Superexchange Electron Transfer and Protein Matrix in the Charge-Separation Process of Photosynthetic Reaction Centers by Keisuke Saito (516747)

“…|<i>H</i>_{PheoD1···QA}| is significantly larger for the Pheo_D1-to-Q_A electron transfer via the unoccupied molecular orbitals of D2-Trp253 ([Trp]^•–-like intermediate state, 0.73 meV) compared to direct electron transfer (0.13 meV), suggesting that superexchange is the dominant mechanism in the PSII protein environment. …”

<b>Academic procrastination is linked to negative urgency traits: a fMRI resting-state approach</b> by Valeria Cancino (20765381)

“…</p><p dir="ltr"><i>Image preprocessing</i>: The first 216 volumes were acquired from the original 657 to get 5 minutes of rs-fMRI recordings. Preprocessing was carried out on the CONN toolbox (Functional Connectivity SPM Toolbox 2017, McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, <a href="https://web.conn-toolbox.org/" target="_blank"><u>https://web.conn-toolbox.org/</u></a>) following the pipeline for volume-based analyses (Whitfield-Gabrieli & Nieto-Castanon, 2012).The preprocessing steps included 1) <i>realignment and unwarping</i>, functional volumes were realigned to the first volume for motion correction; 2) <i>outlier identification</i> using Artifact Detection Tools, computing scrubbing parameters to Tbe included as covariates in the denoising step; 3) <i>functional direct segmentation and normalization</i>, the mean functional volume was estimated in realignment and unwarping, and the anatomical image was normalized to MNI standard space and segmented by tissue (gray matter-GM, white matter-WM, and cerebrospinal fluid-CFS), resulting in a resampled voxel size of 2 mm for functional data and 1 mm for anatomical data; 4) <i>functional smoothing</i>, functional data were smoothed using a Gaussian kernel of 8 mm full width at half maximum; 5) <i>denoising</i> step was performed on time series to remove the effect of nuisance covariates such as WM and CFS, estimated subject-motion parameters, outlier scans (scrubbing), and session effects; 6) a <i>temporal band-pass filter</i> (0.008 to 0.09 Hz) was then applied to remove temporal frequencies from the blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal.…”

A Role for microRNA-155 Modulation in the Anti-HIV-1 Effects of Toll-Like Receptor 3 Stimulation in Macrophages by Gokul Swaminathan (134124)

“…We found that poly(I∶C)- and LPS-stimulation of MDMs abrogated infection by CCR5-using, macrophage-tropic HIV-1, and by vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein-pseudotyped HIV-1 virions, while TLR2, TLR7 or TLR9 agonists only partially reduced infection to varying extent. …”

SOD1 expression is dependent on AMPK phosphorylation at residue Thr172. by Silvia Siteni (10344070)

“…(C) AMPK-p Thr 172 and (D) SOD1 expression significantly decrease in presence of CC treatment, suggesting metformin increases the expression of SOD1 in the nucleus, dependent on the phosphorylation of AMPK (two-way ANOVA, ***p<0.001, ****p<0.0001). …”
