Intravenous administration of gold nanoparticles in rats exhibit alterations in sphingomyelins, bile acids, sphingolipids, and cholesterol esters levels by Haya Al-Sulaiti (5449256)

“…Notably, there was an increase in sphingomyelin (SM 34:2) levels (estimate 0.23, <i>p</i> ≤ 0.001), which are critical for cell membrane structure and signalling. Additionally, a decrease in glycochenodeoxycholic acid levels was also triggered by treatment with AuNPs, suggesting modulation of bile acid metabolism with potential effects on lipid homeostasis. …”

Dynamic Change in Insulin Resistance Induced by Free Fatty Acids Is Unchanged Though Insulin Sensitivity Improves Following Endurance Exercise in PCOS by Myint Myint Aye (6404327)

“…<h3>Background</h3><p dir="ltr">Insulin resistance (IR) is the hallmark of PCOS and it is known that exercise may decrease it. What is unknown is whether exercise may mechanistically alter the underlying IR, attenuating the dynamic lipid induced IR in insulin resistant subjects.…”

Polyaniline/Polystyrene Blends: In-Depth Analysis of the Effect of Sulfonic Acid Dopant Concentration on AC Conductivity Using Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy by Noora Al-Thani (14147829)

“…Increasing CSA resulted in a decrease in the AC conductivity of the blends. This behaviour was explained in terms of the availability of a lone pair of electrons of the NH groups in the polyaniline, which are typically attacked by the electron-withdrawing sulfonic acid groups of CSA. …”

Metabolomics of Dynamic Changes in Insulin Resistance Before and After Exercise in PCOS by Anna Halama (545988)

“…Exercise improved VO2 max (p < 0.01) but did not alter weight. Amino acid profiles were unaffected by an acute increase in IR induced by the lipid infusion. …”

Investigation of the Effect of Exendin-4 on Oleic Acid-Induced Steatosis in HepG2 Cells Using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy by Olfa Khalifa (10914452)

“…HepG2 cells were made steatotic with 400 µM of oleic acid and then treated with 200 nM Ex-4 in order to reduce lipid accumulation. …”

Development of eco-friendly coating for the fabrication of high performing loose nanofiltration membranes for dye-contaminated wastewater treatment by Abedalkader Alkhouzaam (15842647)

“…<p>This study introduces highly efficient loose nanofiltration (LNF) membranes developed through a green synergistic combination of tannic acid (TA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), aimed at addressing the complex challenge of dye/salt fractionation in wastewater treatment. …”

Mutations in L-type amino acid transporter-2 support SLC7A8 as a novel gene involved in age-related hearing loss by Meritxell Espino Guarch (18810097)

“…SLC7A8/SLC3A2 heterodimer is a neutral amino acid exchanger. Here, we demonstrated that SLC7A8 is expressed in the mouse inner ear and that its ablation resulted in ARHL, due to the damage of different cochlear structures. …”

Finding novel targets for the treatment and reversal of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity by Imran Ramzan (15430807)

“…Individually, both valine (245 ± 33 to 105 ± 23 µmol/L; p < 0.0001), and leucine (130 ± 20 to 75 ± 13 µmol/L; p < 0.05), decreased significantly in response to the BCAA-restricted diet. …”

The Trace Element Composition of Size Fractionated Suspended Particulate Matter Samples from the Qatari EEZ of the Arabian Gulf: The Role of Atmospheric Dust by Oguz Yigiterhan (14151006)

“…Because surface seawater is supersaturated with respect to CaCO3 and acid soluble Ca is abundant in the particulate matter, we only used unleached dust for the lithogenic correction. …”

An additive manufacturing approach based on electrohydrodynamic printing to fabricate P3HT:PCBM thin films by Zulfikre Esa (19457344)

“…We report here on the fabrication of poly(3-hexylthiophene): phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (P3HT:PCBM) thin films through the electrohydrodynamic atomization (EHDA) process and its integration as absorber layer for organic solar cells. …”

Effect of 7-minute workout on weight and body composition by Mattar, L.

“…No changes were noted for mid-upper arm circumference or hand grip.The findings of this research show that even a very short duration workout affect the nutritional status in normal weight individuals who did not change any of their eating habits. This implies that even in normal weight individuals who perform the 7-minute workout, improvement through a decrease in waist circumference can be achieved thus leading to a better cardio-protective nutritional status. …”
