Abstract:
Abstract Dust pollution can negatively affect plant productivity in hot, dry areas with high insolation during summer. To understand the effect of water-deficit and its interaction with dust pollution on vegetative and physiological changes in grapevine ʻBidaneh Sefidʼ, two-year-old plants were subjected to drought stress (-0.1 and -1 MPa) and dust treatment in a greenhouse during 2013 and 2014. The results showed that dust had a significant negative effect on the number of leaves, shoot length, root and shoot dry weights, and total dry weight under both drought and well-irrigated conditions. Dust, when applied in combination with drought, caused severe growth reduction. Leaf relative water content (RWC) and membrane stability index (MSI) were reduced under dust and drought stress, while soluble carbohydrate, proline, malondialdehyde (MDA) and H2O2 concentrations increased. Furthermore, dust application resulted in characteristics similar to those induced by water-deficit stress and intensified vegetative and physiological changes when applied together. Dust and drought treatments increased peroxidases and ascorbate peroxidase activities when compared to the control. The results indicate that dust has an adverse effect on the growth and physiology of grapevine and plays a negative role in the response of grapevine to drought stress.

Abstract:
Dust is the collection of fine particles of solid matter, and it is a major issue of atmospheric pollution. Dust particles are becoming the major pollutants of the urban environment due to hyperbolic manufacturing and automobile pollution. These atmospheric pollutants are not only hazardous for human beings, but they also affect tree growth, particularly in urban environments. This study was designed to examine the changes in morphological and physiological traits of three tree species seedlings (Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Conocarpus erectus, and Bombax ceiba) in response to different dust types. In a pot experiment under controlled conditions, three-month-old seedlings of selected trees species were subjected to four treatments of dust: T1 = controlled; T2 = wood dust; T3 = soil dust; and T4 = carbon dust. During the whole experiment, 10 g/plant/dose was applied in 8 doses with a one-week interval. The results depicted that the growth was the maximum in T1 (control) and the minimum in T4 (carbon dust). In our findings, B. ceiba performed better under the same levels of dust pollution as compared with the other two tree species. The B. ceiba tree species proved to be the most tolerant to dust pollution by efficiently demolishing oxidative bursts by triggering SOD, POD, and CAT under different dust types compared to controlled conditions. Stomatal conductance, photosynthetic rate, and transpiration rate were negatively influenced in all three tree species in response to different dust applications. Based on the findings, among these three tree species, B. ceiba is recommended for dust polluted areas followed by E. camaldulensis and Conocarpus erectus due to their better performance and efficient dust-foraging potential.

Abstract:
Chlorophyll is the dominant pigment in the photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes that is related to the physiological function of leaves and is responsible for light absorption and energy transfer. Dust pollution has become an environmental problem in many areas in China, indicating that accurately estimating chlorophyll content of vegetation using remote sensing for assessing the vegetation growth status in dusty areas is vital. However, dust deposited on the leaf may affect the chlorophyll content retrieval accuracy. Thus, quantitatively studying the dustfall effect is essential. Using selected vegetation indices (VIs), the medium resolution imaging spectrometer terrestrial chlorophyll index (MTCI), and the double difference index (DD), we studied the retrieval accuracy of chlorophyll content at the leaf scale under dusty environments based on a laboratory experiment and spectra simulation. First, the retrieval accuracy under different dustfall amounts was studied based on a laboratory experiment. Then, the relationship between dustfall amount and fractional dustfall cover (FDC) was experimentally analyzed for spectra simulation of dusty leaves. Based on spectral data simulated using a PROSPECT-based mixture model, the sensitivity of VIs to dust under different chlorophyll contents was analyzed comprehensively, and the MTCI was modified to reduce its sensitivity to dust. The results showed that (1) according to experimental investigation, the DD model provides low retrieval accuracy, the MTCI model is highly accurate when the dustfall amount is less than 80 g/m2, and the retrieval accuracy decreases significantly when the dustfall amount is more than 80 g/m2; (2) a logarithmic relationship exists between FDC and dustfall amount, and the PROSPECT-based mixture model can simulate the leaf spectra under different dustfall amounts and different chlorophyll contents with a root mean square error of 0.015; and (3) according to numerical investigation, MTCI’s sensitivity to dust in the chlorophyll content range of 25 to 60 μg/cm2 is lower than in other chlorophyll content ranges; DD’s sensitivity to dust was generally high throughout the whole chlorophyll content range. These findings may contribute to quantitatively understanding the dustfall effect on the retrieval of chlorophyll content and would help to accurately retrieve chlorophyll content in dusty areas using remote sensing.

