Rhus coriaria induces senescence and autophagic cell death in breast cancer cells through a mechanism involving p38 and ERK1/2 activation by El Hasasna, Hussain

“…Furthermore, we found that while both autophagy inhibitors abolished p38 phosphorylation, only CQ led to significant decrease in pERK1/2. Finally, RCE induced DNA damage and reduced mutant p53, two events that preceded autophagy. …”

The Formation of Sulfide Scales on Carbon Steel in Saturated H2S by Al-Qahtani, Noora

“…The electrochemical reaction commonly contains three stages: first, the reactant transported from the solution (bulk) to the metal surface; then the transfer of the charge reaction on the surface, followed by the reaction product transported away from the iron surface to the bulk solution or the formation and development of the corrosion product which then can decrease the corrosion rate. Development of a robust corrosion model to predict the corrosion process in H2S these requires a mechanistic understanding of all these elements. …”

Study of the Ion Interclation Mechanism in Mxene Membrane for the Water Treatment Applications by Helal, Mohamed Ibrahim Elsayed Ali Hussein

“…Unfortunately, these membranes can swell and shrink when in contact with water or under high temperatures. MXene (Ti3C2) is a two-dimensional early transition metal carbide-derived by the etching of MAX (Ti3AlC2) phases in fluoride-containing solutions, and it can be intercalated with cations due to its surface termination that makes MXene sheets Negatively charged. …”
