The effect of acute ophiobolin A treatment on HO-mediated inflammatory processes by Posa, Aniko

“…After 24 h of the administrations, inflammatory mediators such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) enzyme as well as heme oxygenase (HO) activity were measured in both plasma and cardiac tissue, along with serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). We found that OPA caused a significant elevation in the concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-, increased MPO activity and decreased HO enzyme activity in the plasma. …”

Involvement of caveolae in hyperglycemia-induced changes in adiponectin and leptin expressions in vascular smooth muscle cells by Ola, El Atab

“…Rat aorta organ culture was used to investigate the effect of hyperglycemia on APN and leptin protein expression in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) using Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. Hyperglycemia lead to a significant increase in APN synthesis in VSMCs, mainly through caveolae, but this increase failed to provide vascular protection because of the decreased expression of APN receptors, especially AdipoR2, which was assessed by qPCR. …”

The maxima in northerly wind speeds and wave heights over the Arabian Sea, the Arabian/Persian Gulf and the Red Sea derived from 40 years of ERA5 data by Aboobacker, V.M.

“…Recent studies point out the importance of northerly winds and waves in the Arabian Sea, especially those due to shamal and makran events in addition to the northeast monsoon system. We have analyzed climatology and trends of northerly maximum wind speed and significant wave height (Hs) in the Arabian Sea and the connected marginal seas, Arabian/Persian Gulf and the Red Sea, during non-monsoon season derived from 40 years of ERA5 wind and wave data, and estimated monthly, annual and decadal extreme climate and their trends. …”