Abstract:
The difference in vigour between Picea abies (L.) Karst. and Abies alba Mill, in an area exposed to fine dust containing MgO is reflected in scanning electron microscope studies of the needle surfaces. The greater vitality of the silver fir is correlated with intact wax structures and a somewhat lower dust load. In contrast, the spruce reveals a marked effect on the epicuticular wax by a heavy fine-dust load. Possible causes and physiological consequences are discussed.

Abstract:
Air pollution remains a serious problem in Krakow, Poland. According to the European Environmental Agency, annual mean levels of both PM2.5 and PM10 recorded in Krakow are much higher than EU limit values. Thus, the influence of particulate matter (PM) on the function of living organisms, as well as different physiological processes, is an urgent subject to be studied. The reported research forms part of the multi-disciplinary project ‘Air Pollution versus Autoimmunity: Role of multiphase aqueous Inorganic Chemistry,’ which aims to demonstrate the PM effect on the immune system. The present studies focused on the role of dust collected in Krakow on the redox cycling of vitamin B12a in the presence of ascorbic acid. Dust samples collected during the winter 2019/2020 and summer 2020 months in the city center of Krakow were characterized using various analytical techniques. The influence of Krakow dusts on the kinetics of the reaction between nitrocobalamin and ascorbic acid was confirmed and discussed in terms of the composition of the samples. Possible reasons for the reported findings are provided.

Abstract:
All over the world, increasing anthropogenic activities, industrialization, and urbanization have intensified the emissions of various pollutants that cause air pollution. Marble quarries in Pakistan are abundant and there is a plethora of small- and large-scale industries, including mining and marble-based industries. The air pollution caused by the dust generated in the process of crushing and extracting marble can cause serious problems to the general physiological functions of plants and it affects human life as well. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to assess the air quality of areas with marble factories and areas without marble factories, where the concentration of particulate matter in terms of total suspended particles (TSP) was determined. For this purpose, EPAM-5000 equipment was used to measure the particulate levels. Besides this, a spectrophotometer was used to analyze the presence of PM2.5 and PM10 in the chemical composition of marble dust. It was observed that the TSP concentrations in Darmangi and Malagori areas of Peshawar, Pakistan—having marble factories—were 626 µg/m3 and 5321 µg/m3 respectively. The (PM2.5, PM10) concentration in Darmangi was (189 µg/m3, 520 µg/m3) and in Malagori, it was recorded as (195 µg/m3, 631 µg/m3), which was significantly higher than the non-marble dust areas and also exceeded WHO recommended standards. It was concluded that the areas with the marble factories were more susceptible to air pollution as the concentration of TSP was significantly higher than the recommended TSP levels. It is recommended that marble factories should be shifted away from residential areas along with strict enforcement. People should be instructed to use protective equipment and waste management should be ensured along with control mechanisms to monitor particulate levels.

Abstract:
Phencyclidine (PCP, ‘angel dust’) is an arylcyclohexylamine dissociative anaesthetic. It was first abused in the United States in New York and San Francisco in the 1960s, but abuse declined when a broad range of adverse complications was noted. Agents that alter perception and mood without disorientation typify hallucinogenic drugs. They have been known and used for millennia for purposes ranging from magical to medical. Hallucinogenic drugs comprise not so much a single class of compounds, but a multiple classes affecting different neuronal receptors. This chapter looks at the epidemiology, acute physiological effects, and adverse effects of both PCP and hallucinogens. it also covers PCP delirium, PCP-induced psychotic disorder, PCP abuse, dependence, and organic mental disorder, and finally human experimentation with hallucinogens.

