Increased cellular protein modification by methylglyoxal activates endoplasmic reticulum-based sensors of the unfolded protein response حسب Xue, Mingzhan

"…Herein we assessed the effect of high glucose concentration and related increased cellular MG on activation status of IRE1α, PERK and ATF6. Human aortal endothelial cells and HMEC-1 microvascular endothelial cells were incubated in low and high glucose concentration to model blood glucose control, with increase or decrease of MG by silencing or increasing expression of glyoxalase 1 (Glo1), which metabolizes MG. …"

Modelling the asymmetric responses of price level to oil price changes in Qatar حسب Mrabet, Zouhair

"…To achieve that, we proceed by employing a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach on data during the period 1990Q1-2014Q4. The estimation results show evidences of an incomplete and asymmetric influence of oil price on price level in the long term. …"

Effect of hyperglycemia on EPCs function and regenerative ability حسب Hendawi, Hadeel Khalil

"…For that, we studied BOECs viability, response to shear stress, angiogenesis ability, and barrier function under normoglycemic (5.5mM) and hyperglycemic (25mM) conditions. The results have shown significant effects of chronic hyperglycemic conditions on cell proliferation (n=3, p<0.05), and migration (n=3, p<0.05) which were decreased when compared to control. …"

Enhancing the production of biogas through anaerobic co-digestion of agricultural waste and chemical pre-treatments حسب Almomani F.

"…The results revealed that the highest cumulative methane production (CMP) of 297.99 NL/kgVS can be generated by co-digestion of ASWs and CD at a ratio of 60:40. Further improvement was achieved via alkalinity treatment with 1.0 g of NaHCO3/gVS leading to decrease in lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose contents of feedstock by 3.5%, 10.5% and 15.9%, respectively, converting them to soluble fractions and improving the CMP by 11.2–29.7% based on substrate quality. …"
