PD-L1 Expression in Human Breast Cancer Stem Cells Is Epigenetically Regulated through Posttranslational Histone Modifications by Pramod Darvin (153341)

“…In summary, EMT-associated overexpression of PD-L1 was partially independent of promoter CpG methylation and more likely to be dependent on posttranslational histone modifications. …”

eIF4A inhibition prevents the onset of cytokine-induced muscle wasting by blocking the STAT3 and iNOS pathways by Zvi Cramer (10742876)

“…These effects are likely dependent on the inhibition of eIF4A activity since we observed similar results using PatA. …”

Fluid-Structure-Acoustic coupling analysis for external laminar and turbulent fluid flows by Tohid, Adibi

“…The results indicate that the transmission loss is 27% more at the elastic plate’s highest position. By decreasing the length of the elastic plate by 50%, the mean transmission loss is reduced by 9%. …”

Protein Glycation in Plants—An Under-Researched Field with Much Still to Discover by Naila Rabbani (291722)

“…We consider dicarbonyl stress, the functional vulnerability of the plant proteome to arginine-directed glycation and the likely role of methylglyoxal-mediated glycation in the activation of the unfolded protein response in plants. …”

Optoelectronic properties of highly porous silver oxide thin film by Ahmad Al-Sarraj (17151007)

“…The Ag₂O phase of silver oxide appears after 300 s of oxidation under the same conditions, while the optical transparency of the thin film decreases as plasma etching time increases. The sheet resistance of the final film is influenced by the oxidation time and the plasma application periodicity.…”

Quantitative Compressibility Effects in Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Circular Contacts by Habchi, W.

“…The results reconfirm the well-known observations that minimum film thickness is very little affected by lubricant compressibility while central film thickness decreases linearly with the increase in volume compression of the lubricant. …”

Analyzing the Influence of Climate and Anthropogenic Development on Vegetation Cover in the Coastal Ecosystems of GCC by Abhilash Dutta Roy (22466830)

“…Our results revealed significant changes in land cover, as seen by an increase in artificial built-up areas by 15.5% in two decades and a corresponding decrease in bareland and dense vegetation. We also observed an increase in mangrove and seagrass areas, likely due to recent conservation and afforestation efforts. …”

Innovative strategies to reduce traffic related injuries and deaths in youth by Joanne Banfield (19794507)

“…Studies have shown young drivers are more likely to underestimate the probability of specific risks caused by traffic situations, as well as to overestimate their own driving skills making them more vulnerable to trauma. …”

Stemming cardiovascular diseases in Qatar by Nature Research (16552612)

“…Many of the heart attack and stroke patients had diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, and/or were smokers, whereas controls were much less likely to have these factors.</p><p>All of these factors are associated with reduced physical activity and increased consumption of high-fat foods. …”

Novel Wire Gripper for Robotics Picking of Small Green Parts From Powder Bed of Binder Jet Metal Additive Manufacturing by Abdulhamid Mathkur (22467373)

“…Our work focuses on cutting down postprocessing times as we strive to reach higher levels of productivity. …”

An efficient claim management assurance system using EPC contract based on improved monarch butterfly optimization models by K. Mukilan (22224793)

“…Conventional construction models typically optimize only a single objective, such as time, cost, or delay, which may not effectively enhance overall performance. …”

The thioredoxin homolog YbbN functions as a chaperone rather than as an oxidoreductase by Kthiri, Fatoum

“…Escherichia coli contains two thioredoxins, Trx1 and Trx2, and a thioredoxin-like protein, YbbN, which presents a strong homology in its N-terminal part with thioredoxins, and possesses a 20 kDa C-terminal part of unknown function. …”

Prediction of biogas production from chemically treated co-digested agricultural waste using artificial neural network by Fares Almomani (12585685)

“…An ANN model consists of three layers, 15 neutrons and 260 <i>epochs</i> accurately predict the CMP with 99.1% of data within ±10% deviation of the mean experimental value. The developed model can be used to forecast the CMP as a function of operating temperature, the substrate composition, and chemical dose, and can be used for scaling-up and cost analysis purposes.…”

Evaluation of Workability and Structuration Rate of Locally Developed 3D Printing Concrete Using Conventional Methods by Ahmed, Sara

“…Therefore, the main objective of this research was to develop 3D printing mixes with different aggregate-to-binder (a/b) ratios (1.2, 1.5, and 1.8) and evaluate it in terms of its fresh printing properties, which include the workability, extrudability, setting time, open time, and buildability. The compressive strengths of cast and printed specimens were also tested to determine the effect of the layering process. …”
