Also investigated the antiviral effects of herbal preparations and phytochemicals against hepatitis B virus and liver carcinoma. The postdoctoral research was further continued in South Korea during 2010-2013 at Ajou University Suwon, National Cancer Center Seoul, and Gachon University Incheon. During this time and currently the major research work aims is to investigate the anticancer efficacy of natural products and other synthetic agents for development of sustainable and specific drugs in cancer therapy for humankind. Investigated the effect of a medicinal mushroom Inonotus obliquus against intestinal inflammation and colorectal cancer in cell cultures and mice models. Also studied the effect of midazolam anesthesia for its anticancer properties in human leukemia and colorectal cancer cell lines and in mice models. Studied the role of IGF1R SNPs and compared the frequencies of genotypes in associations with breast cancer risk. Also studied the expression of stress inducible gene, Growth Arrest and DNA Damage-inducible 45β (Gadd45β), and its transcriptional regulation in hypoxia exposed rat heart-derived cardiac cells and in vivo rat models.
