The mechanisms of resistance of anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx)-induced cytotoxicity in AML cells. (c2018) by Abou Harb, Monica

“…Our results indicate that vertical inhibition by SCH772984 rendered the resistant cell lines sensitive to the inhibition of the MAPK-pathway and showed an increased cytotoxic effect once used in combination with anthrax lethal toxin compared to the use of anthrax lethal toxin alone.…”

Valorization of Gas-To-Liquid Sludge as a Sustainable Soil Organic Amendment for Cotton Cultivation by Oumaima Mabrouk (17679435)

“…Accordingly, plants grown on GTL sludge-amended soils showed lower antioxidant activity despite a significant salinity increase. In addition, the concentrations of detected heavy metals in soil were within the standards’ limits, which did not pose environmental issues under the described experimental conditions. …”

The Impact of Sporting Events on Air Pollution: An Empirical Examination of National Football League Games by Nicholas Watanabe (19450285)

“…From this, multiple regression analysis was utilized to estimate whether the number of fans was related to changes in air pollution. (3) Results: The regression models found that Ozone and Nitrogen Dioxide levels increased as more individuals attended NFL games. Additional robustness checks and falsification tests suggest that the average NFL event results in an approximately two-percent increase in Ozone levels. (4) Conclusions: The findings from this study contribute to the literature by providing evidence that highly attended sporting events increase pollution levels in the areas near stadiums. …”

Targeting acute myeloid leukemia cells with novel photosensitive ruthenium-based metal-organic compounds. (c2015) by Azar, Daniel Fadi

“…Furthermore, we have attempted to examine the photochemical potential of our metal-organic compound model by combining L-II and L-III in the same metal complex, thus generating four final complexes with differing net charges (from +2 to -4), and examining their activities on a panel of AML cell lines with or without exposure to blue light. Of the four final complexes Ru-II3, Ru-II2-III, Ru-II-III2 and Ru-III3, only Ru-II3 and Ru-II2-III have shown significant activity against all tested cell lines in the dark, whereas photo-activation against ML2 has shown a marked increase of potency of all four complexes, even those shown to be biologically inert in the dark, reaching IC50 values in the nM range. …”

Role of two efflux proteins, ABCB1 and ABCG2 in blood-brain barrier transport of bromocriptine in a murine model of MPTP-induced dopaminergic degeneration by Milane, Aline

“…Studies of ABCB1 and ABCG2 activity showed that MPTP intoxication did not alter their functionality. Conversely, ABCG2 expression studied on brain capillaries from MPTP-treated mice was decreased (1.3-fold, p<0.05) and ABCB1 expression increased (1.43-fold, p<0.05) as an off-setting of brain transport. …”
