Decreased methylglyoxal-mediated protein glycation in the healthy aging mouse model of ectopic expression of UCP1 in skeletal muscle by Jinit, Masania

“…We found both young and aged HSA-mUCP1 mice had decreased advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) formed from MG, lysine-derived Nε(1-carboxyethyl)lysine (CEL) and arginine-derived hydroimidazolone, MG-H1, whereas protein glycation by glucose forming Nε-fructosyl-lysine (FL) was increased ca. 2-fold, compared to wildtype controls. …”

Follow up and comparative assessment of IgG, IgA, and neutralizing antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 between mRNA-vaccinated naïve and unvaccinated naturally infected individuals ov... by Salma, Younes

“…At the 7th month, there was a significant decline in antibody responses among VN individuals, but not NI individuals, with a minimum decrease of 3.7-fold (p < 0.001). Among VN individuals, anti-S1 IgA levels began to decrease significantly (1.4-fold; p = 0.007) after two months, and both NtAb and S-RBD IgG levels began to decline significantly (NtAb: 2.0-fold; p = 0.042, S-RBD IgG: 2.4-fold; p = 0.035) after three months. …”

Correlation between delta-endotoxin and proteolytic activities produced by Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki growing in an economic production medium by Ennouri, Karim

“…Interestingly, delta-endotoxin production of BUPM13-1, BUPM13-2 and BUPM13-3 was markedly improved when compared to the wild strain BUPM 13, reaching 2.1-fold, 3.69-fold and 8.13-fold, respectively. Maximal protease activity (540-2468 UI) obtained by BUPM5-1 and BUPM5-2 was 2.34-fold and 10.7-fold, respectively, more than that obtained by the wild strain BUPM5 with a drastic decrease of their delta-endotoxin production. …”

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

“…Similarly, the phosphorylation of AKT and P70S6K (a downstream target of mTOR) was increased by more than 1.5-fold in cells subjected to albumin treatment. In addition, albumin treatment caused a dose-dependent reduction in AMPK phosphorylation and about 66% decrease in the expression of autophagy marker LC3-II. …”

Variations in respiratory syncytial virus activity following the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in Qatar. by Pérez-López, Andrés

“…Despite the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions in Qatar in October-December 2020, the detection of RSV was reduced ∼25-fold compared with 2019. This dramatic decrease during the typical RSV season could be related to international travel restrictions.…”

Host genetic variants potentially associated with SARS-CoV-2: A multi-population analysis by Smatti, Maria K.

“…Remarkably, Africans seem to carry extremely lower frequencies of SARS-CoV-1 susceptibility alleles, reaching to 32-fold decrease compared to other populations. Conclusion: Multiple genetic variants, which could potentially modulate SARS-CoV-2 infection, are significantly variable between populations, with the lowest frequency observed among Africans. …”

Extraction and characterization of biofunctional lignocellulosic fibers from Pulicaria undulata plant and the effect of alkali treatment on their bio-physicochemical properties by Mohammed, Alsafran

“…In contrast, alkali-treated fibers showed a significant decrease in radical scavenging activity (almost 7–8 fold) and reducing power potential (6-fold) and exhibited no antifungal activity, potentially due to the loss of bioactive components such as lignin and essential oils. …”
