perceptions. Our quality of life might be significantly affected by eye disease, including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, dry eye, etc. Although the development of microinvasive ocular surgery reduces surgical complications and improves overall outcomes, medication therapy is ...read more
Therapeutic Chemical and RNA Design with Artificial Intelligence
Computer-Aided Drug Design (CADD) has emerged as a fundamental component of modern drug discovery. Molecular docking facilitates virtual screening on a large scale through structural simulations. However, traditional CADD approaches face significant limitations, as they can only screen known compounds from existing libraries. PubChem, as the most widely used chemical ...read more
