Production and investigation of flexible nanofibers of sPEEK/PVP loaded with RuO2 nanoparticles by Chamakh, Mariem

“…Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) demonstrated the successful fabrication of nanofibers with diameter range of 140-240 nm as well as nanoparticles with average sizes within the range of 6 nm and 9 nm. The effect of annealing and RuO2 addition was illustrated by the decrease in fibers diameter. …”

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. …”

The Cellular Interplay Between Na+/H+ Exchanger Isoform I and Osteopontin in Cardiac Hypertrophy by Abdelaziz, Iman Ahmed

“…Protein content and ANP mRNA expression were also significantly increased in NHE1-infected cardiomyocytes, however they were significantly abrogated in the presence of OPN-siRNA (87.8±12.58% vs. 136.8±11% NHE1-infected) and (64.6±19.9% vs. 247.7±30.81% NHE1-infected). OPN appeared to contribute to NHE1-induced CH independent of extracellular-signal-regulated kinases, p90-ribosomal-S6 kinase and protein kinase B (Akt). …”

Synthesizing New Anodes From Qatalum's 1st Cut Spl by Hani Holozadah, Abdullah

“…The idea is to mix the extracted graphitic material with new binder materials e.g. o-phenylenediamine (C6H4(NH2)2), polyaniline or phosphorous (also a mixture of two or all of them) to increase the thermal and chemical stability and electrical conductivity of these new anodes compared to the currently used anodes in Qatalum (Qatalum uses 70% petroleum coke + 30% Coal Tar Pitch (CTP) as a binder). …”
