Bird species diversity and distribution research is important for conservation efforts in various protected areas. However, the richness and distribution of birds in Ghamot National Park are unknown. Based on land cover attributes, the research region was divided into five habitat categories. During 2020-21, a point transect count was used softly up to 30-50 m radius with a random sample approach. One-way ANOVA was used to evaluate the data. This research discovered a total of 38 families totaling 127 species. Muscicapidae was numerically the dominant family (n=18; 14.17%) Highest number of individuals (n=938; 24.26%) was recorded from Agricultural crop zone (along the surgan stream; elevation ranges between 2750-3050m) Minimum number of individuals was recorded in alpine pasture, alpine meadows and wetland (n=113; 2.92%) at an elevation ranges between 3950-4400m. 47 (37%) species were recorded summer migrant, 59 (46.45%) were residential of study area, 3 (2.36%) species were recorded irregular year round migrant and 18 (14.17%) species were winter migrant. It was recorded that maximum number of species (n=90; 70.86%) breed (+) in study area however least number

The HOXA5 gene is an important tumor suppressor gene, which has the function of regulating cell cycle, proliferation, and differentiation. Down regulation or inactivation of HOXA5 expression occurs in a variety of malignant tumors such as oral cancer (OC) and breast cancer. The promoter region of HOXA5 gene is often methylated, and it is of great value to explore the relationship between its methylation status and gene expression level. The objective of this study was to explore the promoter methylation status of tumor suppressor gene HOXA5 in OC. HOXA5 mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR. OC CAL-27, H357, and HSC-3 cells were treated with different concentrations of 5-aza-deoxyeytidine to analyze the inhibitory effect of 5-aza-deoxyeytidine on methylation. The methylation status of HOXA5 gene promoter was closely related to OC. 5Aza-CdR could induce the expression of HOXA5 mRNA in OC cells, promote cell apoptosis, and inhibit the growth and spread of tumor cells. The promoter region of HOXA5 gene is hypermethylated in OC. It was concluded that 5Aza-CdR can inhibit the activity of DNA methyltransferase, restore the expression of HOXA5 gene, and inhibit the proliferation and spread of cancer cells.

Milk is a complete liquid food source since it contains rich amount of protein, fat and major minerals. Presence of trace amount of toxic metals in milk products by any means make it unfit for human consumption. The aim of this study was to evaluate metals in raw milk of buffalos and cows from different farms of district Quetta. Fifty-six whole raw milk samples from cows and buffalos were collected and analyzed using atomic absorption spectroscopy for metal contents. Levels of metals (mean±SD) such as mercury (1.97±0.49 ppm), antimony (0.37±0.08 ppm) and aluminum (0.49±0.33 ppm) exceeded the maximum permissible concentration whereas, all other studied metals including arsenic, lead, iron, sodium, cobalt and chromium were below the recommended standard values of
