Decreased Interfacial Dynamics Caused by the N501Y Mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 S1 Spike:ACE2 Complex by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…In this regard, the recent SARS-CoV-2 alpha, beta, and gamma variants (B.1.1.7, B.1.351, and P.1 lineages, respectively) are of great significance in that they contain several mutations that increase their transmission rates as evident from clinical reports. …”

Sleeve Gastrectomy in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: Anthropometric and Cardiometabolic Improvements at 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9 years—Are the Initial Benefits Sustained? by Wahiba Elhag (5245547)

“…Generally, most improvements occurred in the first year and were sustained on the long term. Postoperatively, there was a significant and sustained weight reduction, amounting to a mean decrease of 9 kg/m² in BMI at year 9 and associated excess weight loss between 59%_year 1 and 46%_year 9. …”

Deletion of <i>RFX6</i> impairs iPSC-derived islet organoid development and survival, with no impact on PDX1⁺/NKX6.1⁺ progenitors by Noura Aldous (15429873)

“…Single-cell analysis revealed high RFX6 expression levels in endocrine clusters across various hESC-derived pancreatic differentiation stages. Upon differentiating iPSCs lacking RFX6 into pancreatic islets, a significant decrease in PDX1 expression at the PF stage was observed, although this did not affect PPs co-expressing PDX1 and NKX6.1. …”

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…In this regard, engineering of brighter bioluminescent proteins, i.e. luciferases, has played a significant role. …”

An innovative simulated annealing approach to the long-term hydroscheduling problem by Mantawy, A.H.

“…An adaptive cooling schedule and a new method for variables discretization are implemented to enhance the speed and convergence of the original SAA. A significant reduction in the number of the objective function evaluations, and consequently less iterations are required to reach the optimal solution. …”

STIM1 signals through NFAT1 independently of Orai1 and SOCE to regulate breast cancer cell migration by Ayat S. Hammad (9592374)

“…Interestingly, NFAT1 is significantly downregulated in STIM1-KO cells and overexpression of NFAT1 reversed the enhanced migration of STIM1-KO cells. …”

Long-term treatment issues with chromite ore processing residue (COPR) by Moon, Deok Hyun

“…However, the Cr6+ concentration from the sample with the smaller particle size approached 240 mg/kg (338 mg/kg), suggesting that particle size reduction prior to the addition of reductant may improve the effectiveness of the treatment. …”

Notch Signaling Inhibition by LY411575 Attenuates Osteoblast Differentiation and Decreased Ectopic Bone Formation Capacity of Human Skeletal (Mesenchymal) Stem Cells by Nihal AlMuraikhi (6002234)

“…Among the tested molecules, LY411575, a potent γ-secretase and Notch signaling inhibitor, exhibited significant inhibitory effects on osteoblastic differentiation of hBMSCs manifested by reduced ALP activity, mineralized matrix formation, and decreased osteoblast-specific gene expression as well as in vivo ectopic bone formation. …”
