Induction of osteoclastogenesis and bone loss by human autoantibodies against citrullinated vimentin by Georgess, Dan

“…Affinity-purified human autoantibodies against mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV) not only bound to osteoclast surfaces, but also led to robust induction of osteoclastogenesis and bone-resorptive activity. Adoptive transfer of purified human MCV autoantibodies into mice induced osteopenia and increased osteoclastogenesis. …”

The impact of different acidic conditions and food substrates on <i>Listeria </i><i>monocytogenes</i> biofilms development and removal using nanoencapsulated carvacrol by Jina Yammine (17317048)

“…In food substrates, nanoencapsulated carvacrol induced lower log reductions (1.58–2.90) than the ones in TSB (2.02–3.61). These findings provide valuable insights into the impact of different acidic conditions on the development of <i>L. monocytogenes</i> biofilms on stainless steel surfaces and the potential application of nanoencapsulated carvacrol as a biofilm control agent in food processing environments.…”

A machine learning based study to assess bone health in a diabetic cohort by Saleh Musleh (15279190)

“…Higher levels of <u>BMC</u>, BMD from different body parts in the control group compared to the osteoporosis/osteopenia group indicate the protective effects of obesity on bone health in the Qatari diabetic cohort. Moreover, higher value of anthropometric measurements in troch, lumbar spine (L1, L2, L3, L4), pelvis and other body parts in the control group indicates that the WHO guideline can be applied to the Qatari diabetic cohort for the early detection of OP/OPN based on the proposed ML model. …”