Abstract:
An allergy is an overreaction of the immune system to a substance called an antigen, e.g., pollen from grasses, dust mites, etc. The drugs used for allergy in allopathy have undesirable side effects. The use of medicinal plants becomes popular due to the adverse effects of allopathic drugs. Nutraceuticals are food playing a significant role in maintaining normal physiological function. Mast cells are immunologically important cells found in almost all parts of our body, and contain histamines, leukotrienes within their granular sacs, along with those of basophils, are responsible for the symptoms of allergy. According to sources mast cell stabilizers can be classified into three categories, e.g., synthetic, semi synthetic and natural. Mast cell stabilising agents from natural resources can be obtained from different group of compounds, e.g., flavonoids, coumarins, phenols, terpenoids, alkaloids. In this book chapter, the active constituents present in them and their mode of action are highlighted using techniques of computational biology, e.g., molecular docking, etc.

Abstract:
The thyroid gland, which is the largest endocrine organ, secretes primarily thyroid hormones that play a critical role in the normal growth and development of the maturing human. In the adult, thyroid hormones maintain metabolic stability by regulating oxygen requirements, body weight, and intermediary metabolism. Thyroid function is under hypothalamic-pituitary control, and thus, like the gonads and adrenal cortex, it serves as a classical model of endocrine physiology. In addition, the physiological effects of thyroid hormones are regulated by complex extrathyroidal mechanisms resulting from the peripheral metabolism of the hormones, mechanisms that are not under hypothalamic-pituitary regulation. Thyroid function abnormalities are very prevalent, especially in females and in certain geographic areas, and are often a result of autoimmunity or iodine deficiency. The thyroid originates from two distinct parts of the embryonic endoderm: • The follicular structures arise from a midline thickening of the anterior pharyngeal floor (the base of the tongue), adjacent to the differentiating heart. This thyroid diverticulum first expands ventrally while still attached to the pharyngeal floor by its stalk (thyroglossal duct), and then expands laterally, leading to the characteristic bilobed structure. As the developing heart descends, the thyroid gets pulled into its final position, a process that leads to the rapid stretch and degeneration of the thyroglossal duct. • The parafollicular cells are derived from the ultimobranchial bodies (originating from the neural crest) but ultimately are surrounded by the medial thyroid. The parafollicular cells represents <10 % of the adult thyroid gland. The thyroid completes its structural development by 9 weeks of gestation, the first endocrine organ to assume its definitive form during organogenesis; yet full functional maturation and integration with the hypothalamic-pituitary axis continues throughout gestation. Abnormal thyroid development can lead to persistence of the thyroglossal duct, presence of ectopic thyroid tissue (lingual thyroid, lateral aberrant thyroid), and malposition (thoracic goiter), all of which can remain clinically silent or present later in life as diagnostic challenges. The shape of the human thyroid resembles that of a butterfly.

Abstract:
In order to perform the drug delivery via lung, tracking the trajectories of fine inhaled particles in the acinar airways is of high importance. The causes of irreversibility in the motion of fine particles (0.1–1 micron) and chaotic flow deep in the acinar region of lung has been always under investigation. In this study we demonstrate the importance of geometric hystersis and asynchrony of lung deformation on the issue. We adapted a 2D axisymmetric geometry of alveolated duct from recent relative works and deformed it in a way that some hystersis would appear in a respiration period. The overall deformation of duct was corresponding to the transpulmonary pressure of lung reported in physiological books and the Re number was matched with the actual flow in acinar airways. The geometric hystersis had the same amount as the measured hystersis in rat lungs available in relative literature. We performed a lagrangian particle tracking for different cases with and without geometric hystersis. Results confirm that as soon as some asynchrony appears in wall motion the trajectories of particles become extremely irreversible and hence we propose that the geometric hystersis can be a principal reason for observed irreversibility in acinar airways.
