Short-term greenhouse emission lowering effect of biochars from solid organic municipal wastes by Rehrah D.

“…Two biochars produced from mixed materials at 300–500 °C for 2 h and used at 0.5–1% application rate performed the best in enhancing soil fertility parameters. A significant decrease in CO2 emission was observed in vials with soil–biochar mixtures, especially for biochars produced at 500 °C compared the corresponding raw materials which exhibited an exponential increase in the CO2 emission. …”

AMPK Activation Attenuates Albumin-induced Alterations in Renal Tubular Cells In Vitro by Allouch, Soumaya

“…In contrast, metformin co-treatment restored the levels of phosphorylated AMPK, and suppressed activation of AKT and P70S6K in NRK-52E cells exposed to albumin. Notably, metformin also prevented albumin-induced EMT; this was marked by a 50% decrease in a-SMA and a 60% increase in E-cadherin expression. …”

Effects of Climate and Atmospheric Nitrogen Deposition on Early to Mid-Term Stage Litter Decomposition Across Biomes by Kwon, Taeoh

“…The expected changes in macroclimate and N deposition at the global scale by the end of this century are estimated to increase the 12-month mass loss of easily decomposable litter by 1.1-3.5% and of the more stable substrates by 3.8-10.6%, relative to current mass loss. In contrast, expected changes in atmospheric N deposition will decrease the mid-term mass loss of high-quality litter by 1.4-2.2% and that of low-quality litter by 0.9-1.5% in the temperate biome. …”
