Effects of acute and chronic exercise on immunological parameters in the elderly aged: Can physical activity counteract the effects of aging? by Sellami M.

“…The concept is that some lifestyle strategies such as high-intensity exercise training may prevent disease through the attenuation of immunosenescence. In this context, we take a top-down approach and review the effect of exercise and training on immunological parameters in elderly at rest and during exercise in humans, and how they respond to different modes of training. …”

Rebound effects undermine carbon footprint reduction potential of autonomous electric vehicles by Onat, Nuri C.

“…However, they are likely to increase road transport activity and life cycle greenhouse emissions, due to several rebound effects. In this study, we investigate tradeoffs between improved fuel economy and rebound effects from a life-cycle perspective. …”

Subchannel Assignment and Power Allocation for Time-Varying Fog Radio Access Network with NOMA by Qiu, Yu

“…The coordination between NOMA and F-RAN provides powerful support to extensive application of augmented/virtual reality (AR/VR), vehicular networking, intelligent medical and other emerging applications. In this paper, we focus on a noncooperative game resource optimization to decrease the complexity while the dynamic optimization problem is decoupled to subchannel assignment and power allocation. …”

Elaeagnus angustifolia Plant Extract Inhibits Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Induces Apoptosis via HER2 Inactivation and JNK Pathway in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Cells by Jabeen, Ayesha

“…Our data revealed that extract inhibits cell proliferation and deregulates cell-cycle progression of these two cancer cell lines. extract also prevents the progression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), an important event for cancer invasion and metastasis; this is accompanied by upregulations of E-cadherin and β-catenin, in addition to downregulations of vimentin and fascin, which are major markers of EMT. Thus, extract causes a drastic decrease in cell invasion ability of SKBR3 and ZR75-1 cancer cells. …”

Superior photocatalytic activity of Cu doped NiWO4 for efficient degradation of benzene in air even under visible radiation by Tri N.L.M.

“…This was because Cu effectively acted as novel dopant, which not only affected valence band (VB) top and conduction band (CB) bottom of NiWO4 but also formed a medium energy level between CB and VB of the NiWO4 to decrease its energy band gap and electron-hole recombination rate. …”
