Decreased methylglyoxal-mediated protein glycation in the healthy aging mouse model of ectopic expression of UCP1 in skeletal muscle by Jinit, Masania

“…We investigated protein glycation and oxidative damage in skeletal muscle of mice with UCP1 expression under control of the human skeletal actin promoter (HSA-mUCP1) at age 12 weeks (young) and 70 weeks (aged). We found both young and aged HSA-mUCP1 mice had decreased advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) formed from MG, lysine-derived Nε(1-carboxyethyl)lysine (CEL) and arginine-derived hydroimidazolone, MG-H1, whereas protein glycation by glucose forming Nε-fructosyl-lysine (FL) was increased ca. 2-fold, compared to wildtype controls. …”

Evaluation of the cementite morphology influence on the hydrogen induced crack nucleation and propagation path in carbon steels by Shabnam Karimi (19457575)

“…<p>The effect of cementite morphology on the crack initiation and growth path was studied using in situ electrochem-ical micro-cantilever bending (ECCB) technique under hydrogen (H) charging. Two carbon steels with lamellar cementite morphology (pearlitic microstructure) and spherical or broken lamellas cementite morphology (spheroidite microstructure), both with approximately the same carbon equivalent, were used in this study. …”
